For best results, use Optygen/OptygenHP during all intense training. Optygen/OptygenHP will allow you to train at a higher level by improving the body’s ability to adapt to physical stress, increasing aerobic threshold and reducing lactic acid. These improvements will help you race at a higher level. For best results, Optygen/OptygenHP should be used consistently for many months. IF you start taking Optygen a week before a race, benefits will be minimal.

Just thought I’d give a few words of praise for Optygen…
I am on the La Sportiva Mountain Running Team and since starting to use Optygen in May, I have increased the volume and intensity of my training significantly. I have found that I have been able to recover much quicker from long runs and quality workouts.
I have to admit that I was a little surprised initially and had planned to build more recovery into my training, but then found that I didn’t need it as much while using Optygen.
In the past, I have struggled with illness from my body not being able fully recover from my training, but I firmly believe that while using Optygen, I have been able to stay much healthier, run more and recover quicker.
I thrilled that I have had my best summer of racing so far with a win at the Finger Lakes 50miler and a second place finish at Haliburton 100mile (I was 50mins faster than last year, and beat the previous course record). Thanks!
