The air is thinner at high altitudes. There are fewer oxygen molecules per volume of air. To compensate for the decrease in oxygen, erythropoietin triggers the production of more red blood cells.

To compensate for the decrease in oxygen, one of the body's hormones, erythropoietin (EPO), triggers the production of more red blood cells to aid in oxygen delivery to the muscles.

... By training at high altitudes, athletes aim to allow their bodies to produce extra red blood cells.
