Endurance Athlete Training

Simulated altitude training is a strategy for athletes who live at or near sea level and train in low-oxygen environments that simulate high altitudes. Reducing the oxygen in the environment increases the training stimulus, which causes the body to adapt and become more efficient at using oxygen. These physiological adaptations can lead to numerous performance benefits that can take you to the front of the pack in your next race.
