Procrastinators Fitness Guide: 5 exercises to start ski conditioning

Fall colors are past peak in the high country of the NY Adirondacks.  There is snow in the high mountains of the Rockies.  Snow guns are running in Colorado, Vermont, and elsewhere.  Are you feeling ready for ski season?  There is still time to get into better shape.  But how to start?

The SkiNet Procrastinators Fitness Guide (link below) covers 5 exercises that can be done at home or in the gym.  Includes lunges, calf raises, hamstring lift.  Doing all the exercises could be a bit intense for someone who hasn't done any ski conditioning before.  In that case, take a look any way and decide on a few goals to work towards.

The objective is to do some deliberate ski conditioning three times a week for 6-12 weeks.  Remember that ski conditioning is not just a matter of strength.  Improving balance and flexibility can make skiing easier and more fun.
