It’s 2023 knees can go over your toes. It’s about ankle and hip mobility, ski racers should be able to get into this position as it is a demonstration of good dorsiflexion, a must for the sport

So during your season when your skiing and Raceing how often do you lift how many sets per day ?

I suggest working out barefoot and in general, using footwear that is not deforming/constricting the foot/toes outside of skiing. Thanks for the video.

I agree with you. Would minimalist shoes like Xero be what you are referring to for footwear?

[@aps1s]

@@tonybrown8378 bro the best way to work out for skiing is to use ski boots.

That's a stiff leg deadlift. An RDL also starts at the top, but there is knee bend and hips move back. You could call it a stiff leg RDL because it starts at the top.

Would be cool to know what kind of skiing we’re talking about…

Omg...you don't stretch before you squat and deadlift. Your squat is way too low. Just go to 90 degrees. The bar should be across your blades...your going to hurt your neck and the position is not over your quads..plus add Romantan Deadlifts for hamstrings, back. Good luck!
