I was wondering if taking small cans of recreational oxygen to help with acclimatization would be helpful. I live at around 350 ft.above sea level. When I go to CO. I am usually around 6500-8000 ft. Walking(even joking up to 11k) and riding level is no problem. When I start to gain altitude on mtb my lungs are scorched. If you take a few breaths of 95% oxygen before ride and a few more later when you are anaerobic, would this help recovery.
do any of you have any experience with this?
