'High Performance, for everyone.' The human being is a wondrous piece of engineering.
Within every person is the propensity to adapt to his or her surroundings in order to maximise the chance of survival. We have been hacking this process for centuries in the name of sport and fitness. There are a multitude of activities we undertake to build strength, flexibility, cardio fitness and cognitive skills in preparation for work, sport and recreation. An 800m track runner, for example,

A message from the founder….
I’d like to thank everyone who has supported me and this crazy project over the last 6 years. It has been a lot of fun, and a lot (a whole lot) of work trying to bring a new concept to market. I loved the science behind the operation and the new applications for health and performance we discovered along the way. But ultimately it was about the people. Not only did I make dozens of friends, I got to watch people achieve what wouldn’t have been possible without the tool of hypoxic training. Often in lieu of wages that’s what drove me forward. I’ve seen people; get a year’s worth of fitness gains in a matter of weeks, win titles, be the only trekker to summit in their party, come back from injury more competitive than when they went in, and improve impaired lung function from things like MS, Asthma and m**h exposure. A great thing to be a part of. I have also enjoyed using the facility for my own training.
I trust that Dan and Tyler will pick up their respective batons and take it further than I have. All the best.
Charles.

It is the end of an era and the start of a new one for Vertex.
As of today Vertex will become two divisions. The altitude booth has shifted to Peak Sports Performance Centre at 15 Anchorage rd Hornby, and the Strength and Conditioning operation will stay with Dan at the current site, with some exciting new developments in the mix.
All Altitude memberships will be honoured at Peak with free altitude training until 2023 for current members (email [email protected].)
For Strength and Conditioning please contact Dan on +64 22 189 4823.

Client Testamonial -
I recently completed a 6 day self supported 250km staged Ultramarathon in Chiles’ Atacama Desert. The race crosses a variety of terrain in demanding conditions - sand, dunes, saltflats, slot canyons, riverbeds, 4wd tracks etc. The race started at 3400m, and didn’t go below 2500m. I used the Vertex Athletic chamber treadmills to help with both heat and altitude acclimatisation in the month coming up to the race.
The next “project” is Everest Base Camp trek in early Dec, and a climb of the 6150m Lobuche East, so expect to see me back in the chamber next month!
Awesome job Denis 🎉
