In this episode the Ski Moms host Shannon Smith, Founder of Range Fitness. Range Fitness has a variety of offerings from one-on-one coaching to a group training subscription program focused on ski season prep. We were excited to learn about Shannon’s Range Snowfit program, a 4-week ski-specific program that’s perfect for busy ski moms.

We learn about Shannon’s background and love of skiing, which started at age 3 in Whistler, BC. Shannon walks us through her educational background that includes a Bachelor's in Kinesiology and certifications in Exercise Physiology and Strength & Conditioning.

Shannon gives us her recommendations for how to best prepare for a happy and healthy ski season.

• Aim for 2-5 workouts per week (2 strength, 1 aerobic, 1 recovery, 1 core/agility)
• Workouts can be done at home with minimal equipment
• Focus on hip strength and mobility for better ski position
• Consistency is key - "Don't get ready, stay ready"

Shannon shares some great tips for new moms getting back on the slopes:

• Focus on rebuilding hip/glute strength
• Take your time progressing back to your previous level
• Don't feel pressured to get out skiing right away
