Repeated-sprint training with low lung volume voluntary hypoventilation performed continuously throughout each set in healthy females

This study showed that, although participants reported increased breathing difficulty during RSH-VHL performed continuously, this condition did not result in significant systemic or local hypoxia. Moreover, it led to a lower training load compared to RSN. When VHL is performed continuously throughout each set, rather than only during sprints, it may be too strenuous, inducing a significant reduction in training load.

Abstract

This study showed that, although participants reported increased breathing difficulty during RSH-VHL performed continuously, this condition did not result in significant systemic or local hypoxia. Moreover, it led to a lower training load compared to RSN. When VHL is performed continuously throughout each set, rather than only during sprints, it may be too strenuous, inducing a significant reduction in training load.
