Training 4/20 - Core & Yoga

4/20/2026

0 Comments

 
Still making our way through spring with it's weird weather, busy schedules, and fun training!

What you should be focusing on at this point is FUN and recovery! You should basically only be doing activities that sound fun to you or are eustress (help you in your recovery like yoga, walks, stretching, rolling, etc.) We would very much prefer that you do not rollerski at this time of year, it can cause some solid injuries if started too soon. 

There is also still snow in the Snowies 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! This week the Snowies might get to have some crust, if you go before Thursday. Otherwise you can do some backcountry trudging!.

  • 4:15pm, Corbett Gym, Core & Yoga

Still on the plan to just have some fun but adding a tiny bit of core! Enjoy the nice weather, do some skiing, go biking, sunbath, hit the climbing gym, have FUN!!!

We are hoping crust skiing is in our future but for now it's probably backcountry in the Snowies since there was 22" last week and there is more forecasted for this week.

We will start with some chill yoga this week, to help with that eustress and make us all happy to see each other!

  • If you do the training properly and don't do too little (you'll get sick!)
Even if you are not qualifying for Nationals this will help you with the last couple of races and if you decide to do any other races!​

The workouts we have on the schedule are not all team practices BUT if you want to be at your best for the ski season they are ALL super important!

We hope you had a magical holiday break and are ready to 'get the engine running' as the German coach at the World University Games told us!

​This week will be a tad in the air as we are trying to navigate the snow situation. For those who have not been in town there is beautiful skiing at Chimney Park but it is 40 minutes drive away. There has been no skiing at Happy Jack, which is 15 minutes from town. This means that we'll have to see what happens for Wednesday. We have put the time so that we can go out to Chimney Park if necessary. 

We also have changed our strength training to Tuesday/Thursday.

Last, but most exciting, we have our first official USCSA Rocky Mountain Conference Qualifier this weekend! YAY!!!!

Congratulations to everyone who finished the semester and those who raced at in Duluth! We had some ups and some downs as people struggled to recover from Finals but we got it done! Great job everyone!

While it is awesome to go home, visit family and friends, eat great food, sleep tons and generally be lazy this is a very important time for training. All those things are helpful and fun if you get some training in first! If you want to get all tuned up for the upcoming season you'll need to do some work!
