But if you want to keep stacking those days all season long, you've got to take care of your body once the ski boots come off. In the video below, Emily fr om Outdoor Adventure Training walks through a simple, 10-minute après ski stretch routine she filmed after a full day at Panorama Mountain Resort up in British Columbia. It's quick, it's effective, and it targets exactly what skiing beats up the most: hips, hamstrings, back, and feet.

Multi-day ski trips, whether you're hitting two, three, four, or more days in a row on the slopes, are a ton of fun, but people who aren't used to skiing multiple days in a row start to get pretty sore pretty quick. This 10 minute recovery stretch routine from Outdoor Adventure Training is a great way to unwind and support recovery after a long day on the slopes, and all you need is a yoga mat and a small space.

It's important to remember that the splits are just a shape. We don't want to take them too seriously. It's okay if the shape takes a long time or if it never works for you.
