Summary

The main objective of the study is to evaluate the physiological-biochemical effects of physical training under artificially altered climatic conditions (using a hypoxic thermoclimatic chamber) in particular to determine the effect of such training on exercise capacity and physiological response, including the effect of training in high-performance athletes. The study will evaluate the effects of physical training and the simultaneous application of hypoxia and heat/cold on aerobic and anaerobic capacity and the physiological response of the human body. The aim of the study is to find the most favourable environmental conditions for physical training in order to maximise physical performance.

Conditions

• Hypoxia, Altitude
• Cold Exposure
• Heat Exposure

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	exercise and environmental conditions	Participants will perform interval training for 4 weeks in a variety of environmental conditions. There will be a measurement of aerobic and anaerobic capacity before and after the training. Before and after the first and last workout, blood will be drawn for biochemical analysis.
