I love to bike. I am athletic. My least favorite food is carrots. My hair is plain brown. I wear contacts. I have never been skiing. I have signed up to go skiing next week. I am worried about getting injured while skiing. I am dating someone.
I'm afraid of heights. I like going to clubs. My hair is red. I love skiing competitively. I broke my arm skiing once. I haven't went skiing in a while. I am working out to strengthen my body. I started skiing at 6.  I started ski competitions at 7. Everyone in my family likes to ski.  My dad was a ski coach.
How long did it take for you to feel confident skiing?  Because I started skiing as a kid, it didn't take too long. When you are that young, I guess falling down doesn't seem all that scary. Are you going to be taught by someone at the slopes? Yes! I will have an instructor the whole time. I've never skiied before so I will need the boost of encouragement. Any tips? Don't be afraid to fall down! Otherwise you will tense up, which is never good for learning new motions. Gotcha! I will practice allowing myself to fall some more. Any exercise ideas you've been trying out that help with body stregnth? For skiing, I think core muscles are super important. So I've been doing a lot of planks and hollow crunches. Squats and lunges for those leg muscles too! Do you think my biking helps my form at all for skiing? Really hoping so since i spend so much time on it.  It's a bit of a different motion, but I think having strong legs will be perfect for learning how to ski. I have no worries for you. Thanks for the encouragment! Have you gone out and had some fun outside of exercising? Yep! I've been going out to clubs on weekends to destress. You're very welcome - I hope you have fun on your ski trip. That sounds like a great way to let loose- maybe I should do that during my trip. Thanks! Haha definitely! And it's a great way to make new friends too.
