Improved Athletic Performance

Would you like to have improved athletic performance? Ask any athlete, and they will tell you that their breathing is key to their success.

Breathing functionally in sports  can mean all the difference to you. The Oxygen Advantage™ (OA) technique for sports is called Simulation of High-altitude Training, and simulates training at an altitude of 4,000-5,000 meters (13,000-16,400 ft).

We train this by perfecting the functional breathing skills taught for everyday performance and improving oxygen uptake. Then we combine techniques involving breath holds and movement.

The OA™ breath holds that I teach increase the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood and lowers blood oxygen levels, this combination increases the athletes tolerance to CO2 (the primary trigger to breathe), thus helping them to perform for longer.


The bottom line and in lay-mans terms; The OA™ "Simulation of High-altitude Training" enables you to:

* do more activity, with less breaths

* exercise for longer duration, at a higher intensity

* recover quicker, so you can go again

Your Personalised Program

Each person will have a different starting point, like fitness - we all have differing levels. So, I will work with you "where you are currently at".

Over a short period of time, you will notice your PB results go up. For some this is instant, for others it is a gradual increase. Whichever one you are, rest assured, as your breathing scores improves - your sporting goal results will also.

You are part of a team or sports club? My program is adaptable for individual 1:1 sessions, or teams like rugby, football, GAA
