⛰️Preparing for altitude? Start by understanding how your body responds.

Altitude affects everyone differently.

It’s not just about fitness.

Your response to low oxygen depends on your physiology, genetics, training background, and how much time you’ve had to acclimatize.

That’s why even well-trained athletes can struggle when they ascend too quickly.

📊Our assessments, including the Altitude Sensitivity Test, give you a clearer picture of where you’re starting, how your body responds, and what your training should focus on next.

Better data. Better preparation.

The 2-hour marathon barrier has officially been broken. 🏃‍♂️

At the 2026 London Marathon, Sabastian Sawe ran 1:59:30, with Yomif Kejelcha finishing close behind in 1:59:41. Two athletes, one historic race.

But the lesson isn’t just about elite speed.

It’s about what happens when training is structured, recovery is respected, and every detail supports the goal.

That matters whether you’re chasing a world record, a personal best, or your next breakthrough in training.

Train with purpose.
Build with consistency.

⛰️Planning your first high-altitude climb?
Explore our Mountain Training Programs through the link in bio.

Altitude Ambassador Thomas shares his take on the best mountains for beginners, and which ones he wouldn’t recommend as a first climb.

The right objective depends on your fitness, experience, timeline, and how well you handle altitude.

At Altitude, we help you prepare with structure: altitude exposure, endurance, strength, and objective testing. 📊

Beginner doesn’t mean easy.
It means choosing the right mountain and preparing properly.

🏃‍♂️A great night with Toronto's running community.

Last week, we joined Toronto for the first annual MEC Community Spring Run-OFF.

The event brought together local run clubs, runners, and outdoor brands for a community run, footwear demos, and post-run connections.

At the Altitude booth, we put runners to the test with our Force Plate Challenge, where participants tested their explosiveness, reactive strength, and power output for a chance to win a VO₂ Max Test 🏆📊

Thanks to MEC Toronto, Altra, Toronto Trail Runners, Curre Club, and everyone who came out! 🤝

The Toronto Marathon just happened… 🏁
and recovery starts now.

Most runners swing one of two ways:
→ Do nothing for a week
→ Run the next day 🏃‍♂️

Both miss the point.

Recovery isn’t about extremes —
it’s about a smart transition back.

Move light.
Sleep more 😴
Fuel properly.

That’s how you come back stronger for the next one.

⛰️ Trek vs trek. Which one’s tougher?

Our Altitude member andcambassador Thomas compares the climbs and treks he’s taken on, choosing which felt more demanding.

Each one brings something different:
distance, elevation, technical sections.

From the Inca Trail and EBC to Kilimanjaro, Cotopaxi, and Island Peak - each climb has added a different layer of experience.

With bigger objectives ahead,
Thomas is getting ready for Kilimanjaro, with Manaslu coming up in September.

Follow along for more climbs, training, and preparation tips.

🥊 For Will “The Butcher” Bardsley, the goal is clear:
national championships, international competition, and the Olympic stage.

The path there is built in the weekly work.
Session by session. Block by block.
Staying consistent long enough for the training to add up.

⛰️ At Altitude, that process happens in a hypoxic environment - adding demand while the training stays structured.

For combat athletes, this can support endurance across rounds, recovery between efforts, and sustained output as the fight progresses.

We’re proud to be part of your journey, Will 💪 can’t wait to see what’s next!

Getting back into running this spring? 🏃‍♂️ Hold back early.

After time off, jumping back into your old pace or volume is where most setbacks start—tight hips, sore knees, and lingering fatigue.

Small mistakes early can cost you weeks of progress.

Start simple:
• Shorter, easier sessions
• Gradual volume increases
• Consistent strength and mobility

At Altitude, we guide your return with structured programming and performance data.

⛰️ Altitude adds another layer—helping you build endurance without unnecessary strain.

Train with intention from the start.

📊 “I think you can always improve”

That’s how Altitude member Will ""The Butcher"" Bardsley approaches his training.

⛰️ At Altitude, training in a hypoxic environment increases the demand - while keeping each session structured and intentional.

The focus stays clear:
power, conditioning, and recovery between rounds.

And over time, that shows:
- More conditioning across rounds
- Faster recovery between efforts
- The ability to maintain output deeper into a fight

It’s been great to watch the consistency Will brings into his training week after week.
