Designed to begin 5-weeks prior to your endeavor, the training begins by establishing a personal baseline for some important breath metrics, including a body oxygen level test, carbon dioxide tolerance test, and maximum breathlessness test. Don’t worry, we go through these in detail in the course.
Each week, you’ll train using protocols to improve these metrics, while also learning breath-based mindfulness practices that will serve you during and after your adventure. You’ll come out of the program more mentally resilient and emotionally intelligent; this is not ‘just’ about altitude.
Week 1: Establish Your Baseline Breath Metrics and Begin with High Altitude Simulation Training
Week 2: Discuss How Breathwork Addresses Altitude Challenges, Build on the Training with Sport-Specific Protocols
Week 3: Continue with the Sport-Specific Protocols, Push for Breath Assessment Improvements
Week 4: Our Most Intense Week, Mental Fitness for High Altitude (and life!)
Week 5: Final Push for Physiological Adaptations In Preparation for the Altitude
The course concludes with a brief training on how to apply proper breathing techniques during your high altitude adventure.
