When elites like Kellyn Taylor—who trains in Flagstaff, Arizona—and Emma Coburn—who trains in Crested Butte, Colorado—work out at elevations around 6,000 to 8,000 feet above sea level, then you know ...

Human athletes have long utilized training at high altitudes to improve their oxygen-carrying capacity, so it should come as no surprise that trainers of equine athletes have tried similar methods.

Altitude training refers to exposing the body to hypoxic environments (those which limit the amount of oxygen reaching the tissues) long enough to elicit physiological adaptations. These adaptations ...

There’s a reason elite runners flock to towns such as Park City, Utah (altitude 6,936 feet above sea level), Flagstaff, ...

Leading up to the Olympic trials earlier this year, local running star Max King slept in an altitude training tent almost every night. The tent fits over a mattress in a spare room of his house, next ...

If Tom Pidcock and part of the Pinarello-Q36.5 squad catch a glimpse of the Canary Islands and the famous mountain of Teide ...

Training or living at altitude is a tactic many cyclists use to improve their physiology and prepare for races at altitude. In recent years, more research has been carried out on the subject and ...

If you're a competitive athlete, or even just an active person who wants to get in better aerobic shape, go up to the mountains ... If you’re a competitive athlete, or even just an active person who ...

There are two main ways of manipulating environmental conditions to get an extra physiological boost from your workout. One is altitude training, and the other is heat training. So can you combine ...

Objectives: Inter-individual variations in sea level performance after altitude training have been attributed, at least in part, to an inter-individual variability in hypoxia induced erythropoiesis.
