How to Keep Skiing Fit

When you're on vacation or traveling, it can be hard to find time to exercise and to keep your legs ski-fit.

There are many other ways to keep fit, including hotel fitness classes and centers, walking, running, and other outdoor activities. Here's more on keeping ski fit while you're on the road.
