Prior to trekking be prepared mentally and physically. Aerobic training includes the training for your heart, lung, and blood cells. You can go for regular jogging, walking up and down, and cycling. It is also good to have the cardio-training for 2–3 months before the trek.

If you feel unwell during the trek, notify your guides and monitor your symptoms carefully. Acute mountain sickness can progress to pulmonary edema (fluid in your lungs) or cerebral edema (swelling of your brain). If it is not treated on time, these can be fatal.

So, it is highly recommended spending 1–2 days in Namche Bazaar and Dingboche. On the acclimatization day, you’ll go for light hiking. This will help with acclimatizing to the higher altitude.
