Poster: A snowHead
|
Ok, so have lost about a stone and a half trying to get skinny for my wedding in january - check! I've had a couple of months of slacking since then and kept the weight off but now the clock is ticking to get fitter for our honeymoon as I really want to make the most of it by NOT being fat and unfit following christmas/wedding etc.
I'm looking for some sort of ski specific fitness sessions within regions of dorset/hamshire (i travel all over the place hence why the large area!) I know my previous gym ran an 8 week ski fit training programme which I wanted to do this year, however found that it's been replaced with a generic boot camp instead.
I know I could just do my own thing, go to the gym/go swimming/do lots of squats/toning etc biut I'm not good with self motivation and work much better with someone else shouting at me instead. Is anybody aware of anything like this more aimed at wonter sports? That failing I'm probabaly just going to do the boot camp but thought I'd see if anything around bournemouthor surrounding areas specifically first.
Ta!

I take it you are not a hockey person? I find that very good fitness training for skiing. Bournemouth have a very good set of team (talking as a member of there opposition )

It's funny you say that as my OH is a roller goalie in the area and it was the first thing he said to me about doing, particularly the off ice training workouts too. I do know how good it is though if I was going to skate it'd prob be down at the beach or something rather than on rink!

FiFi_Trixibell, No some-thing I have never done or connected to. I asked my Son who is a tennis coach and uses fitness trainers and he suggested that one. Have no idea of price.

FiFi_Trixibell, you could also check out faceplantress, who's a personal trainer in Bournemouth and went on the Pre-Season Bash last year. She was running a ski fitness course last winter, see http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?t=85839 . There's a link to her facebook page at the bottom of her post.
