Overview
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the physiological-biochemical effects of physical training under artificially altered climatic conditions (using a hypoxic thermoclimatic chamber) in particular to determine the effect of such training on exercise capacity and physiological response, including the effect of training in high-performance athletes. The study will evaluate the effects of physical training and the simultaneous application of hypoxia and heat/cold on aerobic and anaerobic capacity and the physiological response of the human body. The aim of the study is to find the most favourable environmental conditions for physical training in order to maximise physical performance.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
absence of medical contraindications to high-intensity physical exertion. The medical
examination is required (included an exercise ECG, blood tests to exclude anemia or low
hemoglobin and iron concentration)
Exclusion Criteria:
any training (including hypoxia training or exposure) performed in the 6 months prior to
the beginning of the intervention
