 Hi I'm Pam Thorburn and I'm a ski cross athlete and this is why CrossFit will help you with your skiing. So CrossFit is a really great way to help you with your strength and that's really important to help with all your key skiing movements. We work a lot in flexibility in CrossFit which will really benefit your skiing because the more flexible you are the less risk of injury you will have. CrossFit is also great in helping you improve your agility. Agility is really important in skiing because it helps you with the changing terrain and it helps you react quicker, you're more nimble on your feet and also helps you push your skiing. CrossFit is amazing for conditioning, it helps you build endurance and it helps you overcome that midweek slump and for me it really helps me push harder and go for longer. CrossFit really helps my mental game because I know I'm physically strong and it just gives me one less thing to worry about when I'm on the hill ready to race and I can be confident in what I'm doing.
