About Junior Fall Training
The training ramps up in intensity just as the school year starts up in Vermont. It’s Fall Training!
You’ve had an incredible summer of fun workouts, long adventures in the mountains and a base of fitness and speed. Now it’s time to take that work to the next level and prepare for the season ahead with harder sessions, continued volume and race simulations. After the sunny and warm bliss of summer, the harder workouts always coincide with darker and colder days…can you think of a better way to challenge yourself for the winter ahead?
THE RANGE Is scheduled for our group on Thursday evenings from 4-6:30pm. For skiers doing any fall programming, this is the best/preferred training day to be at!
