IMHO as a ski patroller, ski exercises ought to concentration on some distinctive issues: capability, aerobics/agility, and stability. For capability, your common muscle tissue you prefer to concentration on are quads and hamstrings. holding those muscle tissue good enables the knee in capacity harm circumstances. Assuming you have no knee injuries, leg extensions, squats, and hamstring curls are all great. do no longer ignore to artwork your abs to with the aid of fact it particularly is going to help your stability...crunches, pilates, and so on. For cardio/agility, leaping rope is particularly effectual! additionally working, cycling, good trekking, rollerblading...something that gets you cardio on a similar time as shifting the legs around. finally, stability could properly be further some diverse procedures. you will get a stability board and play around on that. you additionally can attempt doing all your top physique weights on one leg (confident, rather!)...purely be confident to commerce which leg! those are all great for the two ski season and stale season
