I want to climb to the top of mt. Everest. Any experienced /fit/ mountain climbers here? Have any of you attempted the climb?

I had a look into it, amd the Tibet side looks cheaper/better. You can only climb at certain times of year and shit. You also ought to have a good deal of experience on smaller peaks.
Run a marathon. Sounds a bit ridiculous but it will build the mental toughness youd need for the conditions, and should help you manage your bodyweight through the stop start aerobic activity. Its also worth doing some light cardio or hill climbs in high volume clothing to get used to the new way of moving.
Really tho, if you can climb nevis or snowdon then physically youre not far off of everest (with a sherpa carrying your shit). Its the conditions thatll be hard, even with down suits and altitude boots.
Also dont be poor, even renting the kit and getting the permits and shit for basecamp will set you back a fuck of a lot
Dont do it i heard its really high

You don't even have to be that fit to do Everest anymore. Mountaineers consider it tourist tier.
K2 or Denali are the patrician summits.

K2 east face or bust
you better ask on /out/. About 50% of /fit/ isn't even working out and 95% of the rest is doing it for aesthetics/girls.
I think you ought to climb smaller mountains first.
Climbing the mount everest because /fit/ sounds like you wanna hijack a plane because two and a half year ago you rode a scooter for two streets.

Not really. It really is tourist tier now.
