Active Health: Ski Fit Program

Are you planning to hit the slopes this winter?

Don’t let injury spoil your holiday!

Sustaining an injury on the slopes can be very serious, costly and restrict your ability to ski or work. Pre-season conditioning for snow sports is essential, not only to reduce risk of injury but also to enhance performance. When on holidays at the slopes, many people will complete 3-6 hours of continuous exercise every day for up to two weeks. Without adequate fitness, strength and balance, there is a higher risk of injury and muscle soreness during a snow trip.

The Ski Fit Program at Active Health aims to individually target areas of muscle weakness, instability and poor biomechanics. The 6 week program will include an initial assessment on AXIT followed by weekly sessions to ensure maximum fitness and confidence prior to the start of snow season.
