OTHER

SHAM - Intermittent Room Air - room air mixture

Participants will breathe intermittent room air via air generators. The generators will fill reservoir bags attached to a non-rebreathing face mask. Oxygen concentration will be continuously monitored to ensure delivery of fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2)=0.21±0.02 (normoxia). Participants will receive treatment 5 times per week for 2 weeks.

OTHER

AIH - Intermittent Hypoxia - hypoxia air mixture

Participants will breathe intermittent low oxygen via air generators. The generators will fill reservoir bags attached to a non-rebreathing face mask. Oxygen concentration will be continuously monitored to ensure delivery of fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2)=0.10±0.02 (hypoxia). Participants will receive treatment 5 times per week for 2 weeks.
