Summary

Mont Blanc training plan.

Mont Blanc requires participants to ascend over 1600mtrs on the summit day to achieve this summit. Even though the mountain is technically basic it demands a solid fitness level to succeed.

After 3000 mtrs the body starts to acclimatize accordingly by producing more red blood cells to carry oxygen around the body. This requires energy and time which both depend on the individual.

This programme will prepare your body physically and mind mentally for the challenge ahead. It includes some strength work which can be completed at home if you don't have a gym membership.The rest of the plan requires you to find local hills and run outside. By steadily increasing the load put on the body each week we take you through step by step strength and endurance workouts each week.

Also included in the process is email support and advise so that you can turn up to your expedition confidently.
