Oxygen Training & the Making of SuperHumans

from Born SuperHuman · host Born SuperHuman

What happens when you take oxygen away—and let the body adapt? In this episode of Born SuperHuman, host Dan Metcalfe sits down with Brian Oestrike, CEO of Hypoxico and Mount Everest climber, to explore how altitude training reshapes the blood, brain, and body. Brian breaks down hypoxic training in simple terms, shares lessons from Everest and rapid-ascent expeditions, and explains how simulated altitude has become a powerful tool for endurance, recovery, and overall health. This is a fascinating conversation about stress, adaptation, and how smarter preparation—not shortcuts—creates safer, stronger humans.
