More energy, starting at cell level
Everyone wants more energy. Your cells make it with oxygen, in the mitochondria. That is why oxygen training is where so many people start.
Mitochondria are the power plants of your cells: they turn oxygen and nutrients into the energy your body and brain run on. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBOT) raises the amount of oxygen dissolved in your blood during a session. IHHT does the opposite and alternates oxygen-poor and oxygen-rich air, a training stimulus for the same energy system. Hydrogen inhalation is used by athletes around effort and fatigue.
Research in healthy athletes measured changes in mitochondrial respiration and a higher VO2max after a series of HBOT sessions. Longevity entrepreneur Bryan Johnson filmed his own 90-day HBOT experiment, which brought the topic to a large audience. Curious how it feels? Try a session in our showroom in Goes.
What researchers measured
The studies and data come from the researchers and journals cited, not from OxyBoost. We show them for information only.
- HBOTRandomised trial2022
Effects of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy on Mitochondrial Respiration and Physical Performance in Middle-Aged Athletes: A Blinded, Randomized Controlled Trial
Hadanny A, et al. · Sports Medicine – Open (2022)
37 healthy master athletes aged 40–50
Forty sessions at 2.0 ATA were compared with a sham protocol. The HBOT group showed higher VO2max and oxygen uptake at the anaerobic threshold, together with changes in mitochondrial respiration and mitochondrial mass.

Effects of Intermittent Hypoxia–Hyperoxia on Performance- and Health-Related Outcomes in Humans: A Systematic Review
Behrendt T, et al. · Sports Medicine – Open (2022)
8 controlled studies in humans
A systematic review of chronic intermittent hypoxia–hyperoxia applied at rest. The included studies reported improvements in exercise tolerance, peak oxygen uptake and cognitive performance; the authors call for larger randomised trials.
- HydrogenCrossover study2024
Inhalation of Hydrogen-rich Gas before Acute Exercise Alleviates Exercise Fatigue: A Randomized Crossover Study
Dong G, et al. · International Journal of Sports Medicine (2024)
24 healthy men
Participants inhaled hydrogen-rich gas or air for 60 minutes before an exhausting cycling test. After hydrogen they reported lower fatigue and perceived exertion, and kept their cadence better at the end of the test; jump height did not differ.
