This is how ski training is fun: Sandra Lahnsteiner biking in Gastein. Endurance is immensely important in skiing and even reduces the risk of injury, according to the freerider.
Perfect for strong legs: knee bends with weight. It is the central exercise in skiing par excellence. And you can perform them anywhere.
Training goal for more balance: one-legged knee bends on the Bosu Ball. "The outdoors is also perfect for practicing: balancing on the sidewalk, walking over stones," says Sandra Lahnsteiner.
If you want to jump while skiing, you need a stable trunk. One strengthens these muscles considerably with push-ups.
After skiing, yoga provides relaxation. Also important in the evening: refill the empty water reservoirs, otherwise there will be cramps the next day.
Especially jumps are visualized by the professionals beforehand. This is Sandra Lahnsteiners insider tip: "The head must be ready, one must want it."
