SKI PREP
SkiPrep is a training program designed to prepare you physically for skiing. It's not an extensive weight loss program, not „let me strengthen my legs my legs a bit“ before the trip, not three padel or yoga sessions instead of two per week.
About the program
About the application
About the snowscape
The goal of SkiPrep is to ensure that your quads don't burn after three runs down the ski slope. It aims to boost your confidence and increase safety on steeper slopes, as well as prevent muscle soreness. As a physiotherapist, I place a particular focus on minimizing the risk of injury.
What is the difference between SkiPrep and regular online training?
Personalized, for real
Each program is personalized and entirely individual. Truly personalized! Based on a detailed assessment of your psychophysical condition, I will give you my feedback and create a training plan just for you.
Consultations
Video consultations are also included in the program. Once a week, you can schedule a 15 minutes Zoom audio or video consultation. You can use it for me to further demonstrate or explain an exercise, or to observe how you perform a specific movement and advise you on what needs correction.
Chat
Chat is there so you can message me at any time, and I will do my best to respond within 24 hours.
Guide to the SkiPrep Program
01
Filing in ski passport
It's important that you fill out your ski passport because it will help me understand your condition and, in turn, create the most effective program for you.
Wait for my recommendations regarding the scope and method of training. If you have any concerns, questions, or doubts, feel free to contact me. If not, I will send you the program, and you can start your preparations.
02
Training
The duration of your skiing preparation depends on your physical condition, your desires, needs, and the amount of free time you have. Ideally, I recommend approximately one month of preparation for a physically active person. For a moderately active person, the recommended timeframe is approximately two months. If you haven't engaged in any physical activity in the past six months, I advise preparing for three months.
03
Feedback
It would be great if you could provide me with feedback on your completed workouts at the end of each week. This will help me fine-tune, adjust, or replace exercises that may not suit you for any reason.
So, every exercise is subject to change! If everything went well in the past week, you just let me know that we are continuing as planned. There's no pressure, I will interpret your silence as approval too.
04
Video consultations
You always have the option to connect with me once a week, either by voice or video, so we can focus on details.
Bonus
As a gift, to wish you an enjoyable trip, you'll receive from me a set of exercises that will help you prepare for hitting the slopes and aid in your recovery after a full day of skiing.
What will you get from SkiPrep program?
Through the synchronized activation of the upper and lower body, you will achieve more efficient movements. This means that every turn on the slope will be performed with minimal energy loss.
Your power transfer will also improve – you'll easily shift power from your legs to your arms, i.e., ski poles, achieving better acceleration and more precise ski control.
Stability exercises will provide better ski or snowboard control. It's great to maintain balance, but I want you to maintain stability too – to stay in the position you desire rather than adapting to the situation.
Proprioception is crucial for injury prevention because it relates to the body's ability to recognize its position in space and the relationship between body parts.
Plyometric exercises will improve your coordination and nervous system response. You'll easily adapt to changes in terrain, change direction more quickly, and handle jumps and landings more comfortably. For beginners, this might not be of utmost importance, but for someone looking to take their skiing to the next level, it's essential.
Joint mobility will provide comfort, elegant turns, and easier recovery from mistakes.
These are just some of the most important benefits you'll gain once you complete the program. You'll also experience all the positive effects that would come with regular exercise:
Improved cardiovascular health.
Increased muscle mass.
Improved muscle endurance.
Better bone health.
More energy.
Better posture.
Improved sleep.
Strengthened immune system.
Stress relief.
Fat loss - Not guaranteed! Dietary changes are required.
