So, last year was a bit of a fail on my part. I don't think I did much in the way of anything to get fit but I managed.
Must try harder. I'm currently doing yoga - is that any good for skiing?

I am going to start getting fit again now - I didn't like the feeling of my legs hurting in Tignes. I reckon it takes me about 3 months to get fit when I'm in a bad state, like now.
I have found my Ingham's get fit to ski book. I just need to start doing all those star jumps and squats and running etc. again. Last year I got brilliantly fit and didn't ache at all after ski-ing all day.

I haven't done much yoga, but am trying desperately to get fitter for this years skiing. My legs just couldn't stand up to it by the end of the day last year as I've been pretty inactive sports wise for years now. Been doing a bit of everything to keep variety - running, cycling, rowing and various other small bits and pieces. I need to lose a lot of weight too though, hence the aerobic theme. God I hope it works! :lol:
I wish I could meet the person who first decided to strap 2 planks to their feet and throw themselves down a mountain

AllyG out of curiosity, what does it say in your Inghams book? I'm trying to work out some structure so I have goals and don't just give up when I get bored/tired!

Eat less and more exercise leads to weight loss ...... I think
