What are some of the better programs everyone uses to workout? If you can just say what exercises you do, how many sets or just what you do in a typical week.

Summer's here and there is no better time to get ready for next season than now.

Dude whatever you want to put down would really help. What kind of things do you do in your program?

start with a good warm-up...like jogging for 5 minutes.....then i do push-ups and sit ups....(doesnt matter how many just to lossent your body up...) then stretch your whole body from head to toe. i use the dumb-bell weights alot and other machines but usually just go and check the place u r going to work out at first and then begin using the machines but at low weight/resistance....then when u get more comfortable, crank the weight up: not to much or you will strain your body and will hurt.....

MAKE SURE YOU DO A REALLY GOOD STRECH AFTERWARDS OF YOUR WHOLE BODY OR ELSE U WILL HURT BUG TIME THE NEXT DAY!!!!

I run like 1.5 miles in 15 minues on a treadmill. I like spreading it out over 15 minutes because it works my endurance and just gets me more fit. Maybe it doesn't but I just like to stretch it out rather than do it in 6 mintues.



And that's all she wrote.

if you're new or don't know what you're doing, buy arnold's encyclopedia of bodybuilding.

it gives you good basic information, and pictures and descriptions of the proper way to do pretty much every type of lift out there.

You can follow the routines if you want, but you've gotta take some of them with a grain of salt, since arnold is obviously abnormally more responsive to training, and used to take steroids.

But if you follow is beginner's routine (which is pretty much what he recommends for the first like 3 years of lifting), and just do the sets/reps to your own max, you'll get pretty strong.

do a lot of balance excercizes- these will help your spins, sense of place in the air, and recovery in landings. one thing to do is stand on one leg and close your eyes and basically try and squat very slowly with your eyes closed. this works both legs really well and balance.

also, try standing on soccer/basketball for as long as you can and also squat on those- you get the idea. balance is key to any sport especially skiing.

bottom line is drink at least 80oz. of water a day and run at least 2 miles 3 times a week and do 15 mins of lifting 3 times a week, you can also do a little extra with leg presses and shit for those big calves for big 1440s

Check it out an awesome excercise for skiers to do is squats, but put your feet like 6 inches apart instead of shoulder width. Oh yeah do it on a smith machine so you don't fall over and put your feet in front of you so when you squat it looks like your sitting in a chair

Just join cross country. And lift 2x the weights they tell you to. Then you'll be hiking the pipe like a thug.
