Episode description

The Uphill Athlete podcast is back to answer your questions on all things altitude. Director of Coaching, Chantelle Robitaille and host Alyssa answer a range of questions from altitude and Vertical Kilometer races, coming from sea level to race at altitude, and the benefits and challenges of using a hypoxic tent vs mask. They also touch on the effects of altitude on men vs women as well as considerations aging athletes should take when planning for altitude adventures. The two wrap up the conversation with a discussion on the need for individualized planning when it comes to balancing normal training and acclimatization protocols and the direction Uphill Athlete is headed in supporting athletes for their altitude training needs.
