BEFORE

High heart rate made it hard to pick up pace. Frequent illness interrupted training for weeks at a time. Could spend 12 hours on the mountain — but barely.

AFTER

The program delivered practical, actionable advice. Strengthened my immune system, dialed in my training, added the right supplements, and reached 6,000m. Highly recommend.

BEFORE

Good endurance overall, but altitude sickness hit hard. No summits yet — only ski touring and downhill skiing. Took Diamox as a precaution.

AFTER

Two successful summits — Elbrus, then Kilimanjaro. Felt prepared and in control. Already planning the next expedition.

BEFORE

Decent fitness, but gaps in recovery support, occasional poor altitude tolerance, inconsistent results, and no real system.

AFTER

Performance metrics improved. I've adapted the training program to fit my schedule and maintain consistent form year-round. No more crashes or overtraining.

BEFORE

Climbs were the hardest part. Started my first training cycle at 70% capacity due to weak running base — despite solid strength.

AFTER

By the end of the first cycle, sleep and overall wellbeing had both improved significantly. Kilimanjaro is now on the calendar for February.

BEFORE

Good endurance, but calf pain and long flat stretches were tough. Reached 5,100m on Elbrus and felt reasonably well.

AFTER

My understanding of preparation has expanded dramatically. I now have a clear training structure and, for the first time, a real recovery strategy.

BEFORE

I realized I had no proper system — no bloodwork, no tracking, no structure. I was training on hope.

AFTER

Preparing for big peaks no longer feels intimidating. I have a clear framework for both physical preparation and health monitoring.

BEFORE

My fitness wasn't the issue — I've trained consistently for 6 years. The problem was my body couldn't recover through food or sleep at altitude. I was sick every night.

AFTER

Now I understand exactly how to prepare my body for hypoxia.
