The proper way to train to climb a mountain is to climb lots of hills with a bag pack on, and many people don’t live near hills. Training in the gym and doing weights only will not be helpful rather you need to do stamina and cardio training like cross fit, ergo meter, circuit training, and running machines. Swimming is also the best way to maintain your heart health at altitude and the muscle groups you must concentrate on are the thighs and calf muscles.

Hurrying While Elevating
Exhausted Climber

Fitness and patience are the key factors you must have while ascending big mountains instead of being boastful and cocky . Enjoying the glimpse of the beautiful landscape and gaining experience instead of trying to conquer the mountain in a hurry is far more delightful and pleasant.
Not having the appropriate diet and proper hydration
Appropriate Diet & Proper Hydration
On a mountain climb, if you are not fueling yourself with enough calories and water you will be exhausted soon due to dehydration and lack of energy . Some people prefer to take the food favoring their taste buds, which will eventually make them fatigued after a few steps only. You should know that in big mountains you burn double or triple the calories and water then you do at sea level, so you need to bulk up on slow-burning carbs and drink adequate amount of water. The problem is that gulping down on a huge bowl of porridge early morning is not easy. The Sherpas will pack away a great batch of “tsampa” or roasted barley and it lasts them the whole day. Not eating the proper and enough meal and not drinking enough water will guarantee to come to an end of your expedition.
