Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia exposure increases ventilatory treshold but not running performance in triathletes

Short-term intermittent hypoxia exposure (IHE) combined with sea level training has shown to improve cycling performance in world-class track cyclists (1), and middle-distance swimming performance (2-3) or VO2max and ventilatory threshold in competitive swimmers (2-3). This study investigated the effect of IHE on aerobic capacity and running performance in triathletes.
