Altitude training for everyone. Increasing vitality
Promoting health. Improving well-being
The effects of altitude training.
In endurance sports, altitude training (hypoxic training) has long been known as a measure to improve performance and has therefore been used successfully by many competitive athletes for decades.
What changes with increasing altitude?
With increasing altitude the air pressure decreases. This results from a reduced number of oxygen molecules in the breathing air. A cubic meter of breathing air at altitude has a lower proportion of oxygen than at sea level. This means that with increasing altitude, the oxygen content in the breathing air gradually decreases, and in simple terms, the air becomes thinner. With increasing altitude, the organism receives less and less oxygen per breath. The body therefore tries to keep up with this by faster breathing and an increased pulse rate in order to supply all cells with sufficient oxygen.
Why is altitude training effective?
In height training, the body primarily adapts to the oxygen-depleted air (hypoxia) through the increased production of red blood cells (erythrocytes). With an increased number of red blood cells, more oxygen can be transported through the body, the muscles and ultimately into the cells. This results in a significant increase in performance.
Is altitude training intended only for competitive athletes?
The use of altitude training has long since ceased to be exclusive for competitive sports. Many doctors, nonmedical practitioners, therapists, fitness studios and health-conscious people use the profitable effects of high altitude training for their own benefit or for the benefit of their patients. Height training is said to have a multitude of health-promoting properties, especially in the therapeutic field. In addition to improving the regulation of the autonomic nervous system, it should also lead to faster regeneration of the mitochondria, lower blood pressure and stimulate the fat metabolism, thus accelerating weight reduction.
Do I have to go to the mountains for altitude training?
Thanks to 21st century technology, this is no longer an absolute necessary. MITOVIT® Hypoxic Training allows you to simulate altitude training at any time, relaxed and at rest. At intervals, low-oxygen and normal air or oxygen-rich air is breathed via a breathing mask. MITOVIT® is one of the most advanced hypoxic training systems on the market. It is easy to use, allows quick visual control of the training progress and offers you an integrated real-time HRV measurement with parasympathetic activity display.

Training during relaxation
The MITOVIT® hypoxic training takes place completely relaxed, preferably in a semi-recumbent position. Low-oxygen and oxygen-rich/normoxic air is breathed at intervals via a breathing mask.
Oxygen saturation is measured in parallel via two pulse oximeters to ensure the greatest possible safety at all times. General hypoxia tolerance varies greatly from person to person. Therefore, before the first hypoxic training, the fully automated hypoxia test integrated in the MITOVIT® system should be performed to determine the oxygen concentration individually for the person. The breathing mask offers optimal wearing comfort and is easy to put on. The two pulse oximeters should be attached to the same hand. These are extra soft and comfortable to wear. Due to the long cable, there is great freedom of movement during training. The graphic below shows the visualization of the hypoxia test. In the third hypoxia phase, the oxygen concentration of 12.5% was used to reach an 85% oxygen saturation. Subsequently, the process continues in biofeedback mode.
Fully automatic hypoxia test
By default, the hypoxia test is started with an oxygen concentration of 15%. The oxygen content is then reduced by 0.5% every 2 1/2 minutes. This continues until an oxygen saturation in the blood of 85% or the set value between 77% - 93% SpO2 is reached. MITOVIT® stores this value in the background and performs a biofeedback session for the remaining time. In the fully automatic hypoxia test, MITOVIT® gets to know the person and stores the individual values determined for him, so that the subsequent training sessions can be optimized fully automatically.
Intuitive user interface
MITOVIT® offers you an intuitive user interface so that you or your practice personnel can easily operate the system and make the correct settings.
