“READY FOR THE MOUNTAINS” TEST PACKAGE
HYPOXIC TEST AT REST
Understand how your body responds to reduced oxygen before you reach altitude
During the test, you breathe a controlled hypoxic gas mixture corresponding to different simulated altitudes, while your physiological response is monitored at rest.
WHO IT'S FOR
You’re planning a high-altitude trek or climb.
You want to better understand your physiological response to hypoxia.
You’re beginning altitude-specific preparation and want baseline data.
You want to compare your response before and after a period of preparation.
WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
Changes in peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO₂).
Heart-rate response to hypoxic exposure.
The rate of SpO₂ decline and recovery.
Your individual physiological response to reduced oxygen availability.
WHAT YOU GET
Objective baseline data on your response to hypoxia.
Additional information that can help guide your altitude-preparation strategy.
A reference point for tracking changes during preparation.
Recommendations on whether additional testing or individualized preparation may be appropriate.
HYPOXIC EXERCISE TEST
Assess how your body responds to hypoxia during physical activity
During controlled exercise, you breathe a hypoxic gas mixture corresponding to a simulated altitude while physiological responses to both exercise and reduced oxygen availability are monitored.
WHO IT'S FOR
You’re preparing for a high-altitude trek, climb, or expedition.
You want to assess your response to exercise under hypoxic conditions.
You’re following an altitude-preparation program and want objective data to track your progress.
You have a demanding high-altitude objective and want additional information to individualize your preparation.
WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
Changes in peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO₂) during exercise.
Heart-rate response to exercise under hypoxic conditions.
Desaturation and recovery dynamics.
Your physiological response to the combined stress of exercise and hypoxia.
WHAT YOU GET
Additional information about how you respond to exercise under hypoxic conditions.
Data that can help individualize your training and pre-acclimatization strategy.
A baseline that can be compared with future testing.
Better insight into your physiological response to altitude-specific stress.
The price may vary depending on the country and whether additional equipment is required. Service availability also depends on the country.
VO₂max TEST
Measure your aerobic capacity and define individualized training intensities
Cardiopulmonary exercise testing evaluates how your cardiovascular and respiratory systems respond to progressively increasing exercise and provides objective data for endurance training.
WHO IT'S FOR
You’re preparing for a climb, trek, or expedition.
You train for endurance and want an objective measure of your aerobic fitness.
You want to individualize your training intensity.
You want to track changes in aerobic performance during your preparation.
WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
VO₂max or VO₂peak — maximal or peak oxygen uptake, depending on test criteria.
Ventilatory thresholds derived from respiratory gas analysis.
Heart-rate and workload responses across increasing exercise intensity.
Individual training zones based on your physiological response.
WHAT YOU GET
Objective data on your current aerobic fitness.
Individualized training zones.
Information that can help guide endurance-training intensity and progression.
A baseline for tracking changes throughout your preparation.
The price may vary depending on the country and whether additional equipment is required. Service availability also depends on the country.
HYPOXIC TEST AT REST
How does your body respond to reduced oxygen without exercise?
HYPOXIC EXERCISE TEST
How does your body respond when hypoxia and physical exertion are combined?
VO₂max TEST
What is your current aerobic capacity, and how should you individualize your training intensity?
Where can I take the tests?
You can take the tests with specialists from our OWNTOP team at 10 Krylatskaya St., Bldg. 3, Moscow.
Can the test be done remotely?
Remote testing is possible if you rent or purchase hypoxic equipment.
What will I get after completing the tests?
You'll receive an analysis of your test results plus a 15-minute results review

OWNTOP provides educational and sports-performance services. The Online Course does not provide individualized medical diagnosis, treatment, prescription or medical clearance. Individual responses to training, altitude and hypoxic exposure vary, and no course or coaching program can guarantee acclimatization, prevention of altitude-related illness, summit success or safe participation in a particular expedition.
