Features Overview

 
 

EWOT (Exercise With Oxygen Therapy):

  • How it works: You exercise (bike, treadmill, etc.) while breathing high levels of oxygen through a mask.

  • Purpose: Increases oxygen delivery to your body during physical activity, aiming to improve stamina, energy, and recovery.

  • Experience: Active—you are moving and working out while breathing oxygen-enriched air.

  • Oxygen exposure: Consistently high oxygen throughout your workout.

CVAC (Cyclic Variations in Adaptive Conditioning):

  • How it works: You sit or recline passively in a pressurized pod that automatically varies air pressure, temperature, and oxygen levels in cycles.

  • Purpose: Simulates altitude changes to stimulate your body’s adaptive responses, potentially improving cellular efficiency and oxygen utilization.

  • Experience: Passive—no exercise required; the machine cycles pressure and oxygen conditions while you relax.

  • Oxygen exposure: Alternates between low and high oxygen, simulating natural altitude changes.

Key Differences:

  • Activity level: EWOT is active (requires exercise) This method prepared your for your upcoming event; CVAC is passive (no exercise).

  • Oxygen delivery: EWOT provides consistently high oxygen; CVAC cycles between high and low oxygen.

  • Equipment: EWOT uses exercise gear and an oxygen delivery system; CVAC uses a specialized pod with pressure controls.

  • Goal: Both aim to improve oxygen utilization, but by very different methods.
