Training at altitude with supplemental and reduced oxygen

Tue 14 May, 12:00 am BST

US road champion experiments with techniques from freediving

Delivering oxygen to the leg muscles is the name of the game in cycling. To improve his power and speed, US national road champion Timmy Duggan and his coach Jon Tarkington are experimenting not only with supplemental oxygen intervals, but reduced oxygen intervals as well. In Boulder, Colorado (elevation 5,430ft/1,655m), BikeRadar followed Duggan for a day's training, which also included some motorpacing up and down hills.
