How to get in shape before snowboarding?
in
Every winter I go snowboarding for a weekend. When I wake up the second day, my body is all sore and stiff. Is there anything I can do beforehand to prevent that? Maybe some workouts or something.
Thanks.
Answer:
You do understand that if somebody tells you a workout that will prevent you from becoming sore during the one weekend a year you snowboard, that the workout they recommend will also make you sore?
I hit the gym several times a week and do lots of leg exercises, and I still get sore the first day of any new snowboarding season. How you work your muscles while snowboarding can't really be duplicated in the gym. Its not a bad thing. Being sore is good. Means you worked your muscles.
