Unchanged anaerobic and aerobic performance after short-term intermittent hypoxia
Article Abstract:
The effects of repeated short-term exposures to severe degree of hypoxia, alternated with similar intervals of normoxia on both anaerobic and aerobic performance is investigated through a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Results demonstrated that 1 hour of intermittent hypoxic exposure for 15 consecutive days has no effect on aerobic or anaerobic performance.
