First off, let me apologize for not getting this post to you last week. I had some serious server issues that wouldn't allow me to post any video. Problem solved. So let's get down to business.
As previously promised here are two more exercises to get you better prepared to enjoy your winter season of snowboarding, skiing, and ice skating.
Much like any sport or activity, a strong core, stable but flexible hips and strong legs are all just a part of being prepared. But when it comes to winter sports activities you are also faced with the significant slick and unstable surface of the ice and snow. So you want to be extra sure that your core, hips and legs are ready for a full day of cutting loose and feeling the rush of the air in your face.
Today's exercises will help you do just that, strengthen your legs and hips as well and improve your overall hip flexibility and functioning. As with all of the exercises I demonstrate, I would encourage you to warm up properly (rolling and stretching) and then perform them. As always, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Next week I will share two more movements to improve your overall hip and leg strength as well as a special little bonus.
Have a Happy and safe New Year's Celebration.
