Skiing & snowboarding
A season that rewards anyone who prepared for it.
What it asks of you
Legs that can hold an isometric position for a whole run, single-leg strength for uneven ground, and trunk control for landings. Eight weeks before the season is worth more than anything during it.
Where to build durability
Knees, above everything. Landing mechanics and single-leg strength are the preparation that matters.
Training guidance, not medical advice. Pain that persists is a question for a clinician, not a programme.
