Preparation And Conditioning For Skiing

 

Winter can be a splendid and enjoyable time of year, especially if you love outdoor activities like skiing.

Commonly, muscles that work to internally rotate the hips are activated and engaged during skiing – key for maintaining balance and coordination.

A great way to condition the body and build muscle memory for skiing is to practice your technique with the use of balance boards, in-line skates, or sports that require quick movements and changes of direction.

Another important aspect to skiing is the need for endurance and stamina. Interval training is a great tool to build endurance, where you maximize your input for short bouts of time. The gains made through interval training can translate into meaningful improvements to your overall endurance; however, as with all activities, progression is key.

If you are an avid skier, now is the time to start preparing your body for the season!
