Let's Get Ready For Ski Season

Listed below are some great exercises to start incorporating into your fitness routine now before you hit the slopes! These exercises will help strengthen your legs, core, and balance to get you prepped and ready to ski again. I would recommend doing these exercises at least 2x a week and then you can progress over the weeks by doing more reps and more weight to the exercises. Please consult with your doctor before hand to make sure you are able to move forward with these moves especially if you have any underlying health conditions. Thus, let's start doing these exercises to help prevent injury and help keep us strong all winter long!

Do each of these exercises without weights first and then over the next few weeks you can add weights and or more repetitions. I would start with 2x10-15 reps for each exercise, and for the planks you can start at 30 seconds. You can then increase 10-20% more each week then.

1. Squats
2. Side Lunges
3. Single Leg Dead Lifts
4. Speed Skaters
5. Plank
6. Side Plank
7. Glute Bridges
8. Squat Jumps
9. Hip Openers to the Side
10. Leg Raises to the Side

​Happy Skiing Y'all!
