Incorporating static apnea tables and sauna sessions can simulate the physiological effects of altitude training, enhancing endurance and preparation for altitude challenges.

Supplementing with echinacea can improve oxygen transport capacity, stimulate erythropoiesis production, and enhance endurance for altitude training.

Budget-friendly options for simulating altitude training include using altitude simulation masks or tents, incorporating high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and breath-control techniques, and supplementing with glycine to boost sodium absorption and counteract oxidative stress.

Training strategy: Altitude simulation through static apnea tables and sauna sessions.

One strategy to prepare for altitude training is to incorporate static apnea tables into your routine. Static apnea tables involve holding your breath for specific intervals, gradually increasing the duration and decreasing the rest time in between. Additionally, sauna sessions can simulate the physiological effects of altitude training, such as increasing plasma volume and stimulating EPO production. This can be achieved by exercising in a heated environment or spending time in a sauna after intense exercise.
