[Hypoxic training of high qualification sportsmen].

Normobaric intermittent hypoxic training (IHT) is an effective method for improving of of the functional respiration system (FRS) state, increase of aerobic productivity, general and special capacity for work in sportsmen of high qualification. The advantage of the use of intermittent hypoxic training during the preparation of high qualification sportsmen is so that hypoxic hypoxia and hypoxia of load influence on the sportsman organism in different time (IHT is doing during the rest, out of the planned sport training without the influence on it). This is a difference with the hypoxic training in mountain conditions where two types of hypoxia influence on the sportsman organism simultaneously and permanently--hypoxia of load and hypoxic hypoxia, and additive destructive action of the both types of hypoxia may be revealed. High efficacy of intermittent hypoxic training in improving of all parts of sportsmen FRS is a result alternating of hypoxic influences and normoxic intervals between them during which the level of plastic processes remains increased, oxygen tension in arterial blood and tissues increases to normoxic values. After IHT course, the state of respiration organs improves, the respiration volume, part of alveolar ventilation in the minute volume of respiration, saturation of arterial blood by oxygen, haemoglobin content in blood--increase as well as increase economy and efficacy of oxygen regimes of organism, general and special (especially important) physical capacity for work increase too.
