This Free Online Yoga Class Will Help You Get In Shape For Ski Season

It’s the time of year where everyone starts scrambling to get in shape for the upcoming ski season. Internet searches for “how to get in shape before ski season” skyrocket, gyms fill up with people ripping leg blasters, and the skiing subreddit is hammered with people asking for help planning a workout routine.

Getting in shape for ski season requires focus on both strength and endurance, so there isn’t really one workout to do it all. Instead you should focus on building leg strength and core strength while working on your endurance through sports like running or biking. For building that strength while also working on flexibility, many will turn toward yoga, and this ~45 minute routine focused on skiers from Five Parks Yoga is a great place to start.

Again, there is no one way to get in shape for ski season. If yoga is appealing to you, to yoga. If you’d rather go trail running, do that instead. At the end of the day, skiing is about having fun, so why can’t the preseason be about the same?
