Snowboarding is an extremely physically demanding sport. The outward image many people have of snowboarders is the teenager who lounges around the house eating potato chips and drinking mountain dew. It's actually a sport that requires careful training of very specific muscles and near constant attention. Conditioning is not necessarily required to be a great snowboarder, but for those planning on boarding often it's vital to keep certain parts of the body in top condition.
However, as you might have guessed, you don't need to be attached to a gym to keep in shape on the mountain. These simple exercises will help you out with staying fit and having fun on the mountain.
