This week, Michael welcomes back Josh Blencowe from MD Health to explore a biomechanical perspective on skiing, as well as nutrition and hydration tips to help you maximise your enjoyment from your trip.
Skiing and snowboarding work the major muscle groups of the lower body - but it’s easy to overlook the fine control muscles around the joints that are also tested. You need to work on a combination of these areas to get your body ready.
Like most activities discussed on the Confident Body podcast, it pays to plan ahead to ensure your body is best prepared to handle the different stresses your ski trip will place on it. Giving your health practitioner as much notice as possible is a simple way to build up so you're ready to give the trip your best.
Let’s get confident!
