Altitude Testimonials
Paul Kerr - Trainer
"I think Altitude Training is very beneficial to the horses, and there's no doubt in my mind that it makes a difference. You can notice it in the horses' breathing; they can handle work a lot easier, and their recovery after a trial or race is definitely a lot quicker. I've got horses who are doing courses of Altitude Training, and when you work them with others that aren't you notice the difference for sure. It also picks horses up, as far as their attitude and well-being is concerned - and having a happy horse is half the battle when it comes to training. I've recommended Altitude Training to a few people already, and I wouldn't hesitate to do that again. I've put a few horses on it so far, and will be adding some more in the future."

"With an athletic background, I have always had an interest in natural performance enhancing agents. When I was introduced to SAT (Simulated Altitude Training) I was impressed by the science behind it as well as the incredible benefits that I noticed after I began using SAT myself. It was obvious that these benefits could potentially be extrapolated to the equine athlete. After conducting preliminary trials it became clear that not only do horses tolerate SAT exceptionally well, they also show excellent adaptation to SAT. This translates into greater performance and recovery in their chosen arena of competition. For peak performance and optimal health, I have no hesitation in recommending SAT."

Lew Driver - Driving Horses
"I've got my four main horses in my team on courses of Altitude Training, and they definitely seem to recover better after a workout, trial or race - I can't fault it. We tend to race our horses a lot, so the fact that they can stay up longer is very beneficial. The fact that the horses come home and eat up every last little drop of food - despite having had a hard run - is great, and it must mean that the general health and well-being of the horses is really high. I've been using the Altitude Training courses, and another thing I've noticed that's very good is the horses' bloodcell count - whenever I've had any of them tested, it's always high. I'd highly recommend it to anybody."

"I think it is definitely beneficial to the horses especially the horse I took to Dubai for the world champs, without doubt it helped with recovery and their overall performance."

Ken Ford, Horse Trainer.
"Upon completing the course I noticed his recovery had greatly improved along with his breathing as he could be quite 'thick winded' during hard work/racing. I do recommend Simulated Altitude Training as a great tool in improving overall fitness and breathing of horses – even though this will give others the edge!." |
