Episode 59: Not Long Now – Getting Fit Ahead of the Upcoming Season
Welcome back to the Alpine Property Podcast with Steve Thomas. As we wrap up the summer season, many listeners are juggling back-to-school routines and last-minute family plans. So, for this week’s episode, we’re shifting gears slightly from property and resorts to focus on preparing yourself for the upcoming 25–26 ski season.
With high-altitude resorts like Tignes in the Espace Killy and Val Thorens in the 3 Valleys opening on 22nd November, followed closely by Alpe d’Huez, Les Deux Alpes, Val d’Isère, Montgenèvre, and Avoriaz on 29th November, now is the perfect time to get ski-season ready.
Whether you’re a property owner, a regular visitor, or planning your first trip, skiing requires more than enthusiasm—it requires preparation. From booking your flights, accommodation, equipment, and passes, to physically preparing your body, getting fit ahead of hitting the slopes is key to avoiding “rubber legs” on day one.
Reflecting on my early ski trips in the 90s around Lake Tahoe, I remember the energy and stamina required to tackle the mountain from dawn till dusk. Today, at 58, keeping up with our boys has made pre-season training even more essential. Modern lifts travel faster and higher, giving skiers more time on the slopes—which is great, but also more demanding on your body.
Skiing uses muscles many of us don’t train regularly, so preparing ahead helps reduce fatigue, improve technique, and minimize injury risks. You don’t need to be an athlete or have a gym membership. Exercises can be done at home and should focus on:
Once at the resort, continue stretching before and after skiing. Always warm up on an easy slope to practice your technique and avoid injuries. Stay hydrated, well-fed, and listen to your body.
With winter approaching, we have exciting new apartments and chalets coming soon. Check the Featured Property section on our website for the latest opportunities.
If you’re interested in arranging a property viewing during your ski holiday, or beginning your journey to owning a second home, we’re happy to help. Visit our website or contact us directly to discuss your goals and preferences.
Until our return in December, stay fit, stay safe, and we’ll see you on the slopes!
