TTM isn't built on intuition or templates. Every training decision - load, intensity, timing, adaptation - comes from a model with four decades of peer-reviewed research behind it.
Each pillar is grounded in validated exercise science. Navigate with arrows, dots, keyboard, or swipe.
TTM's model measures cardiovascular altitude readiness with precision. The research is sound. The math is validated. But we're explicit about scope:
A high SRS means your cardiovascular system is ready. It doesn't mean you'll summit. That also requires technical skill, proper acclimatisation strategy, good fortune with weather, and the experience to know when to turn around. Every climber should use this as one part of their preparation - not the whole story.
