Winter has arrived and there is snow on the mountains which means many of you are going to be grabbing your gear and hitting the slopes. Skiing is a whole body activity that requires a considerable amount of leg and core strength, balance, and neuromuscular control to stay upright through turns and on uneven ground. It is important to perform strengthening exercises to address the specific needs of skiing in order to get the most out of your runs and decrease your risk of sustaining an injury on the mountain.
