What is Which of the following adaptations will be apt to increase the work capacity at high altitude: and explain in detail?
The limiting factor at high altitude is the 'rate of oxygen uptake. By increasing the workload (resistance), will increase the required rate of oxygen uptake which is not available at a high altitude. Hence a Decrease in workload, and an increase in the duration of exercise is best suited for increased work capacity.
