Lower-Leg Strength Circuit
In skiing and snowboarding, your ankles take a beating. The pain and soreness you feel are due to tight Achilles tendons and weak calves. So work on ankle mobility and increasing your lower-leg strength.
TRY THIS: Holding medium-weight dumbbells at your sides, step forward, pushing through the ball of your foot to make yourself tall for about 20 strides (1). Put the weights down and immediately grab a rope, jumping quickly from the calves, for 30 seconds (2). Repeat the series three times.
