Mountain Climbers
Why? Yes, why these dreaded things? Because they will get you into shape faster than scary clowns
chasing you down the street on a 5K run. They are a great abdominal workout and also fantastic cardio-
conditioning which is key on the slopes.
How? Assume the plank position. Engage core, ready, set, run! Yes run, bend one knee and bring the knee
up to the chest and touch the ground with that foot, then jump and switch, that's one rep. If this ain't your
first rodeo, go ahead and bring that foot all the way up on the outside of the arm so it's even with your
hand and then jump and switch. Sets and Reps: 3 sets of 10-20 Reps, no stopping!
Now, put your copy of LOCALadk down and do this thing so you too can be a superstar on the hill and in
life - this last statement comes with no guarantee! Do one round of all four (4) exercises and then repeat
it for a total of three (3) sets. Stay safe out there my friends, and see you on the hill!
