help! I'm abusing my quads!
After (half) a day of skiing, my quads are always burning and they're weak
enough that I worry about being able to make turns well. Friends tell me that my thighs really shouldn't be working *that* hard. I'm told to learn to do things like "let the boot support your weight," but even standing still on skis, I can't seem to get into a position where my thighs aren't working to keep myself upright. I suspect that I'm fighting my skis, using too much force and not enough finesse. Any specific suggestions/drills to learn how to make it easier on my legs? It sucks when everyone else is still raring to go and you're not. Especially the morning of the second day. Waste of a lift ticket. -- monique Longmont, CO |
