This month marks the transition from the general preparation phase and into the specific preparation phase part I.
This transition means progressing your aerobic base and participating in strength development and strength endurance.
We have an agreed understanding of how to train the cardiovascular system for skiers.
Aerobic energy capacity accounts for nearly half (46%) of the total energy used for skiing.
This typically happens when exercising at a continuous, steady state.
grab the previous article to view that table.
While building your aerobic base is great, lets not forget about what strengthening looks like during this phase.
The strengthening has progressed from calisthenics in June to strength development and strength endurance.
The parameters for the exercises shift as well.
