[QUOTE="Red Sparky, post: 895625, member: 37223"] Definitely do a lot of aerobic workouts. The better your body uses O2 the better you will handle the high altitude. I live at about 5000 ft elevation and hunt 8000-9000 ft elevation. I have a tread climber, bad knees and can't take the impact of running, and when I first got it I lost 60 pounds in 6 months. Started off slow ( 3 times a week 20-30 minutes each day) then built up to 7 days a week 45 minutes to 1 hour per day. Tell you what going from 300 pounds down to 240 made hunting a heck of a lot easier and fun. Once you get into a routine it is easy to stay on it especially if you put a picture of a big bull you can look at when you are exercising. [/QUOTE]
