Ski Erg Technique

We see some common faults when using the Ski Erg, please read below. Cleaning these up with result in more efficient skiing!

  • Fault: heels are off the platform. Fix: both feet should be entirely on the platform to drive more power.
  • Fault: improper sequencing of movements and too much of a hinge. Fix: initiate the power with your arms, then abs (think hollow body) and then bend your knees. Don’t simply bend over.
  • Fault: disengagement of the arms/lats. Fix: keep arms slightly bent

    the entire time. Don’t lose tension at the top or bottom of pull, then have to reengage each pull.

  • Fault: Scooping the handles behind you. Fix: Arms should end by your thighs. Don’t burn out your triceps and waste motion with too long of a

    pull.
