WATCH: Altitude Training for Boxing

As boxers and coaches become more familiar with altitude training, we have launched our ‘It takes more than a mask’. Over a number of articles, a team of experts will be reviewing the benefits and preferred methods to improve a boxers fitness.

We’ll be answering questions such as:

• What effect does exercising at altitude have on the body?
• Why do athletes train at altitude?
• How could boxers use altitude training?
• What are altitude tents and how do they work?
• How do we use our altitude tent?
• What are altitude masks and how do they work?
• Are altitude masks useful for boxers?

Watch our boxers use the altitude tent at Sheffield Hallam University in the video below.
