=Iron Deficiency and Anemia=
If you are deficient in iron then it will be difficult for your body to adapt to altitude training. The best thing is to get your iron levels checked with a serum ferritin blood test. I have mine tested periodically at a local [http://www.walkinlab.com/ferritinserumtest.html Walk In Lab]. The cost is about $40, though they sometimes run offers.
=Feedback requested=
If you build one of these systems, I’d be grateful if you let me know how you get on. I’m also interested if you find any improved parts or other suggestions for improvements.
