Benefits

The benefits are well documented for the “sleep high, train low” modality. This mild form of gradual acclimatisation seems to work mainly on a blood level. IHT and Hypoxic Workouts mainly work at a cellular level. The benefits of this method include:

• An increase in red blood cell mass –more red blood cells to transport oxygen to the muscle cells.

• An increase in total blood volume, which moves oxygen more efficiently through the blood stream. Greater blood volume increases the stroke volume of the heart improving the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood.

• An increase in heamatocrit, the ratio of red blood cells to total blood serum resulting in a greater percentage of blood cells carrying oxygen.
