I have started with squats, lunges, and calf raises (on stairs) over the last week. I am just using body weight for now. My legs can still feel soreness from this, so I definitely need to keep doing this to get in ski shape.
In other good news, I went inline skating yesterday for the first time in 2 years. It's like riding a bike. It all came back smoothly. I skated for 12 miles over 2 hours. Yes, I am slow. I've found this is probably my best training for skiing. On the walk back home, I used the skates as arm weights and worked on bicep curls, lateral shoulder raises, and triceps.
Pretty soon I plan to start the wall sits once the squats and lunges strengthen my legs more.
How is everyone else doing?
