Training at low to moderate altitudes (~ 1600–2400 m) is a common approach used by
endurance athletes to provide a distinctive environmental stressor to augment training …

Since the 1960s there has been an escalation in the purposeful utilization of altitude to
enhance endurance athletic performance. This has been mirrored by a parallel …

Environmental stressors, such as heat or altitude, elicit dissimilar physiological adaptations
to endurance training programs. Whether these differences (ie, increased hemoglobin mass …

Background: Recent studies have indicated that people who live at altitude have a lower
incidence of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and lesser severity in infection cases …

Air traveler numbers are predicted to reach 4.0 billion in 2024. Between 1/15,000–50,000
passengers will experience acute medical problems inflight with cardiac arrests requiring …

Live high train high (LHTH) is the original method of altitude training used by elite athletes to
enhance sea-level performance. Whilst many anecdotal reports featuring world-class …

Background Moderate altitudes carry physiological and metabolic changes that can dampen
exercise performance. Fortunately, these changes can be modulated by an optimal …

Objectives We determined whether perceptually-regulated, high-intensity intermittent runs in
hypoxia and normoxia induce similar running mechanics adjustments within and between …

This study aimed to investigate the effects of a 4-week live high train low (LHTL; FiO2~
13.5%), intervention, followed by a tapering phase, on muscle glycogen concentration …

Purpose To investigate the carbohydrate metabolism, acid–base balance, and potassium
kinetics in response to exercise in moderate hypoxia among endurance athletes. Methods …
