What diet and exercise changes will i need if im going into a high altitude environment?

by admin on June 28, 2010

im going to new zeland for a ten day snow-boarding holiday with my school, and i need to know what diet and exercise changes i will need to make before entering this high altitude environment.
Thanks.

When you’re at high altitude, there is less oxygen and results to the heart working harder. While it is good for endurance, it could also make you sick. In this case, you have to drink more water and stay away from alcohol. You also need to minimize on the salt and eat regular carbs. One thing to remember when you’re still starting your exercise in high altitude is to work slowly. You need to be sure your body gets used to the amount of oxygen before you push it to the limit.

Just make sure you’re in good shape with cardio activities and you’re good
