“…Further, cognitive processes associated with the best visuo-spatial abilities (i.e., neural efficiency) could be unveiled by fNIRS in the brain of highly skilled aerobatic pilots and Formula One race-car professional drivers. Finally, assessing cortical activation and tracking cerebral oxygenation changes during ascent and stay at high altitude environments may inform both on the neural correlates of cognitive control (Davranche et al, 2016 ; Champigneulle et al, 2022 ) and in the pathogenesis of acute mountain sickness (Manferdelli et al, 2021 ), respectively.…”

“…Many climbers live permanently in flat terrain and training requires a special approach with the use of modern techniques and equipment [11,12,13]. After analysing scientific researches, we found that many researches focus on the analysis and implementation of techniques for the training of elite athletes who have a high level of training [14]. Also, techniques using expensive equipment that are available in medical centers, such as barometric chambers, have been proposed [15,16].…”

Purpose: We develop and experimentally substantiate the use of a method of training amateur mountaineers in conditions of flat terrain to high altitude and ascent to the top. Material and methods: The study involved 12 men (age 20-25 years old) who have 1 year experience in mountaineering. The participants were divided into two groups, control and experimental, 6 people each. The study was conducted from March to August 2021. The intervention program lasted 9 weeks. All participants gave their consent to participate in the experiment. Methods: Physical fitness was measured by the 20 squat test. The resting heart rate was measured while standing. Psychophysiological condition was determined with the "International Reaction Test", the test shows the reaction time to a stimulus. Altitude was chosen as an influence factor on reaction time and HR in different test modes: initial testing (plain), testing at an altitude of 1900 m and at an altitude of 3200 m. Results: The altitude factor had no significant effect on preload reaction time in both control and experimental groups (p>0.05). However, a significant influence of altitude on post-load reaction time was found in both control and experimental groups (p<0,05). HR was significantly influenced by altitude in both control and experimental groups. However, the effect is stronger in the control group than in the experimental group. Conclusions. The method increasing tolerance in hypoxia has a positive effect on the organism recovery after the stress in conditions of natural hypoxia, observed during climbing in the mountains.
