I never comment on TH-cam. But I felt this is one of the most underrated channel I have encountered ❤ thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge ❤ it has helped me immensely. Eagerly waiting for the next Om of this series
Thank you for putting in all the effort and going into the details of showing these moves and the concept behind them. I am definitely benefiting from your variety of videos and all the information that you are sharing. I wished I was local to you and I would participate in your ski training :D I am 50 and just started learning to ski this year. I have been not physically active at any level or any form for decades. My trainer was surprised at my balancing ability on blue runs. But after my second great training session, I didn't realize how my legs and lower back started cramping!!! I had to skip skiing the last three weeks AND FOUND YOUR CHANNEL AND I'M TRYING TO TRAIN MYSELF FOR A BETTER EXPERIENCE ON THE SLOPE :D Thanks a million!!
That's so amazing to hear! Thank you for following along and I hope I can get you back on the hill soon. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about training. We've built our program so that you can participate from around the world! awilliams@wildr.ca
I think the agility ladder is a great tool for agility and coordination AND some of the moves are considered plyometric. A good way to know if an exercise is plyometric is if you are absorbing and then exerting a large amount of force in a small period of time. So the ladder drills with little jumps might not considered plyometric but of you did hops in the ladder where you were jumping as high as you could it would be considered plyometric :) I am a huge fan of ladder drills for skiing though, great idea!
Of course I didn’t see this one until the season was over. Would you recommend doing these all offseason building from level 1 on up until next season? I’m calling the offseason 5 months. As you progress do you add weights or more reps? Thanks you. My last season was soooo much better physically with your help.
Hello! To start, begin with 50-100 contacts per week, with 20 per workout to start. So if you did 2 exercises, you could do 10 repetitions of each of ylthe 2 exercises, with a lot of rest in between

Do you consider ladder agility foot work to be plyo?

Yes Steve! The earlier you start the more time you have to progress slowly (which is the key to positive adaptation!)
How many times you should do each rep?
