From what I understand, breath control training largely provides little (if any?) physiological training effect other than from the work itself (which is hindered anyway, making it a waste of time for training any of the energy systems).
I assume there is room to mentally adapt and learn how to manage hypoxic suffering. But other than developing a strong aerobic base and increasing level of conditioning, can one actually have room to improve their hypoxic capacity specifically through hypoxic training?
Thank you!
Never do this.Thanks, I will never do this and have not in a long time.
At the time what I believed I was doing was loading my cells with increased levels of O2 which does not really happen. From what I now know, correct me if I'm wrong, is the blood O2 levels don't increase that much by overventillating, but what does change is the CNS becomes short circuited at bogus lean CO2 levels.
I think of it like how an O2 sensor on a car with an exhaust leak upstream effects EFI (electronic fuel inj), the sensor reads inducted O2 (from atmospheric air) upstream at the leak, and the ecu thinks it needs more fuel (carbon).
