Gold Member Than_Bogan Posted January 8, 2012 Gold Member Share Posted January 8, 2012 Reading BOS!! In the category of sabotaging my chances: Working on math instead of going to the gym. (Mostly kidding.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Steven_Haines Posted January 8, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 8, 2012 Walking on treadmill, pushups, core work, trying to eat right and cut some lbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller 6balls Posted January 8, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 8, 2012 Working core, trying not to go much over 190 lbs even though it's lifting season so can cut to 185 for ski season. Going to shoot for some 3 day weekends in the spring to get after it early and have more time to fine tune in the summer. I'm not so much shooting for PB but rather more consistently thru 38.

Baller Ed_Obermeier Posted January 8, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 8, 2012 Pretty much the same a 6balls except trying to get real conistant with 32 and finally knock out some 35's (can only dream of 38 at this point). Busting ass in the gym 4 days/week with my regular trainer once a week and my son Junior (also a certified personal trainer) once a week. Seriously improved my diet to cut body fat and build more muscle. I'm pumped, I'm fit, I'm ready (I'm full of it...)! Spring can't get here soon enough!

Baller ral Posted January 9, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 9, 2012 Getting a more solid neck by replacing a soft disc and flexible ligament by a biocermic cage and a titanium plate. Not 100% sure if it is a good strateg, tough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crashman Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 portion control, TRX, playing lots of tennis with wife (this buys me extra ski time for the summer), swimming laps, working extra hours to help pay for a ski boat, watching videos on BOS, watching West Coast Slalom DVD... looking at the new Radar Vice I won in the BOS drawing keeps me motivated.

Baller ThePantsManCan Posted January 9, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 9, 2012 Putting together the plans for building my home at the lake... and clearing that land... and slaving on that land. Debarking 70 Trees for a Log House by hand should get me to oh, say, 4@43 off right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Ilivetoski Posted January 9, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 9, 2012 Think about skiing, analyze some videos of me skiing, be to critical on my technique, go overboard trying to copy Nate Smith's upper body position at the finish of the turn, get lucky on one set.

Baller Dirt Posted January 9, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 9, 2012 Mateo has been spending a bunch of time hugging a tiny furball of a non-manly dog on facebook. I am embarrassed for him. For a PB, I want to get down to Chets at least once this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ski6jones Posted January 9, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 9, 2012 Exercise in the off season, been at it every other day since December vs none last year. Lessons in March, and any opportunity I have after that. Smarter training. Work more on technique early season and try not to chase a PB until later.

Baller jayski Posted January 9, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 9, 2012 Eating very clean, cardio/bodyweight circuits at least 5 mornings a week, 5 days a week of weights, 2 days of yoga, once a month to Florida to keep the flow, downhill skiing when possible to focus on open, patient flowing turns, mental focus (imagery) every night, positive ability focus and a sprinkle of other physical activities here and there...

Baller Razorskier1 Posted January 10, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 10, 2012 Having neck surgery. Perhaps then I can go a full season without having significant pain, numbness and loss of strength in one or both of my arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Razorskier1 Posted January 11, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 11, 2012 Having the old roto-rooter job done on the right side at c5-6 and the left side at c6-7 on January 20th. They go in from the back and basically take out enough bone from the joint space so the nerve can exit the spine wihtout being pinched. Surgeon says I won't like him much for about 3 weeks, but then should feel lots better. Just saw my regular doc today for the pre-op physical. He asks "so did you ask him about restrictions on things like skiing?". My reply, "hell no!" It isn't like I'd be smart enough to listen anyway!

Baller Razorskier1 Posted January 11, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 11, 2012 I will, of course, have to give up workouts for a few weeks. Probably a good thing. I ended the ski season at 183 lbs (6ft tall) and after being in the gym since early November, I am now 198 lbs. While I am a lot stronger, I don't like starting the season weighing 200 lbs -- too much weight to drag around behind an inboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member Than_Bogan Posted January 11, 2012 Gold Member Share Posted January 11, 2012 Geez mon. I could lift every weight in the room for the entire winter and I couldn't get anywhere near to 198. Oh, and I'm 2 inches taller... Good to know that different body types can work in this sport! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Razorskier1 Posted January 12, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 12, 2012 Rico -- how do you like the go pro setup on the windshield? I need to think about a new video solution this year that doesn't require a passenger trying to follow me from ball to ball with the camera from the boat.

Baller 6balls Posted January 12, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 12, 2012 Than, I can get you to 198 lbs of freakish muscle...but you're not going to enjoy it! Furthermore...it prob does nothing for better skiing so my advice is don't bother. The last few years I have begun to understand that lighter and pretty strong is better than heavier and really strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
