Fitness for Ski Instructor Training: Long & Strong 17

Fitness for ski instructor training Long & Strong 17  is a leg session that you are going to know about tomorrow. Keeping the weight sensible and form perfect is key, there is no point using sloppy form and going heavy through a poor range of motion. While training to become a ski instructor movement quality is key. Sloppy form and poor movement mechanics just reinforce bad habits.

We only have a few weeks left on this cycle before we have a week of rest and recovery so keep pushing forward and keep your mobility and maintenance work up. We are nearly there.
