Oh, and I just learned about some "secret" exercises that all skiers should be doing for powerful legs and reducing injuries. Click here to read about the secret exercises. The exercises were really awesome and helpful. I highly recommend it.

So I’m a high school ski-racer, and after seeing the Olympics yet again I feel like that is what I want to accomplish in my life; to stand atop the podium at the olympics with a medal draped around my neck. Saying that isn’t enough however, and I know that. What I really need to do are some ski-specific workouts. I’m looking for stuff that can be done with the following equipment: free-weights, ski machine, roller-blades (I know I don’t have all the fancy machinery a gym might have but it’s too expensive, and I hate going to the gym.). For roller-blades I’ve had the idea of setting up a mock race course with cones and skating through it. But I’m at a loss for exercises I can do with my free-weights. In addition, what would be a good diet? I.E one that is prime for muscle building, with minimal fat gain? If someone could help me, I would be much obliged. Thank you very much.

I went on the school skiing trip last year and did loads of workouts for that but I read somewhere that actually a lot of "skiing exercises" don’t actually do anything to help you when skiing. Does anyone know any exercises/stretches, etc. that will help prepare me for skiing again (not anything to do with exercise machines please (I don’t have any))
