Here's hoping that 2021 will see a return to both normal training as well as racing. We've worked hard recently to make sure we are keeping our distance from others and skiing as families. Please make sure that we stay vigilant in the weeks to come.
Wednesday - Strength Training on Zoom
Please join between 5:15PM and 5:25PM so that we can start at 5:30PM
https://us02web.zoom.us/j/5602405075 or use meeting ID: 560 240 5075
BEFORE you start the workout, please make sure of the following:
- Make sure you have a safe place to perform basic bodyweight exercises
- Look for an open area 6ft x 8ft on a soft floor (e.g. carpet or mats) that isn't slippery
- Make sure you work with your parents to test your computer set-up to you can see, and be seen, as well as hear, and be heard
- Make sure you have proper athletic clothing and a water bottle
DURING the workout, please have a strong commitment to:
- Listen to ALL the instructions
- Try to do ALL the exercises with excellent form
- Put forth a consistent effort throughout the ENTIRE workout
Parents are welcomed and encouraged to join in as all of these exercises will help your skiing too! Now that we have a week to get familiar with the exercises, we'll move at a bit more consistent pace.
If you were NOT at last week's session, please be sure you review the exercises HERE beforehand.
Saturday - SKATE
Start with some no poles skiing to work on your balance and your glide. Watch the drills from last week for more practice. We'll be out on the Sochi Extension from 10:00AM to 11:00AM and are hoping to see your great balance and gliding. Consider parking up at the Sochi Extension lot and see if you can skate two (or more) loops of the Extension!
Sunday - CLASSIC (Waxing Instructions on Saturday Night - KLISTER!)
Watch the following videos and do these drills on the Teaching Flats BEFORE you start
After your drills, skittledaddle up to Kim's Loop as we'll be skiing there between 10:00AM to 11:00AM and hopefully we'll be able to see your great balance and smooth glide!
Challenge yourself to STRIDE the entire way UP The GRIND
