I'm unsure how spending most of your day in an office and frequently skiing and hiking somehow implies that you should do things differently.

You're not special, follow the same general guidelines anyone else would follow:

>Compound lifts
>Eating properly
>HIIT if you want to stay lean, burst your heart

what the fuck was the point in this post did you have a bad day at work phaggot?

You should train with squats and lunges, they have insanely good carry over to Skiiing and Hiking, I do both.

Cardio is pretty important, obviously, my favorite (and best carry over) is incline hill walking and the stairmaster if your gym has one. Low intensity steady state.

Deadlifts are also really great for your posture, which as you would know are very important for both Hiking and Skiing. I had a buddy of mine nearly completely snap his shit up, while he was getting checked out/Xrayed, the doctor said had he not had such insanely strong lower back/spinal muscles he would have definitely slipped a disc and possible ruined his spine for life.

That same guy also pulls 405 Deadlifts for reps. So I have reason to believe that is no coincidence and having a very strong core could save your life if an accident occured while on the slopes.

Hope this helped.

Great, so what you're telling the OP is that he should do compound lifts and not ignore legs? And some cardio too? So:

>Compound lifts
>HIIT

Pretty much the same thing you'd tell anyone else who didn't care purely about pwr/oly lifting. Groundbreaking shit, really.
