A reappraisal of HIIT from the IJSPP #1 dl'd paper (2023) using the work-balance model and better (correct?) anchor to normalize intensity...

1st bsky post!

Pre-acclimation in the lab (1hr/d x 12d @ 3200->5400m) to Renjo la pass, Cho la pass, Gokyo Ri, Kala Pattar and Everest base camp (all ~5400m).

Pre-acclimation definitely works! Had little or no AMS despite a relatively fast ascent profile.
