Sleep altitude2,000 m → 2,800 m
Taper before the race10 days

An Ironman requires months of build-up. A six-week altitude block fits the final phase, with a ten-day taper before the race. Research in well-trained triathletes shows more erythropoiesis and better performance after two weeks of live high, train low.

“Prima service. De telefoon wordt opgepakt en er wordt duidelijk advies gegeven. Het effect is lastig meetbaar maar voelde me veel beter op hoogte.”

Service meer dan prima !!! Dit was maar een testfase. Hierbij komt ook nog dat ik het op komende wedstrijden + stages niet kan ervaren aangezien deze allemaal afgelast zijn.

    Cooperation and referral

    Training advice for endurance athletes and for treks and climbs above 3,000 metres: training at simulated altitude as a performance stimulus and as pre-acclimatisation, with an altitude training schedule for the preparation.

Frequently asked questions

When do I stop sleeping at altitude before my race?

Athletes usually stop 7 to 10 days before their peak race so the body is fully recovered. Mountaineers keep sleeping at altitude until just before departure so the acclimatisation is as fresh as possible.
