winter training

i have a personal preference to training on ice… most definitely increases stability and balance. there are several great leg exercises where you draw alternating circles with your feet simultaneously, using the “slipperiness” as a form of resistance training utilizing the weight of the body pressing against the ice with the soles of the feet… i am not quite sure if i can say it anymore confusing thatn that…

i also like toying with start/stop and torque inertia while training on ice… carrying firewood out of the snowy woods is also a great form of training - pulling a sled full of logs, loading the truck and hand splitting all winter long!!! YEAH BABY!!!

dodging snowballs… :wink:
