alright so ski season is coming up (slowly, but it is) and I was wondering if any of you do some serious or not so serious workout to be at the top of your form on the mountain and what is it you do.

I know theres been multiple threads on "best ski workout" but i'm curious to see how many of you actually get off ns and go out exercise :)

Slacklining doesnt do a whole lot, but when i got my tramp in 7th grade i was 150. Now im a sophmore and i am 142. Anyway i do alot of rowing in the fall and spring, it really builds up quad strength and core strength. I cant do alot of sports that involve running, cause my knees are mangled.

Squats, deadlifts, lunges. Throw in some upper body work to protect yourself during falls and you're set. Fuck that bosu ball bullshit.

Done it. I'm not trying to do squats on the damn things though. Most people don't have the coordination for it and if they do there are better ways to work balance anyway.

this guy has a point, I'm surprised nobody has mentioned swimming yet, probably because its fucking hard and tiring, literally the best overall workout you can do. It's aerobic but if you really get into it you start building muscle off of it, with 0 negative impact to your body. (unless your seriously over-training, but that happens in everything) Combine that with some weight training and you will be in the best shape of your life.
