The most common question on my NIMAS BMC blog was how to get an A in BMC , what should be the training & what knowledge is required. Taking all the questions into consideration and discussing with my fellow mountaineers I have finally managed to write this eBOOK which would be helpful for all the new mountaineers to get an A in basic mountaineering course. This BMC book includes training, introduction to mountaineering terms & techniques , more mountain knowledge & some of my “BRO tips ” to get a flying start on your mountaineering journey.
Getting an A in BMC is must to qualify for advanced course AMC. After putting all your efforts over 30 days and not getting an A grade just breaks your morale. So its my humble request to put all the efforts in training both physically & mentally. I have set up guidelines to help you to get a flying start for your glorious mountaineering career with this ready reckoner for an Alpha grade for an alpha mountaineer in you.
“Your Videos & Blogs motivated me to join NIMAS BMC. I have been following the training guidance from the book since last two months. I am in much better shape and excited for the course. Thanks a lot ” – Deepak Rathod .
I had planned my entire course reading your blog & was happy that all the Alpha Mountaineer knowledge came in handy throughout the course. Only 13 from our 66 batch got ‘Alpha’ and i am so happy I am one of them. Thank you Sir, hope we cross in the mountains some day” – Manas Sharma

Course is not easy but training hard would help a lot. Take all the efforts during training so you become your best possible version. When you start with the training make sure not over train on Day 1 . This is a marathon, not a sprint. The power of training and building muscles lies in consistency & discipline. Start training for half an hour but do it daily for 7 days before increasing it to 45 minutes rather than training 2 hrs on day 1 and then taking rest for 3 days. Be focused on your end goal.
I have created this website for trekkers & mountaineers as a reliable guide to enjoy mountains. Any purchases will directly support the operational costs of my website. Your support will motivate me in pursuing my dream of building an Indian mountain wikipedia.
You will not get an A just by downloading the ebook. You will need to put every possible effort in training & prepare yourself for the course. Sweat during training so as to not bleed during the war. Train consistently so that you can enjoy the course rather than being a burden on others. Happy training !
