Today FasterSkier launched a new blog featuring training tips from high-level coaches around the country.
Check it out at http://blogs.fasterskier.com/trainingtips/.
Throughout the summer, we’ll have frequent posts on all facets of training, so check back often. If you have an idea for a training tip, or have a coach who you think could come up with some good suggestions, let us know at info@fasterskier.com.
To start out, we’re offering three sets of tips from some college coaches.
First, Middlebury College’s Andrew Gardner writes about setting goals for summer training.
