High Altitude and Sport
High Altitude Training positively affects more than one physiological feature in the human body. Thanks to the developing sports sciences, sports medicine and medical data, the benefits of high altitude have come to light. Today, many athletes, performance specialists and sports physicians use High Altitude Training. High Altitude training has different training methods according to the purpose and target. In all methods it is always better to set the optimum altitude level according to oxygen saturation values (Spo2), which provides the most accurate and best personalised results.
What is Hypoxia? What are the effects of High Altitude?
When ascending to a certain altitude, the amount of oxygen that reaches the lungs decreases due to the effect of lower partial pressure, and this phenomenon is called hypoxia. The body responds by producing a glycoprotein hormone – erythropoietin (EPO) in order to increase the level of hemoglobin. After staying in such conditions for a certain period of time, the body acclimatizes to the altitude level (adapts to the environment) and increases the level of hemoglobin in the blood to a sufficient level, so that the blood can transport the necessary amount of oxygen to the tissues. After that, when the body returns to sea level or lower altitudes where the oxygen level is higher, much more oxygen is delivered to the tissues because the blood of a person retains a high content of hemoglobin for some time
