Intermittent hypoxic training (IHT) refers to the discontinuous use of normobaric or hypobaric
hypoxia, in an attempt to reproduce some of the key features of altitude acclimatization, with …

For training at altitude to be effective, it must provide some advantage above and beyond
similar training at sea level. This advantage could be provided by: 1) acclimatization to …

Improved Sea-Level Performance after Hypoxic Exposure. Med. Sci. Sports Exerc., Vol. 39 …

Endurance athletic performance is highly related to a number of factors that can be altered
through altitude and hypoxic training including increases in erythrocyte volume, maximal …

Altitude training continues to be a key adjunctive aid for the training of competitive athletes
throughout the world. Over the past decade, evidence has accumulated from many groups of …

The benefits of living and training at altitude (HiHi) for an improved altitude performance of
athletes are clear, but controlled studies for an improved sea-level performance are …

The purpose of this review is to describe changes in blood volume and erythropoietic activity
occurring under different types of intermittent exposure to hypoxia. These hypoxic episodes …

New methods and devices for pursuing performance enhancement through altitude training
were developed in Scandinavia and the USA in the early 1990s. At present, several forms of …
