Conscious Large Breaths at Altitude

At altitude, if headache or shortness of breath develops, consciously take larger breaths of air despite fatigue. This may help the body adapt more quickly.

1 / 1

If you do find yourself at altitude and you have a headache or you're feeling like you just can't catch your breath, spending some time really consciously trying to draw in larger breaths of air, as much as that might seem fatiguing and you'll be short of breath, it will allow you to adapt more quickly.
