Winter is rapidly approaching and many of us are dreaming of blue bird backcountry days, pow laps and groomer runs. With that also comes the sore butt and screaming hammies. That's why for our first installment of Backcountry Beta, we're teaming up with Ski Babes to learn how to tune up our bodies and minds for the season. 

When: Wednesday, November 1st at 5 pm PST

Where: On the Zooms

How: Join the Clubhouse and register for the event!

Taking good care of yourself isn’t just something to practice in everyday life. We can bring self-care into the mountains too. In this session, we’ll cover what mind and body training looks like for winter sports, including: 

• Priorities for winter strength

  • Posterior chain: booty power

  • Core strength: stability on slippery surfaces

  • Twisting & rotation resistance

  • Tensegrity: impact absorption for happy joints

  • Balance challenges: playful & practical

• Three favorite exercises for skiers & snowboarders

  • Why these exercises matter

• Nervous system & mental health-informed training

  • Titration: growth without overwhelm

  • Periodization: training for the cycles of life

  • Self-talk: how you talk to yourself matters

  • Weakest Link Syndrome

  • Anti-diet culture: nourish yourself
