Of altitude tents and such...

...So I might/will be involved in an 'effects of altitude tent' study this month and next. What I'm getting out of it is a free chance to try an altitude tent; not that I could ever afford/justify one in real life, but it'll be nice to try. At least that's my attitude now.

But I only get the tent for one week. My impression of live high/train low was that it took months to acclimate and see the benefit, and the benefit was only a couple of percent. That would be tough to prove one way or another without a huge sample size. But I digress.

My question: From a performance perspective, do you think this study is a waste of time?

Again, either way I get to try one out for free, so I'm planning on doing it just for that.
