The
"At-Rest" HRS is a boon for the disabled, obese and rehab patients, who can now
exercise without lifting a finger.
The patented Hypoxic Room System, or HRS, developed by Hypoxico Inc., is an extension of
the time-proven hypoxic training method. It comes as a 1- or 2-user softwall enclosure
(the Standard System), or can be installed in any existing room or enclosure, providing an
active exercise environment for the professional athlete, sports clinic, spa and
health-and-fitness club. The oxygen-depleted environment HRS in the HER is the same you
would find at an elevation of 8,500 ft, such as in the Rockies. Treadmills, stationary
bikes, punching bags and other equipment can be used inside the HRS.

The word
"hypoxia" means low oxygen delivery to bodily tissue. The process of the hypoxic
method can briefly be described as follows: when we inhale lower-oxygen air, the brain
responds to this change and instructs the body to increase pulmonary ventilation and the
production of red blood cells. Red blood cells deliver oxygen to the tissues which combine
with stored nutrients to produce energy. Unlike the constant hypoxia present in the
mountains, the "intermittent" hypoxia of the HRS gradually adapts the body to
perform normally in a low-oxygen environment, and substantially better in a normal oxygen,
or "normoxic," environment. The body is thus adapted to both environments. |
