I do some half hour jogs and various squat/lunge/stair runs type things 3-5 times/week. I busted mah knee last year and am trying to get it real strong for some shredding!

What, if any, is your workout routine for skiing?
 
My preseaon work out is drinking 8 dollar vodka handles and eat a lot of turkey because it is really cheap that time of year.

 
I try to stick to this every week, usually i drop one or two of those due to lack of time

1 day/week indoor tramp training+foampit

1day/week indoor skiing

1day/week longboarding with friends from college

1day/week rockclimbing in the gym or outdoor if the weather is fine

1day/week swimming
 
I started back up hitting an elliptical hard for like 2-3 weeks with some rowing and some incline presses.

After that I broke in to jogging with more incline presses and leg extensions.

I think leg extensions are the most important thing for skiers. Just use the machine until your thighs burn and realize that you need to work out even more, since your thighs will burn just as bad if not worse when skiing.
 
I skied 100 days the season after I had knee reconstruction. I found that squats and the stair master provided the most help in my recovery. Runnings is ok for endurance and weight loss, but it's a lot of impact that isnt great for your knees even without recovering from an injury...i prefer the eliptical...
 
during the fall we had training for our freestyle team. Did alot of core workouts, squats, agility drills, and fun! other than that i go to the gym 3 or so times a week to keep those guns loaded.
 
I did:

16 week workout air alert starting last may

12 week lifting workout program and in now in week 10 and im probably going to restart it when im done

this is more for baseball...but i can't see why it wouldn't help for skiing. had a meniscus repair year and a half ago and i feel great.

I go to my local Crossfit gym. Lots of olympic lifting, power lifting and high intensity, varied exercises. Some days are fun and some days suck. I will continue throughout the year.
 
fap, go to parkour, fap, wash hands, eat, sleep, fap, shower, fap, shower again, do wallflips in gym class
 
put about 10 miles on the fixie every day. It's brakeless as well so my legs are always working to speed up or slow down.

repeat. seems to work fine.
 
I rollerblade for two hours every day, 7 days a week. Helps me with my cardiovascluar endurance, strengthens my legs, and its fun. Also i work on landing things switch so im better at it on skis.
 
crossfit plus some olympic lifting everyday.

it's more so cause i like to do it, not exactly to get me in shape to ski..but it helps.
 
same here. I broke my arm a couple months ago and lost all my motivation to work out at all. I skied the other day and realized how bad of shape my legs are in. I just always put it off. Oh, I'll do it tomorrow.. but then tomorrow comes and I say the same thing. Fuck me
 
It's the first season that I really work out before, I hope it's gonna pay off. Since school started I went to the gym 2-3 a week. I do bicycle, sit ups, leg curls, leg press, lunges with weights and a bit of shoulders. My season hasnt really started yet (thanks east coast) but my legs are so much stronger now so I hope it's gonna keep me injury free.
