  To Learn 3 Functional Ski Exercises That Can Help

    You Build A Functional, Fit, Strong Skier’s Body .

. . 4 Steps You Need To Include In Your Ski

Training Workouts To Become A Fitter,

Stronger Better Skier This Winter…In order to ensure you are covering all your bases withyour ski fitness training, you need to be including all 4 of the following components into your ski workouts. If you include all of these you are going to build a fit, strong ski body and enhance your skiing performance in record time…

. Step 1 – Ski Training Dynamic  

Warmup

Perhaps most important part of your ski training workout is the Dynamic Warmup as it will help prepare your body for the functional strength ski exercises that follow. The dynamic warmup will also help mprove your mobility and help to overcome any muscle or postural imbalances that you may have, which can help in preventing any injuries.

Your dynamic warmup should include the following…

.

Corrective Exercises – These will help improve common postural and muscular imbalances you may have. For example there are corrective exercises to improve the movement at your hips, which is a common problem as many people have a tendency to move more from their lumbar spine instead of their hips increasing the risk of lower back injury.

Mobility Exercises – Mobility exercises will help improve your ability to actively move through a full range of motion which can directly enhance your movement patterns when skiing by helping you to be more efficient, expend less energy and reduce your injury risk.

Activation Exercises – These exercises will help turn on any under-active muscles so that when you are performing the functional strength exercises your muscles are more likely to fire in the correct sequence. For example many people are quadriceps dominant and have glutes that are underactive. This can lead to inefficient movement when skiing and even injury. By performing glute activation exercises you can turn on the muscles so that they will used correctly when needed.

Step 2 – Functional Strength Ski Exercises The main part of your ski training workout is the functional strength component and should include the following…

.

Balance, Core Stability and Rotational Core Exercises – Stability is extremely important for skiing and therefore needs to be adequately trained in your workouts. Exercises should be included that challenge your balance and core stability. In addition, as skiing requires a lot of rotational movements, you need to train both rotational stability and rotational power.

Multi-joint Exercises – The focus of your functional strength training should be on multi-joint exercises that use multi-planar movements (the 3 planes of movement). Gone are the days of doing isolated body building exercises. Instead you need to be doing compound movements like Squatting, Lunging, Lifting, Pushing (horizontal and vertical) and Pulling (horizontal and vertical).

Power Exercises – Your skiing will also benefit from including some power exercises which are basically strength exercises performed explosively. This will help develop power in your legs which is important for skiers.

Step 3 – Ski Specific Energy System Training (EST)

Energy System Training refers to the cardiovascular part of the workout. This can be done after the functional strength training part of your ski workout, or depending on time you may choose to split it up and do it on a different day, alternating days between functional strength and cardio.

The most effective way to train your energy systems is with High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). HIIT has been scientifically proven to significantly improve both your Aerobic (with oxygen – for more sustained efforts) and Anaerobic (without oxygen – more short burst energy) energy systems simultaneously.

Using High Intensity Interval Training also allows you to do a shorter workout and produce better results when compared to traditional cardio training.

The ultimate ski training cardio is when you use bodyweight exercises like squat jumps, combined with agility drills, so you can build leg endurance and skiing agility at the same time as increasing your aerobic and anaerobic endurance.

Step 4 – Static Stretching & Flexibility Exercises Performing static stretching and flexibility exercises are most at the very end of your workout. Stretching will help your muscles recover and promote increases in flexibility. Static stretching can also be done everyday and anytime of the day (not just with exercise).

In fact to make significant gains in flexibility it is better to stretch frequently so your muscles will stay lengthened and not revert back to being short and tight. To make the most of your stretching you need a full body stretch routine that you can follow along step-by-step.

Conclusion

If you want to become a fitter, stronger, better skier this winter then it is important to train using the latest exercise science. This includes including a dynamic warmup, functional strength training, energy system training and stretching & flexibility exercises.

If you incorporate all of these components into your ski training workouts then you are setting yourself up to enhance your skiing performance. If you don’t have a ski training program that follows these guidelines already, and would like a ski fitness plan that is easy to follow with step-by-step instructions, then make sure you read on…

Graham is Skiing Stronger & Faster and with more Endurance & Agility “Unlike some people who are lucky enough to spend full seasons each year on snow, I need to rely on dryland training to get in shape for skiing, to ensure that I can hit the slopes at full speed once the season starts, and to avoid the injuries which are a risk for all skiers but especially the 40yr plus age group. I have followed the original TSF for the last few years in the 2 months preseason, and over this time have found that at age 45 I am skiing faster, stronger and with more endurance and agiility than ever before. In particular, I have found that at the start of the season my performance levels return quickly after a few skills drills, and the aches and pains we all remember when learning to ski are a thing of the past. Plus, I am sure my performance in demanding conditions like moguls, variable snow and steeps has benefited significantly from the functiional core strength and dynamic balance which aredeveloped by some of the TSF exercises, but not by typical gym work like leg press and stationary bike.” Graham, UK
