WINTER CONDITIONING 2023
October 30 - December 8
a full body functional training program for winter adventurers
stronger all season.
SEEK’s Winter Conditioning program is designed specifically for winter adventurers — seasoned athletes and novice riders alike. With a combination of strength training, cardiovascular conditioning, functional mobility and stability work, everyone who completes this training will become a stronger and more able bodied skier/rider. Just like the gear you buy, this is an investment that improves the quality of every day you spend in the mountains.
With brand NEW trainings designed for this 2023 season, we are excited to challenge new and returning athletes. This year we are leveling up every workout, adding unique mobility training techniques, and will be sharing some optional self-led outdoor workouts for you to add to your weekly training. We are stoked to push you into the 2023-2024 winter season!
This is an in-person 5 week training series. There will be a one week break mid-series for the Thanksgiving holiday week.
How we train
STRENGTH
Functional training to build strength and power for winter sports. Using free weights, kettlebells, bosu balls, TRX straps, and resistance bands, this portion of your training will focus on building strength through both static and dynamic movements. Unique mobility work will also be included in these 60 minute training sessions in order to build functional strength and healthy range of motion. You will do two 60 minute strength training sessions each week. Weeks build progressively to challenge your functional capacity.
Endurance
Focused cardiovascular training to improve your fitness and endurance. Using our indoor cycling bikes and power meters, we will test your power and endurance, and then improve these metrics through endurance and power drills. This portion of your training will improve your cardiovascular performance, as well as your lower body strength and power, preparing you for long ascents and top to bottom rippers. You will do one 45 minute endurance training session each week (with the opportunity for two sessions for those who opt in).
RECOVERY
Training hard only works when you recover well. Taking care of your body is non-negotiable when in a series like this. Stretching, breathwork, and the many other benefits of YOGA at SEEK are going to help build stability, balance, healthy movement patterns, and help prevent injury. Your registration for Winter Conditioning includes an additional 10 yoga classes. We encourage you to take 2 classes each week. These passes expire at the end of the series, so use this great resource to help your hard working body feel good!

FAQ's
Is this appropriate for all levels?
We are here to train you to be the best athlete you can be and will include customizations and modifications to meet and challenge you. However, we recommend that you have some strength training knowledge/experience prior to participating. This is a challenging series.
How do I maintain my fitness after training?
Join us for our regular Strength and Conditioning and Cycle classes at SEEK throughout the year to maintain your strength and fitness.
Can I skip some of the components?
If you need to, yes, but we recommend you try your best to attend all classes in your training group. The strength and endurance classes are progressive, meaning each week builds on the week before it, so if you miss a week you may miss out on some form and technique that we built in the prior week. Of course, we understand that illness and other issues can arise, and we will do our best to make sure you are up to speed if the circumstances necessitate it.
Can I modify my schedule
Unfortunately we cannot customize schedules beyond the above Group A, B, and C schedules.
