PRE-SEASON SKI CONDITIONING

Pre-Season Ski Conditioning, Thursdays, October 15 — November 19, 10:30-11:30 am.
Trout Creek Recreation Center at Tahoe Donner
Instructor: Karen Brunnings

Karen has been an instructor at Trout Creek for several years and is highly energetic and well recommended. Her format will be similar to the classes given by Courtney the last two seasons. Courtney recommended her specifically for our group.

Cost: Please note you are with the Ski Club when you enter the recreation center. The fee varies as a function of your status. For those without TD amenity cards, the fee is $10. Those with amenity cards, it is $6. No fee is assessed for those who have paid for unlimited exercise classes.

Set to music, this class combines exercises needed to strengthen the core (trunk) and large leg muscles (quadriceps, hamstrings, gluteal muscles and hip flexors). Exercises will use a combination of steps, dumbbells, balls, balance cushions, and body weight. Some exercises will be dynamic since skiing is dynamic (in other words, your heart will work out too!). Upper body pushing and pulling exercises will also be included for a total body workout. Class includes a 10-minute dynamic warm-up, including a full-body stretch, and a soothing cool-down stretch to lengthen muscles and help minimize muscle soreness.

Please wear exercise attire and shoes. If you have certain medical conditions that might limit your ability to exercise (ie heart conditions, circulatory problems, elevated blood pressure, joint issues/replacements, medications you are taking, etc.) contact Karen Brunnings at the Trout Creek Rec Center.
