Salomon Ellipse 10.0 Alpine Ski Boot

Salomon Ellipse 10.0 Alpine Ski Boot - Women's

The Salomon Ellipse 10.0 Women's Alpine Ski Boot creates an innovative blend of comfort and performance—with a pronounced preference for the comfort side of the equation. The Ellipse boots, a new line for Salomon, take modern soft boot technology and apply it to a boot that doesn't go so extreme as to incorporate fabric into the outer shell. The stiffer molded frame provides excellent lateral support for performance skiing on the entire mountain, while strategically-placed soft plastics give you a cushy flex and dream-like comfort all day long. The Women's Ellipse 10.0 has a lower cuff height and dimensions built to fit the female foot. The Ellipse 10.0 is incredibly easy to take on and off—there's a pull handle for one-handed entry, and the liner features Salomon's Quicklace—an internal lacing system allowing you to snug it down as tight as you want. The three-buckle system provides easy fit adjustment, and you're ready to tackle anything the mountain can throw your way.

Training Tips

For runners looking to get the maximum benefit from hill training, as you sprint to the top of the hill have your arms pumping faster and faster. Once you get to the top, continue on increasing your speed as much as possible.

After each interval, take your pulse rate by counting the number of beats at your wrist or neck for 15 seconds. Multiply that result by four to get your beats per minute. Your next interval should start before your heart rate is less than 60% of your maximum.

The four components of good fitness include flexibility, muscular endurance, muscular strength, and cardiorespiratory endurance. For optimum health, include at least two of these groups in three workouts per week.

Your fitness level will improve by overloading, working your body hard enough to stimulate the body, progression, increasing the frequency, intensity, and duration of exercise over time, and regularity, working out frequently, at least three times a week.
