Abnormally high blood pressure; ex: 140/90

question

Regular physical activity can help control blood lipid abnormalities, diabetes and obesity.

question

At higher elevations, there are hypoxic conditions (oxygen deprivation). At certain high elevations, oxygen is scarce and this lack of oxygen can potentially cause brain damage or a loss of brain cells.

Aside for just sleep, Climbers may also return to lower elevations for a "resting period."

Explain the rationale for mountain climbers' to continuously return to lower elevations before climbing into hypoxic conditions.
