IHHT for Health: History and Application (Interview with Dr. Arkadi Prokopov about Hypoxic Training)

In this video, Dr. Artour Rakhimov interviews Dr. Arkadi Prokopov about his knowledge, work, and experience with IHHT. The topics they discuss in this video include negative lifestyle factors in relation to the what the Buteyko method teaches and how the unawareness of these factors could negatively impact there recovery/healing progress of people using IHHT, how combining breathing retraining (the Buteyko method) and IHHT can create a strong synergistic effect for various conditions and how this training may also help people with tough cases. Dr. Arkadi Prokopov gives a brief description of his life and background, the importance of mitochondrial health and how this can be a major factor in your current state of health. Dr. Arkadi gives a detailed history of IHHT including the early developments after the second world war concerning fighter jet pilots and the task of adapting their bodies to hypoxic environments with hyperbaric chambers to improve problems related to flying at high altitudes, how doctors monitored these pilots health and noticed that their chronic health conditions improved, how years of substantial research and work of physicians, engineers, bio-medical specialists led to the creation of Intermittent Hypoxic Training (IHT), the advantages of IHT compared to Hyperbaric chambers, the basics of IHT and how it works and the current uses of IHT/IHHT including improving athletic performance, treatment and recovery of chronic health conditions, rehabilitation after for example surgery and to slow down the normal aging process. How mitochondria work within the body, the development of hyperoxic training combined with hypoxic training, his role within this, how this differs from normal IHT and how adding hyperoxic air improves the effectiveness of the training. What a typical session or protocol of IHHT including the length of time, cycles/intervals of hypoxic and hyperoxic air, individualization due to the sensitivity and tolerance to hypoxia in different people, how sick people often having low tolerances to hypoxia and the development of hypoxic adaptation. How nearly all conditions can be improved with IHHT as it improves mitochondria health as well as other important mechanisms within the body. He also delves into specific conditions and how IHHT can improve them and explains conditions in which the treatment is not usable. He also discusses how to optimize mechanisms in the immune system to better discover and defeat pathologies such as viruses, bacteria, and yeast, etc. with IHHT, an explanation of Lyme disease and how it develops, how IHHT improves brain function and CNS disorders such as psychiatric disorders, neurological conditions specifically addictions and the mechanism behind them, types of mitochondrial problems such as damage, mutations, dysfunction and how these differ, etc. and lastly the positive effects of using cold exposure/therapy and how it improves mitochondrial function and overall health.

Effects of Hypoxic Training on Body Oxygenation: Interview with Juergen Reinmuth

In this video, Dr. Artour Rakhimov interviews Juergen Reinmuth, an IHHT (Intermittent Hypoxic Hyperoxic Training) practitioner trained by Arkadi Prokopov.

They begin by talking about how Juergen found out about IHHT through a friend who saw good results with the therapy, and how he then met Arkadi Prokopov through this mutual friend at his practice in Germany.

They touch on topics and questions such as Juergens experience during his first session, the development of the IHHP from the therapy, to the machines used that have been used throughout the years, Juergens business and practice, a little bit into Arkadi's Prokopov's life from his traveling schedule to doctors he has trained, clinics he has opened and the extensive list of athletes he has trained throughout the world most notably Lance Armstrong and a Kenyan athlete called Lorna Kiplagat who since starting the training has achieved 5 world recordist medium distance running.

They also discuss Buteyko and optimal breathing patterns for athletic performance and how breathing patterns at rest relate to how athletes breathe during physical exercise.

They also discuss how breathing for performance can negatively impact health, nose vs mouth breathing during physical exercise and how this is related to a person's CP and health level.

Some of Dr. Artour's personal observations on his own breathing retraining journey in terms of sleep, why morning CP are most important in terms of progress and symptoms, how if students achieve 60 seconds CP, there morning CP'S will become more stable and they will see less of a drop.

They briefly discuss Dr. Artour's classes, his approaches to teaching the method and why he spends a lot of time teaching students about sleep as he believes it's vitally important.

They then discuss Juergens's sleep and the average sleep lengths for normal subjects in the western world and for people who are sick. They once again discuss a little more about Dr. Artour's breathing retraining journey from when he first discovered the Buteyko method, related to his initial sleep length, CP values and how he uses his experience of achieving high CP values and what he has learned from those experiences to teach his students. They end the video on a funny note as they discover they are both the same age.

Jürgen and Dr. Artour discuss a huge variety of topics in this video including when Dr. Artour first discovered Buteyko, using the method with his family, on becoming a practitioner, on writing his books, on discovering the community of buteyko practitioners, meeting people within the community, availability of information on the Buteyko method in Russian and English, various western research and studies in relation to the Buteyko method, Dr. Artour's websites, Buteyko practitioners, Dr. Buteyko and his discoveries, Dr. Artour's journey and his goals over the past years, evolving and progressing the Buteyko method and breathing retraining, Buteyko and chronic illnesses, peoples abilities to practise breathing retraining, meditation, breathing exercises, Intermittent hypoxic hyperoxic training, IHHT, Dr. Artour's experience with IHHT, the importance of physical exercise, the body oxygen/cp test, improvements after hypoxic hyperoxic sessions, Arkadi Prokopov, Low carb, ketogenic, carnivore and pkd diets, cancer treatment, Buteyko’s norm for health, breaking through 40cp, IHHT for complex situations and conditions that are hard to treat with buteyko, example of someone with CFS who improved and stabilised with IHHT, how lifestyle impacts breathing, factors which influence breathing, yoga masters, Dr. Buteykos life and training of doctors, breathing parameters at high cp’s, how people with poor health and lower cp’s are often sensitive to changes in oxygen, stimulating the mitochondria to improve there function and body oxygenation and the dangers of hyperventilation.
