Brief Summary
The aim of this protocol is to assess physiological responses during various physical exercise protocols (whole-body exercise such as cycling or treadmill running, or localised exercise such as knee extension) and during inhalation of a gas mixtures with various oxygen contents (similar to exposure at high altitude).
