By being at ‘Altitude’ The purpose of this study is to contribute to the understanding of the ‘sleep high, train low’ which is in opposition to the usual ‘train high, sleep low’. This study is based on an adolescent male athlete (17 years old) over a seven-month process in conjunction with medical professionals and coach. By sleeping at an altitude where the body is at rest, where it’s able to manage and deal with the reduction of oxygen around the body without the stress of also training, the human body should have a higher chance of adapting to the altitude. The test showed that increase in altitude whilst sleeping requires the body to generate more Haemoglobin and red blood cells, which allows an athlete’s body to improve aerobic respiration causing a 1-kilometre time to decrease. As the respiratory rate and circulatory system will be more efficient causing the Muscular respiration (transfer of oxygen and Carbon dioxide in the muscle) to be more efficient allowing larger amounts of ATP/CP, Lactate to be used whilst training/competing.", keywords = "Sleep, altitude, Hypoxia, athletic preformance, Hypobaric chamber", author = "Keenan White", year = "2023", language = "English", url = "https://dapp.orvium.io/deposits/64e69c8ae25fd46e23421170/view", }
