We confirmed that at 1200 m the  VO2max is decreased in sedentary and well-trained persons. Elite  athletes already at 900 m decrease their VO2max. We have found an   increase in myoglobin, oxidative enzyme activities and endurance  capacity and a decrease in some glycolytic enzyme activities associated  with simulated altitude  training. We conclude that when the amount of  training performed at altitude is similar to the amount at sea level,  the stimulus of hypoxia associated with the training stimulus induces  improvements in the muscle oxidative enzymes and myoglobin.<\/p>\n<p>PMID: 1483777 [PubMed &#8211; indexed for MEDLINE]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Int J Sports Med. 1992 Oct;13 Suppl 1:S206-9.
