Adaptation to altitude can enhance performance if the hypoxic dose and the frequency of the exposures are appropriate. While many hypoxic training modalities exist, the protocols utilizing short intermittent hypoxic exposures are gaining popularity. However, the effects of such novel hypoxic protocols on athletic performance are unclear. The aim of …
