One way of adapting to a new environment is “acclimation”. Acclimation is defined as the continuous or repeated exposure to heat, cold, altitude, or some new environment so as to provoke physiologic or biochemical changes that allow you to better tolerate the new environment. Thus, acclimation is the gradual change the body goes through as it adapts to a new environment. This chapter will focus on training under environmental conditions which require acclimation, and also under confined spaces.
