WHY TRAIN HERE AT "ALTITUDE-CAMP"
Simple Answer - 8,500 Feet / 2,600 Meters Above Sea Level
Elite athletes from all sports recognize the importance of Altitude Training. They see it as a vital part of their preparation for their major events of the season. For years, researchers have proven that Altitude Training, as part of an overall training plan, does improve endurance for most every sporting athlete.
Up until now, Altitude Training could only be achieved two ways
- Take a trip to far away places like Morocco and South America
for extended periods of time - and at great expense to the athlete.
- Purchase very expensive Altitude Tents. These tents certainly do work, but they can be uncomfortable at the best of times. Also, one cannot 'train' very well in a normal tent.
So, what is the solution ?
We think we have the perfect solution for athletes looking
for the ideal location for their Altitude Training. We have found a
location that is at a very ideal altitude of 8,500 Feet above sea
level. Researchers have indicated that the optimal altitude for
'Sleeping High' is in the range of 7,000 Feet to 9,000 Feet. Any
lower, and your body does not adapt to altitude as well as it could.
Any higher, and sleep quality / recovery becomes an issue. We
believe 8,500 feet above sea level is the sweet spot for your
training.
What is so good about our location ? Simple... We are also just
20-25 minutes from the prime training altitude of 5,000 Feet. Yes,
within half an hour, you have access to limitless training terrain -
all at around 5,000 feet - This is "Living High - Training Low" at
it's best !!!
You want another reason ? We are also located close to civilization
- Nederland Colorado is just 5 minutes away; Boulder is just 25
minutes and Denver is a little over 45 minutes. No more isolation in
far away places in foreign countries or in the middle of the
mountains with no access to lower altitudes. We have access to High
Altitude AND Low Altitude as well as being close to civilization. We
can safely say that we have the best spot in the United States for
serious Altitude Training!!!
You will find that our prime location, our fantastic accommodations,
our organic and locally grown produce and everything else we
provide, is second to none. We want you to make our home your home
while you are away from yours. We understand the stress of being
away from home for weeks at a time. We want to make that time as
comfortable and as productive as possible.
