Optimal Performance Podcast

For this week's episode of the Optimal Performance Podcast, we have Brett Kelly, the strength and conditioning coach for the US Ski & Snowboarding team.  They just got back from winning a couple of gold medals over at the Olympics and Bretty works with free ski half pipe, free ski slope style and ariels.   We get into some of the finer details about strength and conditioning and for athletes like this that are doing such unique movements on skis, (ariels is a crazy flipping inverted sport that looks like this), Brett really knows his stuff. We talk about how to maximize for snow sports, how to gain as much possible strength in the core, exercises involved in that strengthening of the core, and more.  If you like to ski or snow board or just love to dork out on world class strength and conditioning, this is the episode for you. Get an insider look at what happens inside the Olympics.  How do people get there?  What does an Olympic schedule look like?  Find out this and more on this's weeks episode of the
