<p>The present invention provides methods for exercise training to improve exercise performance in an individual using low-resistance positive airway pressure and specialized gas mixtures during or immediately after exercise. The methods include wearing an interface, i.e. mask, connected by a tubing circuit to a positive airway pressure (PAP) assist ventilator device. The PAP device is connected to flexible tubing connected through a pressure regulator to a liquid gas source which supplies the gas mixture. The methods also include simulating high altitude exercise training by using the PAP device with a hypoxic level of oxygen in the gas mixture. The methods of the present invention reallocate oxygen between muscle groups, reduce fatigue, lessen episodes of dyspnea, improve conditioning levels and overall improve training to extreme levels of performance.</p> |
