What is the Metabolic Trainer™?

The Metabolic Trainer™ guides your body through controlled oxygen shifts that help awaken your natural energy systems in a powerful yet calming way. As you sit back and breathe, the system cycles between reduced-oxygen air and normal oxygen that matches sea-level concentration. These gentle changes invite your body into a deeper, more efficient rhythm of oxygen use.

This is a quiet session with a surprisingly big impact. Many guests describe feeling clearer, lighter, and more energized after their first experience. The Metabolic Trainer™ gives your body a rare opportunity. It creates space to strengthen internal resilience without effort, tension, or strain.

It is one of the most refreshing ways to support both mental clarity and physical vitality, especially when life feels demanding or draining.

The Science Behind It

The Metabolic Trainer™ uses Intermittent Hypoxia Normoxia Training, also known as IHNT. This involves cycling between reduced-oxygen air and normal oxygen. IHNT has been studied for supporting mitochondrial efficiency, cellular adaptation, and how the body uses oxygen. The guided shifts allow your system to respond without physical strain.

Oxygen Adaptation

Supports your body’s natural response to changing oxygen levels.

Relaxed Session

You remain seated and breathe normally while the system cycles.

Supports Cellular Energy

IHNT is linked to mitochondrial performance and vitality.

    Woke Up Ready to Go

    I had a tour yesterday for an hour with the oh-so-warm Team. After a cell health analysis I got to try the AI Bike and “The Big Squeeze” for my lymph function. I woke up this morning ready to go and had the highest overnight heart rate variability I’ve ever seen.
