Package Ultimate All-Terrain Backcountry Package
Juggling gear sucks, it's a fact. The Ultimate All-Terrain Backcountry Package frees you up from gear swapping with a single set of gear that tackles everything from the flats to the powder covered downhills. Outtabounds Crown skis have the shape to pull telemark turns on downhills and the waxless kick to take you across the flats and uphills that seperate you from your destination. 3-pin cable bindings let you free heel with minimal resistance for flats and extra forward flex for the downhills. The Sierra 75 is a retrofit of Alpina's popular, comfortable BC 1550 boot with a 3-pin toe and a notch in the back for cable bindings. The world is your oyster with the Ultimate All-Terrain Backcountry Package.

Training Tips
Heart monitors are useful for knowing when you are in the right zone for your training efforts. If you understand what your maximum heart rate is, you can set up your monitor to beep at you when you exceed the high or low range of your heart rate for the type of workout you are doing.
Cross training gives your body a chance to recover while still exercising. If yesterday has a hard run day up and down hills, then today's bicycle ride gives your aching knees a well deserved break.
Anaeroic threshold is when lactic acid starts to build up in your body as your muscles are not getting the oxygen they require. This threshold is typically expressed as a percentage of your VO2 max - the amount of oxygen per kilogram of weight that a person can use in converting fuel to energy. Elite athletes threshold might be as high as 90% of VO2 max.
Efficient running position allows you to run farther and faster. Keep the heel raise to a minimum, relax your upper body and hands, keep your upper body poised and quiet.
