Steriods, 6+ hrs at the gym each day, sleeveless shirts, and drink muscle milk. That will make you a better skier.

Pretty much any core exercise is good, a strong core will help prevent back injuries. If you can get a chin up bar and curl up so you can kick the roof its really good for core strength, bicycles are really good along with crunches. Legs are important to keep strong to help prevent knee and hip injuries. Squats on balance boards or exercise balls if you have great balance are super good. You will want to work you're stabilizer muscles a lot to prevent injuries, thats why squatting on a balance board is better than just solid ground. Jump squats are also very good for helping with your pop. Just do a balanced work out and include some of these exercises.

Most of my advice is from my chiropractor, I have been seeing him a lot over a back injury from last season and a recent knee injury, these are the exercises he recommended.

honestly man, this will sound lame but do P90X. P90X is a really intense training and diet program that will make u fit head to toe. It works on strength , flexibility , power, endurance and syergenics. I guarantee u will become more fit then u have ever been and u will become a much better skiier. The program requires a lot of time and mental and physical determination. Its not for everyone, but it seriously works. \\


combine this with lots of tramping and ur gold :)

Stretching is really good as it streghthens all your tendons and makes it harder to injure. Also you'll be more flexible in the air with grabs and stuff!

fucking go to the gym and lift weights, balance between upper body and lower body, lots of core. Do lots of cardio, running biking spinning, etc. I dont care what anyone says trampolining is a pretty bullshit "workout". IT may be good for muscle memory but if you are serious, get your ass in the gym and workout.

Definitely work on flexibility, Also inline skating for rail tricks, and tramp and cliff jumping helps a lot for air awareness.

summer seshs, diving board, and just work out your whole body. But like said above stability work is 100 times better than just traditional body building

Thats complete bullshit, sorry.

Work on flexibility for sure, but go down to the gym. Do lots of squats and deadlifts. If you want a good program look up Starting Strength. Squats are far better for building core strength than balancing on a ball or any shit like that.

Also look up plyometrics and get a good routine. It aims to increase your vertical jump height and explosiveness, which is all good for skiing and life in general.

well rounded workout. high weight low rep free weight stuff and eat a lot of food to build muscle then in the fall you can focus more on "pushup type" conditioning if that makes sense

you could turn yourself into the hulk by going to the gym constantly, but you haven't gotten any better at skiing. summer setups are the way to go.

this pretty much

rollerblading is good too will help with your balance a lot since you really cant land back or front seat on blades. and you cant land sketchy.
