Strength and Ski/Snowboard Specific





Today we warmed up with a 10 to 1 strength workout that included squat jumps, deadlifts with kettelbells and clean, squat and press with kettelbells. Today was the first day that I had everyone bring in their skis or snowboards. It worked really well to get everyone back in their ski gear and feel their skis and snowboards on their feet. I think doing sandbag ski/snowboard hops really helps to start to feel your skis and work on quickness and power in your actual gear. It also really helps train anaerobic systems through quick intervals. Also this is low impact and does not hurt your knees which is great.
