Live High Train Low model
The "Live High, Train Low" model is a training approach used by athletes to improve endurance. It involves living at high altitudes where oxygen levels are lower, which prompts the body to produce more red blood cells and increase oxygen-carrying capacity. However, training sessions are conducted at lower altitudes with normal oxygen levels to allow for higher intensity workouts. This combination helps athletes gain the benefits of increased red blood cells without the decreased training intensity that high altitudes can cause. Overall, it aims to enhance performance by optimizing adaptations to altitude while maintaining effective training.
