Live high‐train low (LHTL) using hypobaric hypoxia was previously found to improve sea‐level endurance performance in well‐trained individuals; however, confirmatory controlled data in athletes are lacking. Here, we test the hypothesis that natural‐altitude LHTL improves aerobic performance in cross‐country skiers, in conjunction with expansion of total hemoglobin mass (Hb , carbon monoxide rebreathing technique) promoted by accelerated erythropoiesis.
To determine if pre-cooling (PC) following heat-acclimatization (HA) can further improve self-paced endurance performance in the heat, 13 male triathletes performed two 20-km cycling time-trials (TT) at 35 °C, 50% relative humidity, before and after an 8-day training camp, each time with (PC) or without (control) ice vest PC. Pacing strategies, physiological and perceptual responses were assessed during each TT.
