Got the T shirt
code blue has nailed it for the high altitude living, I think from memory that base camp on Everest is 18,000ft?
Some Athletes also train at altitude before a major event to increase there bodies abilitly to hold O2 in the blood = better preformance.(sprinters)
I heard that some athletes drain a pint of blood off a few weeks before a event and then stick it back in there body before competeting so they can absorb more O2 to enhance their preformance, not sure whether this is true or not?
Anyone know??
