Engage the core

I was reading the book by Weems that he gave out at ESA Stowe. I am amazed at the tone in my abdominal wall from the simple act of engaging my core when I ski. Its improved my posture while skiing and has made for a significant firmness in my abs.

Yea Weems!

I'm sorry Jilly, I forget my head some days

Weems is a D-Team instructor and instructs at ESA events. Lola and Margaritamarcia both had him as a coach at ESA Stowe

IMO Weems is not the most charismatic writer, but he is an inspiring instructor and has some profound effect on those with whom he comes in contact.
If you have a chance to meet him, ski with him, be coached by him, or just give him a hug, its well worth the trip!

I haven't had the chance to meet Weems, but although his general nature on epic is great, it was reading his book that made me really really really want to get coaching from him.

I highly recommend the book to anyone who hasn't read it, and you can even check it out for free from the link SnowHot posted, what a deal!

The format it's written in isn't like any other skiing book I've read. It's very off the wall and broken up into bits so you don't feel like you're reading a technical manual, and the semiunrelated points are often great stories about prespective. It discusses bettering your skiing as well as your approach, and how related the two are, and I couldn't agree more.

I mentioned Weems' use of the Core in my own book, Open Your Heart with Winter Fitness. Everyone should do whatever they can to get a chance to meet Weems. He is simply amazing!
