What actually challenges you above 6,000 meters?

Just wrapped up a great conversation with Martin Kysel, who summited #Aconcagua last season with @grajales.expeditions after completing the breathwork training with @recaltraining

We talked about the 14-hour summit push, respiratory muscle fatigue, managing breathlessness, and what surprised him most when the training met reality on the mountain.

If you’ve got a big climb coming up, there’s plenty here to chew on.

The first thing to fail on Aconcagua isn’t your legs.

It’s something else.... something most climbers never even think to train.

But these climbers get it. They’re working on it right there in the @grajales.expeditions tent at basecamp.

After working with hundreds of mountain athletes preparing for peaks like Everest, Aconcagua, Denali, and Kilimanjaro, @anthonylorubbio from @recaltraining noticed the same pattern over and over again:
→ Fit people struggling for reasons they couldn’t explain.

In his upcoming live workshop: “The Missing Piece in Your High Altitude Preparation”

…he’ll reveal what most expedition training plans leave out — and why it matters more than you think.

My heart is so full! There’s something incredibly special about being a student, taking what someone teaches you, living it, testing it in the most extreme environments imaginable and then being invited back to share what you learned along the way. Thank you @recaltraining for teaching me how important breath work is at altitude and it was an honor to have this time to share ❤️ You really took this convo well beyond breath work… and I left my heart full ❤️ https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=I4sXtQgjhVs&ra=m by @recaltraining

“The climb is hard. The view is timeless.”

There is a moment on every expedition where the weight of the pack and the thinness of the air test your resolve. But then, the horizon begins to glow. Standing above the clouds as the sun breaks over the Andes isn’t just a view—it’s a reminder of why we push our limits.

Most people only talk about their summits.
Almost no one talks honestly about their failed attempts.

That’s why we’re hosting a special livestream with Recal client Dave Taylor (@livefast_playhard) - a guy who went to Aconcagua his first time, but came home without the summit.

And then?
He went back — with a new approach, revamped training (@alpineathletics_), rebuilt his breathing mechanics (@recaltraining), and climbed with @grajales.expeditions — and stood on top of Aconcagua on his second attempt.

This is the stuff mountain athletes rarely get to hear:
- What actually went wrong the first time
- The mistakes he didn’t realize he was making
- Why his “pretty solid shape” still wasn’t enough for 22,800 ft
- The training shifts (including breathwork) that made the difference

And yes, we’ll have Q&A time at the end so you can ask Dave anything.

RSVP in the link in our stories — or manually go to Recal.training/#rsvp-live to register your spot.

See you tomorrow at 12 USA Eastern Time.

Have you incorporated breathwork training into your Aconcagua expedition prep?

Challenges come in many forms on #Aconcagua, and you’ll need more than just physical strength to endure — your oxygen uptake capacity, altitude endurance (amidst extreme low oxygen), and mental resilience will be tested.

That’s why we’re hosting this FREE webinar with @anthonylorubbio, founder of @recaltraining, to help you integrate breathwork into your training for your upcoming Aconcagua expedition with @grajales.expeditions.

—> comment “RSVP” and we’ll DM you the link to join

Anthony will break down the science behind altitude adaptation while highlighting how breathwork training can improve oxygen efficiency for increased endurance, optimized performance, and faster recovery. He will also show you a few techniques you can start today from home to kick-start your breathwork training as you prepare for your next expedition. We’ll also host a live Q&A to get your questions answered.

So, if you’re gearing up for an Aconcagua climb — or looking to train smarter for any of your high-altitude objectives — this session is for you.

COMMENT “RSVP” to receive your link to the FREE webinar and discover how breathwork can give an edge to your expedition training.

Breathe stronger—so you can climb higher, dig deeper, and go farther.

Join us for this FREE webinar, as Anthony from Recal will break down the evidence-based protocols behind high-altitude breathwork training.

You’ll learn how it can improve oxygen efficiency, make adaptations in advance of your expedition, increase your endurance, and boost recovery during acclimatization.

The 5 Breath Assessments Every Athlete Should Know

Body Oxygen Level Test Score:
What it measures: Your body’s automatic response to the feeling of breathlessness, and therefore how efficiently, especially biochemically (oxygen-carbon dioxide balance), you breathe.

CO2 Tolerance Test Score:
What it measures: Your body’s sensitivity to carbon dioxide (CO₂) and breathing control under stress—keys for endurance and altitude performance.

Maximum Breathlessness Test:
What it measures: Yet again, your carbon dioxide tolerance, but also how well you can control your breathing under movement stress—essential for mountaineering and endurance training.

Location of Movement Test:
What it measures: Where your breath movement happens—chest, ribs, or belly—and whether you’re using the right mechanics to breathe most efficiently.

Range of Motion Test:
What it measures: How much your rib cage can expand and contract—which indicates the overall flexibility of your thoracic cavity and rib cage. Therefore, this is an informal gauge (without special equipment) of your lung capacity and ability to breathe mechanically-efficient.

Mountaineers: Understand this before you climb above 14,000 feet.

In our recent webinar “Breathwork Training for Mountaineers” at @climbingthesevensummits, @anthonylorubbio from @recaltraining goes into the reasons WHY you actually struggle for air at high altitude.

Watch this clip as he guides us into a closer look at the real reason—not the vague “there’s less oxygen” you often hear, but what’s happening around and inside you — that you struggle for air at high altitude.

From shifts in the partial pressure of oxygen (yes, it matters) to how your chemoreceptors detect those changes and ramp up your breathing rate in response—this is the essential physiology every high-altitude athlete should understand.

But also, you should know that just because breathing FASTER is automatic, does not mean it’s optimal — especially if you don’t have proper breathing mechanics or trained your respiratory muscles to handle this extra workload.

If the science sparks something—or you want to learn more about how breathwork fits into all this—drop a comment and let’s keep the conversation going.
