Fitness for Ski Instructor Training: Long & Strong 19

Fitness for ski instructor training long and strong 19 is again focused on adding a few extra kilos to your squats. Remember form is always more important than weight moving the weight effectively through a full range of motion is far more effective than loading the bar with as many plates as you can and then slightly bending your knees.

If you physically can not get through a full range of motion squat then prioritise your mobility.
