How it works – - Fitness / Weight loss

Inspiring fitness and weight loss

Exercising at altitudes of 3,000m or above (real or simulated) burns 30% more calories for the same sea-level exercise time and effort!

Altitude training is now for everyone

Previously the benefits of altitude training have only been available for elite athletes and the rich & famous! That was until Sydney Altitude Training brought the future of health and fitness to Mosman.

Now at Sydney Altitude Training you can utilise this proven, time efficient training method in the same way the world’s best athletes have for decades at a convenient location and at an affordable price.

Exercise is a key part of staying healthy and managing weight. Strong scientific evidence indicates training at Altitude (real or simulated) has a much greater metabolic cost for the same mechanical stress (i.e., load on joints and muscular exertion) as sea-level exercise.

Many key benefits of sea-level exercise have been proven to be significantly increased when the same exercise is performed at altitude (real or simulated). This makes Simulated Altitude Training a ‘must have’ tool to include in your health, fitness and weight loss strategy. It will take your fitness and weight loss efforts to new heights!

Key altitude training benefits for athletes in the busiest race of all
- the race of everyday life:

tickImproved aerobic fitness – In response to exercising in simulated altitude the body adapts to increase its capacity to deliver and utilise oxygen through several changes including improved ventilation, blood oxygen carrying capacity and greater cellular efficiency with increased energy production per litre of oxygen used.

tickGreater energy burn for no extra effort – At simulated altitudes over 3,000m up to 30% more calories are burned for the same exercise time and effort performed at sea-level.

tickBetter use of body fuel stores – fat and carbs – The greater oxygen efficiency resulting from altitude training enhances overall fat utilisation for a given intensity.

tickReduced injury risk – Being able to achieve up to a 30% greater metabolic and cardiovascular load for the same mechanical loading performed at sea-level means you don’t have to work your joints so hard.

Regardless of your current fitness and weight loss strategy, Sydney Altitude Training provides a time efficient means of achieving your goals. Contact us…
