Altitude room
An altitude training camp is part of the classic preparation for a tour, a Mount Everest summit ascent or to prepare for a high-altitude competition. The training camps are associated with travel and costs. You are also separated from home, your family and the center of your life and exposed to the weather conditions.
Why go to all the trouble when you can have it at home? With a little creativity and a good carpenter, you can simply set up your own sheepfold, a small office, an exercise bike or a treadmill in a room within a room, no larger than 40m3 .
This is because the reduced oxygen in the room, which is supplied by a compressor about 6-10 meters away from theroom and feeds the correct oxygen-nitrogen mixture into the room air via a 1 inch pipe, stimulates the body to produce more red blood cells. These can then potentially transport more oxygen to the muscles. This increases the ability to perform better,
The altitude is programmed with a panel on the wall, so the generator switches on early enough so that the desired altitude climate of e.g. 2’850m prevails in the room at 22h.

It is important to always keep the body in the adaptation phase, i.e. to build up the HB, or then reduce it again. From the age of 50, the HB in the blood is reduced. environment that safely supports you in terms of longevity.
Investment
For a 40m3 room, the investment is around CHF 22,000 for the compressor and taxes. by means of a panel on the wall. Plus a few hours of craftsmanship to make everything look nice. to be set up.
