Aktivní komparátor: Natural Recovery Group
Control group participants will undergo the same altitude training protocol (altitude 1600 meters) for 4 weeks.
Participants underwent a 20-minute quiet seated rest at 16:00 on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, with ad libitum water consumption permitted and electronic devices prohibited.
|
Control group participants will undergo the same altitude training protocol (altitude 1600 meters) for 4 weeks.
After each training session, participants will receive standard recovery procedures, including 20 minutes of passive rest in a thermoneutral environment (room temperature 24°C), supplemented with mild hydration and self-selected stretching.
No hydrothermal intervention will be provided.

Aktivní komparátor: Hot water immersion group
The hot water immersion group will undergo a 4-week altitude training at 1600 meters above sea level.
Subjects will receive a 20-minute hot water immersion (daily tap water, 38°C±0.5°C) in a standardized indoor hot spring facility.
The immersion protocol includes partial-body immersion up to the xiphoid process (lower chest) for 20 minutes, followed by a 10-minute rest before leaving the facility.
Three times per week.
