After a long day of reorganizing my office (trust me it's an all day affair) I thought I might hit the gym and pump some iron to reinvigorate myself. I made it to the garage and that was about as far as my feet would take me. Instead, I decided to hit the web and strengthen my dexterity searching for sites that provide information on snow sports health and fitness. There is a plethora of information on this subject out there but I tend to only recommend sites that are well organized and have good information. Below are a few you might be interested in:
Winter Feels Good A great site for the latest skiing news and some useful tips on preparing for the slopes.
Snowlink This site features news and links to other sites that carry snow sports health and fitness information.
Snowlink Jr. Parents will find tips and information about getting their kids interested and prepared for the slopes.
Epic Ski Forum Looking for a forum of your peers to discuss snow sports training. You’ll find it here. This site offers a good place to ask questions and voice your opinions on everything from gear to fitness.
Core Performance This site does not have ski specific information but does include some great general information on sport specific fitness. Mark (the author of
Core Performance) does a great job selecting, writing and organizing the information on this site.
