1\) Oxygen Transport in Normobaric versus Hypobaric Hypoxia. 2) The purpose of this study is to examine acute responses in arterial and muscle tissue oxygenation during incremental exercise in normobaric versus hypobaric hypoxia. 3) The participants in this study will consist of 12 recreationally active males and females between the ages of 19 and 45.Recreationally active is defined as participating in moderate to vigorous physical activity for 30 minutes at least 3 days per week.4) Subjects will complete an incremental cycle test to volitional fatigue in three conditions in a randomized counter-balanced order, normobaric normoxia (20.9% O2, 730 mmHg), normobaric hypoxia (14.3% O2, 730 mmHg) and hypobaric hypoxia (20.9% O2, 530mmHg). Two of the three trials will be conducted in an environmental chamber to simulate normobaric normoxia at 350 m (elevation of Omaha, NE) and normobaric hypoxia at 3094 m (elevation of Leadville, CO). The hypobaric hypoxia trial will be conducted in Leadville, Colorado at 3094 m. Trials will be separated by at least two days. Rating of perceived exertion, heart rate, blood oxygenation, respiration rate, muscle tissue oxygenation, and whole body gases will be analyzed during the trials. 5) There is no follow-up as a part of this study.
