Hypoxic training ranks among these concepts as possibly the most effective and universally beneficial method of promoting weight-loss. Scientists and mountain climbers alike have known for years that acute and prolonged exposure to high-altitude leads to weight-loss. Sherpas and other permanent residents of high-altitude are inherently thinner and contain less overall body mass than sea-level residents. The fact is that through a proper hypoxic exercise regimen, IHT program, or a combination oft he two, individuals can lose weight quickly and efficiently while maintaining safety and overall health.
The scientific mechanisms behind weight-loss through hypoxic training are two-fold. The basis behind these effects is the creation of a hypoxic state within the body, measured by arterial oxygen saturation (Sa02). As described in the general section, hypoxic exercise or IHT can bring the Sa02 down to 80-85%, rather than only about 95% with conventional normoxic exercise. As a result of this lack of oxygen, which is more severe in hypoxic exercise, the skeletal muscle is forced to turn to anaerobic metabolism for energy production.
(Основа, скрытая за этими эффектами – создание состояния гипоксии в организме, измереряемого артериальной насыщенностью (напряжением ?) кислорода (Sa02). … гипоксическая тренировка или интервальная тренировка могут снизить Sa02 до 80-85 %, а не только ~95 %, как это бывает с обычной нормоксической тренировкой. В результате этой нехватки кислорода, которая более серьезна в гипоксической тренировке, скелетная мускулатура обращается к анаэробному метаболизму для производства энергии.)
Thus, the body will burn calories in the form of fat stores in order to produce energy during exercise. Also, this method results in increased damage of myofibrils, experienced as soreness after a workout. The body will then burn even more calories after the workout in an attempt to rebuild and fortify these muscles, thus protecting them for future workouts.
This is how weight-lifters build muscle and the specific reason for why they can consume so much food. Moreover, a hypoxic workout can promote the burning of 3 times as many calories as a normoxic workout, as calories continue to be burned for up to 15 hours after the workout. The graph below provides and nice visual explanation.
The second mechanism for weight-loss ties in with the science in the wellness section. Such extreme reduction of Sa02 (80-85%) promotes a rejuvenation of the cell’s mitochondria. The destruction of old dysfunctional mitochondria is coupled with stimulated production of new healthy ones. These healthy mitochondria contain genes for fat metabolism that the old mitochondria have lost via oxidative damage of mitochondrial DNA. In turn, the proliferation of new mitochondria provides a vehicle for increased fat metabolism in energy production and thus, increased weight-loss.
(Второй механизм... Разрушение старых дисфункциональных митохондрий связано со стимулируемым производством новых здоровых. Эти здоровые митохондрии содержат гены липидного обмена, которые старые митохондрии утеряли через окислительное повреждение митохондриальной ДНК. В свою очередь, быстрое размножение новых митохондрий обеспечивает транспорт для увеличенного липидного обмена в производстве энергии и таким образом, увеличенной потере веса.)

Так что, худым надо отправляться в качалку. И не забытвать про сбалансированное питание.
