[QUOTE="Rifleman97, post: 2410018, member: 103996"] Altitude can “sort of” be simulated by wearing an altitude mask. Doesn’t make the pressure lower but makes your lungs work harder, when I was in high school we wore them and then went out to Estes park for a week to train for cross country, and none of us got altitude sickness running at 6000-9000ft or so since we had all been wearing those masks. Granted when we went up to one of the peaks at 12000 ft I think? We were nowhere near the condition we were at lower altitude, but no one got altitude sickness, just tired a lot faster. If you’re worried about the altitude they’re well worth the $30-50 that a good adjustable altitude mask runs. [/QUOTE]
