Endurance Training in Normobaric Hypoxia Imposes Less Physical Stress for Geriatric Rehabilitation

Endurance Training in Normobaric Hypoxia Imposes Less Physical Stress for Geriatric Rehabilitation

Rationale: Evidence suggests that training in hypoxia can be very effective even while requiring less physical effort. We therefore aimed to measure the effect of endurance training under hypoxic conditions on pulmonary and cardiovascular parameters in an elderly population undergoing inpatient reha...
