Now Air Fit High Altitude Training Background

The advanced technology offers numerous benefits; from sports performance and rehabilitation to more energy and better sleep via a drug free option that can be used with little to no disruption to normal daily routines.
With health and wellness conditions like obesity, diabetes and stress on the rise people are turning to innovation and science for solutions without relying on prescription medicines.

Until recently, simulated altitude training equipment has been limited to the Elite Athlete. Now Airfit is the most advanced altitude simulation system available and designed with everyone in mind. To access the benefits of altitude training you are no longer confined to tents or chambers or have to travel to real altitude. Now Airfit simulators replicate altitude quickly, safely and efficiently from the comfort of a chair and in only an hour a day.

Now Airfit simulated altitude training brings the mountains to you.

Now Air Fit Advantage

Now Airfit has developed a simulator and programs that work and are within reach of most people from a cost perspective, won't disrupt family life, do not require any travel, will respond to each individual and can be fitted into a user?s day without significant disruption.

Designed to provide long-term physiological benefits.

What is involved in doing Now Airfit?

Now Air Fit is a simple and convenient way to fit the benefits of altitude training into your life with little to no disruption. The Program is designed to be approximately 50 hours for a full year. This is made up of an initial 15 days (one hour session each day) followed by booster sessions (5 one hour sessions) every 6-8 weeks to maintain the benefits.

What happens during the session?

The effects of altitude are many and varied. A person's response is influenced by a number of factors both physiological and environmental. It is therefore imperative that any simulator can read and react to each users response each and every time continuously.

Now Airfit is the only simulator in the world that can deliver a customized Program that responds to the user during each of their sessions.

Simply sit, relax and breathe while the Now Airfit simulator does all the work. The entire process is passive which makes it ideal for people from all walks of life. It is not dependent on your existing fitness level. Each user has their own medical grade mask, which they can either strap on or hold to their face (covers mouth and nose only).

During the hour long session the air is delivered in pre set intervals of high altitude and normal air. During the session the amount of oxygen in your blood is constantly monitored and this measurement controls the amount of altitude each user gets. While you are getting high altitude air (low oxygen), the amount of oxygen in your blood will drop to a pre set level, the speed of the drop is different for everyone but the Now Airfit simulator has artificial intelligence making it possible to automatically react and adjust the altitude up and down as required. The result; every user receives an individualised program based on how they respond to altitude. The benefits are cumulative over the course of the program.

The Now Airfit Program is fully researched and used by thousands of happy clients. The amount of research into the benefits of altitude is significant; the majority is focused on sports performance and rehabilitation, with less into the health and wellness aspects, although there is research and plenty of anecdotal support for these areas. Now Airfit has published independent research trials run in both sports performance and asthma - with further research being conducted in conjunction with the Mayo Clinic.
