PHYSIOLOGIC RESPONSES OF DIFFERENT AEROBIC LEVEL ATHLETES TO ALTITUDE TRAINING AND OPTIMUM ALTITUDE AND EXPOSING TIME

24487

This study has indicated that the effect of altitude training on endurance performance of elite and nonelite athletes and the optimum altitude and exposing time. In many research it has been proved that the threshold should be 2500 m and 3-4 weeks or above in order that altitude training show effect on athletes. However, changes regarding effect of the training above this threshold showed differences on elite athletes who compete in different sports, in some research endurance parameters improve, while in some research it did not. In this sense, at the basic of this differences it is important that the natural endurance threshold of the athletes and where the athletes reached of this threshold before altitude training.
