- Physiological Aids
- Blood Doping
- a volume of blood is removed and frozen 4 weeks prior to the competition and re-infused 2hrs before the comp.
- Benefits
- increases RBC contents
- Difficult to detect
- 5-13% increase in VO2
- increases aerobic capacity and intensity/ duration of performance
- delays fatigue
- Risks
- easier to detect if someone else's blood is used
- increased risk of infection (hepititis/HIV)
- increased viscosity of blood
- decreases Q
- increased risk of blood clots
- potential heart failure
- Intermittent Hypoxic Training IHT
- Risks
- any benefits are quickly lost when IHT stops
- easily lose motivation
- hard to reach normal work rates
- decrease immune function
- dehydration
- increased risk of infection
- Risks
- Cooling Aids
- Benefits
- treats injury
- speeds up recovery
- reduce muscle damage
- decreases DOMS
- Risks
- can be very painful
- can hide or complicate injuries
- ice burns
- chest area: causes shock, coronary arteries, can constrict
