Ski Companion Level I
6 Weeks
12 Sessions

Equipment Needed: Kettlebell

Ski Companion Level I was developed with the active mountain resident in mind. Look to improve hip mechanics and posterior strength to help support the quad dominant nature of skiing. This program builds a strong foundation of core endurance and lower extremity strength to keep you healthy and balanced on the trail. This program is a 2x/week frequency allowing time for the skier to recover from long days on the mountain, yet still excel in the gym. There's purposefully an absence of quad dominant movements (squats, step ups, lunges etc) because it's expected that you're skiing frequently if this program is being selected. Ski Companion Level I progresses every other week and lasts 6 weeks.

The program begins with lighter weights and higher volume before tapering down towards heavier weights in the latter weeks. Skier Legs Level I balances knee dominant exercises into the program to keep synergy between muscle groups. Expect to feel solid on your skis capable of overcoming any terrain. This program progresses in week 3 and 5 in either exercise selection, rep scheme, rest time, or a combination of the above.
