“…In order to minimize the detraining effects of living and training in hypoxia, Levine and Stray-Gundersen (1997) popularized the concept of living at moderate altitude (20-22 h/day) and training daily at low altitude or near sea level. Using simulated altitude (for $ 12-16 h/day) as an alternative to natural altitude was concurrently popularized in Finland (Rusko et al, 1995). In Australia, for logistical reasons, the exposure was limited to sleeping in moderate hypoxia ( $ 2650 m simulated altitude) for $ 9 h/night, which although insufficient to boost the production of red blood cells (Ashenden et al, 1999) did elevate HVR in a dose-dependent manner that was significant after 15 nights (Townsend et al, 2002), which is indicative of ventilatory acclimatization.…”

“…This method was introduced by Finnish scientists for their athletes, who wanted to utilise the favourable hypoxia organism adaptation without inconvenient and expensive travelling (Rusko et al, 1995). Athletes are exposed to hypoxia in rooms; training is the only break from the hypoxia.…”
