摘要

Purpose

To determine the effect of intermittent terrestrial hypobaric hypoxia (HH) exposure on stress and inflammatory biomarkers following a resistance training (RT) program.

Methods

Twenty trained males completed an 8-week RT program (3 sessions/week) under HH (2320 m asl) or normoxia (N, 690 m asl). Before and after the RT, circulating stress biomarkers (calcium, inorganic phosphate, creatine kinase [CK], total antioxidant capacity [TAC]), inflammation (tumour necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α]), interleukin 10 (IL-10), vascular endothelial growth factor and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) were analyzed by immunology multiplex assay and ELISA. Moreover, maximal strength to back squat (1RM-SQ) and squat jump (SJ) performance were measured.

Results

The results revealed that, compared with N, the HH group exhibited a large increase in 1RM-SQ and SJ (all ES > 0.99; p < 0.041) outcomes. IL-10 and TNF-α levels increased in HH more and faster than N (all ES > 1.35; p < 0.003), returning to baseline following the RT. Circulating HSP70 revealed a similar trend, although remaining elevated in HH after the program (all ES > 1.106; p < 0.029). HSP70 in HH explained ~ 44% of TNF-α variance (p < 0.001). In addition, the RT program in HH induced greater decreases in TAC and CK than N (all ES < − 0.95; p < 0.05).

Conclusions

Findings highlight the potential role of moderate altitude in long-term RT for inducing greater stress while maintaining the inflammatory balance, crucial for muscle adaptations in young males. Consequently, HH condition revealed an additional benefit in the contractile and explosive muscle strength development.
