well to make long story short i got a job in a bungee club.
But they require me to jumb bungee! :/
I today jumped 2 times reverse bangee which was kinda sick.
Physicaly i can not run more than 50 seconds ( yeh true because i spend all day working behind computer as webmaster )
What kinda training helps to increase G tolerance as most of you guys here are pilots maybe you give spome advice?!

I’m not sure if you can do an Anti-G Straining Manoeuvre (AGSM) while reverse bangee jumping…
…whatever that is! :confused:
To do the G maneuver while inverted would be dangerous and would be the opposite of what you need to do physiologically.
It sounds more like he is getting motion sickness.
All I usually get from inverted G is a headache and tired. Yes you can get nauseous, but most people get over it right away.
I think some people get nauseous because the extra blood to the inner ear and brain can throw your senses off. However most people recover quickly after returning to positive G..
I agree with kicks some moderate weight lifting/strengthening exercise should help some.
If you’re just having motion sickness, just a little practice on the bungee cord will probably build your tolerance up.

Also, consider becoming a woman.
They also tolerate G-forces better then men.:D

The bodies best suited to resisting G-Forces are short and stocky. Thin, lanky people find it harder to fight them.
Hence, resistance training would be the best form of training to help, that is lots of weights. Lots of aerobic training will make you leaner but not help with the G Force. However it is important to do some of this training also, but just make it as an ad on to the resistance training.
Don’t forget a good diet. Also if you don’t exercise reguarly in the last 2 years consult a doctor before starting a new exercise programe.
