Intermittent hypoxic training: fact and fancy.
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 the ultimate goal to improve sea-level athletic performance. In general, IHT can be divided into two different strategies: (1) providing hypoxia at rest with the primary goal being to stimulate altitude accl...
متن کاملAdvancing hypoxic training in team sports: from intermittent hypoxic training to repeated sprint training in hypoxia
Over the past two decades, intermittent hypoxic training (IHT), that is, a method where athletes live at or near sea level but train under hypoxic conditions, has gained unprecedented popularity. By adding the stress of hypoxia during 'aerobic' or 'anaerobic' interval training, it is believed that IHT would potentiate greater performance improvements compared to similar training at sea level. A...
متن کاملEditorial: Considerations of risks versus benefits.
An evaluation of risks versus benefits from new products should be encouraged, even when dealing with agents which may cause cancer or malformations in laboratory animals, because there is evidence that safety thresholds exist even for such exposures. However, it is not easy to describe risk and benefit in comparable terms when they may involve generations to come and events in the future.
متن کاملIntermittent hypoxic–hyperoxic training on cognitive performance in geriatric patients
INTRODUCTION Intermittent hypoxic-hyperoxic training (IHHT) may complement a multimodal training intervention (MTI) for improving cognitive function and exercise tolerance in geriatric patients. METHODS Thirty-four patients (64-92 years) participated in this randomized controlled trial. Before and after the 5- to 7-week intervention period (MTI + IHHT vs. MTI + ambient air), cognitive functio...
متن کاملIntermittent hypoxic resistance training: does it provide added benefit?
INTRODUCTION Methods to enhance the adaptive responses to resistance training are of great interest to clinical and athletic populations alike. Altering the muscular environment by restricting oxygen availability during resistance exercise has been shown to induce favorable physiological adaptations. An acute hypoxic stimulus during exercise essentially increases reliance on anaerobic pathways,...
