Cross-Country Ski to improve you performance as an Endurance Athlete. As a teenager alot of triathlon usto ski as a cross training activity to improve or maintain the hard word on the bike and run they have done in the warm season. Personally money was the issue as the sport is not always the cheapest and also because I was training full time as part of a high performance swim team and also full time in a triathlon club. Therefore I started doing x-country ski later in my life. And now I can say without the shadow of a dougt, that it help, and it does more then I use to think. Skate ski help you to find and maintain a balance as you almost never move on 2 legs, making you shift you balance from one side to another constantly. You use the main muscle that you use in running and cycling and even more. When you start you will think that you have found some muscle never used before. It also work very hard on your cardio while doing completely different things that your doing daily. Finally the scenery is always great.
