If you are using the Isocapnic BWB, or thinking about it, one of the biggest questions is usually this: Where does this fit into my training? That is a fair question. A lot of athletes understand how to think about integrating Isocapnic training Into their athletic development. They have felt the panic of not being […]
Acute mountain sickness (AMS) is the classic tax you pay when you gain altitude faster than your physiology can keep up. Headache, nausea, fatigue, poor sleep, that “my brain is wrapped in cotton” feeling. It is common, it is miserable, and in some cases it can progress to serious conditions like high altitude cerebral edema […]
