Training 4/24 - Strength, Core, & Yoga

4/24/2023

0 Comments

 
Well, the weather has not entirely cooperated for either hanging out in the sun nor crust skiing BUT it's still spring and there are some moments of lovely!

You still want to be doing activities that sound fun to you or are eustress (help you in your recovery like yoga, walks, stretching, rolling, etc.) BUT you might want to start adding in some OD type things, runs, bike rides, climbing, etc.

There is also still TONS of snow and it's a great idea to get on your skis. Spring skiing, especially crust skiing, is a gift to us and allows us to gain valuable ski skills when others are already on their feet! They are still grooming Happy Jack or go do some plowing through deep snow in the Snowies or Chimney Park. The crust skiing has been elusive but it will eventually come!

We will strength, core & yoga again this week, to help with that eustress and start to rebuild our opposing muscle groups.

Team Training:
Tuesday: 5:10pm, Corbett Gym, rebuilding Strength, Core, & Yoga. You can join us for Core and Yoga on Zoom, just let us know if you'd like the link!
Thursday: 5:10pm, Corbett Gym, rebuilding Strength, Zoom Core & Yoga

We got to ski!!!!!! It was a fantastic day on the trails! 10km loop with amazing early season skiing! Unfortunately there is still no snow at Happy Jack so we'll be back to dry land again this week AND we had the unfortunate time change happen as well. Makes for a rough time for training.

We will also change up our strength AND our core this week.  


Please watch for changes, the training for this week is our best guess.

Be sure to check it out for both our team training as well as when you are on your own.

WOW!!! What an amazing weekend of training in an incredibly beautiful place!
Also super impressed with the incredible work that everyone put into this weekend, including the cook-off on Saturday night!

This week we will be allowing your body to soak up the intensity so you can super-compensate and RAGE so we'll be doing a little less intensity this week.

Be sure to check it out for both our team training as well as when you are on your own.
