Been ages since I've been ski-ing, years in fact. But now that I'm Germany based and have friends living in Switzerland its looking like a possibility.
Obviously things like squats would help. But what other exercises would be great to train up for some snow time?

Never look back with regrets and think "what if" for that way madness lies. There are those that will envy you and try and undermine you. They are not worth your time.

Doing cardio on a cross trainer sounds too obvious... does it?

If you're not sure if you're getting quality sleep or not, this is your standard: You should always wake up under a teepee. If you don't have a boner so solid you have to do a handstand to take a morning piss, your Testosterone levels are probably low.

What are car park lunges? Other than the possibility of doing lunges for the length of a carpark
