HIKING MOUNT WHITNEY

  • Don and Vinnie tried to hike Mt. Whitney recently.
  • First, they stayed in Lone Pine.
    • It’s a very, very small place.
  • For Mt. Whitney, they only give 100 passes a day.
    • The question Vinnie and Don have is: why? There is so much space!
      • For other mountains in CA, WA, and CO, there are thousands every day.
    • They finally learned why, and got the 411 on the mountain’s rangers.
  • This year, Don and Vinnie climbed it without a pass — they know this wasn’t right, but they picked up trash on the way up and down.
  • They tried to do the hike a couple of days.
    • To prep, they did a shorter hike.
    • After a failed attempt for Vinnie, they were plagued by thunderstorms.
  • Vinnie, for whatever reason, got really sick while he was hiking and couldn’t summit.
    • He was disoriented and flu-ey, and he hadn’t been drinking water because that made him feel sick, too.
    • Vinnie was nearly falling over.
    • Don thought he physically lost him at one point!
      • He thought maybe he had gotten too dizzy and fallen off the mountain.

ULTRA SALT

  • Don had some misconceptions.
  • You CAN overdo salt.
  • He would do 1000 mg of salt with 16 oz of water.  Really, you only need that with a liter of water.
  • If you feel lightheaded or are going to do heavy exercise, take a couple of Ultra Salts, but there is a limit.
    • Vinnie says take 15-20 oz of water per Ultra Salt.
  • Too much water without electrolytes can be a problem; too much salt is the opposite problem.

DON’S FAT LOSS

  • Don has lost a substantial amount of weight.
  • Now, he can hike up and down Mount Whitney with much more ease.
  • Zone 2 training was also important for him.
  • For Don, pizza and ice cream is what got him high.
    • He needed to break the addiction and emotion-numbing effect of food.
