没雪的夏季怎么提高滑雪技能 – 《Total Skiing》读书笔记
不管大家是多么的恋恋不舍, 滑雪季终究是过去了. 那么怎么在这漫长的夏季为下个雪季的滑雪做哪些准备呢? 最近我读了一本书, Chris Fellows 写的Total Skiing. 这是我读的第一本关于滑雪的书, 觉得很不错就把读书笔记分享各大家, 希望有所帮助. 书中详细解释练习各个动作原因和效果, 看一遍原著肯定会受益更多. 滑雪教练认证考试往往侧重于技能培训, 而这本书是教大家按运动表现金字塔进行恰当的训练,以获得最佳的滑雪表现. 换句话说, 这本书教的是内功, 而不是招式. 而夏季正好是修炼内功的时候. 北美滑雪训练中心使用四层金字塔模型来评估动作的质量. 最底层是功能性动作, 往上依次是体能, 技术和战术. 金字塔的四个层次涉及滑雪表现中因果关系的动态过程. 功能性动作是基础. 如果功能性动作不够扎实, 上面的体能, 技术和战术全部会失去效用. 为找到自身的不对称或局限因素, 作者提出了一套体系对金字塔个层级进行技能评估. 通过评估滑雪者可以知道在哪些方面有改善的空间, 并且列出了相应的训练方法. 我们需要对各层级进行技能评估, 才能制定有针对性的训练计划. 评估也很简单, 自己在家就可以做. 一 功能性动作 1 概念 功能性动作可以分解为稳定性和灵活性两个方面: 稳定性指在外部条件变化和外力的影响下身体保持稳定的能力. 包括平衡,力量和肌肉耐力这几个要素. 滑雪时我们需要让身体一部分固定, 同时伸缩相邻部分, 这样才能在穿行折转中控制速度和保持一致的姿态. 灵活性涵盖关节正常活动度和肌肉柔韧性两方面. 它是正确动作, 伤害预防和流畅滑行的核心. 仅仅有良好的灵活性和核心稳定性并不足以培养精湛的滑雪动作. 滑雪是一种动态平衡. 动态平衡取决于基础支撑. CSIA 把保持动态平衡的动作称为行进中动作, 这是该联盟教学方法的基石….
