Sumario:Among the various simulated altitude training approaches, intermittent hypoxia exposure (IHE) should be highlighted, which is implemented through the passive stay in rooms with hypoxic ambience or by breathing air with a lower concentration of O2, as well as the method called intermittent hypoxic training (IHT), which consists of carrying out training sessions under conditions of hypoxia (Millet et al., 2010). The effects of intermittent hypoxic exposure and intermittent hypoxic training programs are associated with increased erythropoiesis resulting in an improvement in physiological parameters related to aerobic performance and anaerobic threshold and maximum oxygen consumption as well as increased anaerobic performance. As noted in the literature, IHT programs appear to be much more beneficial than IHE for stimulating erythropoiesis and enhancing athletic performance, although both methods result in an improvement in blood levels that is key to the new production of red blood cells and that affects athletic performance. Primarily, this is because exercise in hypoxia plays an important role in haematological and physiological adaptations of the body, although in this research there are still basic questions to be answered (Hoppeler & Vogt, 2001)
