Time-dependent changes in aerobic capacity of acute sub-high altitude exposure in elite youth endurance athletes

Purpose This study investigated the non-linear, time-dependent alterations in cardiorespiratory fitness, running economy (RE), and metabolic kinetics during the first week of acute exposure to a sub-high altitude (1,300 m) in elite youth endurance athletes. Methods Fourteen male national-level middle- and long-distance...
