You're moving some serious weights there, but what is really impressive is the workouts that you do AFTER skiing.

It was pretty icy last weekend, and my knees took a beating. I have bad knees anyway, so I don't usually go over 315 on squats and just do high rep sets.

thats some great numbers on the calf portion of your workout.

do you get foot cramps when you do them barefooted?

we go boarding up on silver mountian here in idaho.
im just starting, so i dont go very fast. something about being allergic to
severe pain, and plaster.

Some days I just feel like doing calves barefooted and they feel great, but other days it hurts just thinking about taking my shoes off to do them...

I've been skiing since I was 3, so the thought of crashing and getting hurt never really crosses my mind. I definitely think it's easier to learn while you're young, because it becomes just like walking or running. Once you get used to it though going fast is fun. I always had a hard time getting used to using the front edge while boarding, but once you get comfortable with that you'll be good to go.
