Training at altitude is imperative as preparation for competing there in aerobic events. The acute adaptations

High Altitude

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2023
AbstractWith ascent to high altitude, barometric pressure declines, leading to a reduction in the partial pressure of oxygen at every point along the oxygen transport chain from the ambient air to tissue mitochondria. This leads, in turn, to a series of changes over varying time frames across multiple organ systems that serve to maintain tissue oxygen ...
