NNOXX — The Future of High Performance

Imagine having a mini lab that you can wear, giving you insights into your body’s response to exercise that go beyond what traditional devices offer. That’s exactly what the NNOXX wearable provides. Unlike first-generation muscle oximeters, like the Moxy Monitor, BSX Insight, and Humon Hex, NNOXX collects a range of biomarkers in real time, providing a comprehensive view of your performance. It’s no wonder why NNOXX has already been adopted by top coaches in the NBA, NHL, NFL, MLB, and US Olympic teams, as well as by Crossfit Games Athletes, Elite Climbers, and Tour de France Cyclists.

One of the key metrics NNOXX tracks is muscle oxygenation (SmO2). Muscle oxygenation reflects the balance between oxygen supply and demand in your muscles. For example, if your SmO2 level decreases, it means your muscles are utilizing oxygen faster than it can be supplied, and vice versa. While SmO2 is useful for understanding and optimizing exercise intensity, it’s just part of the story.

What makes NNOXX stand out is its ability to measure SmO2, nitric oxide, acceleration, and skin temperature simultaneously. This approach not only tells you what’s happening in your muscles but also why it’s happening and how you can improve.
