Ep. 5 June Training Hacks

In this episode of Race Ready, Andy and Brian dive into their top June training tips for skiers and biathletes, breaking down how to structure early-summer training for maximum long-term gains. From why May is best used as a soft ramp-up to the importance of “back-to-basics” technique work, they outline how athletes of all levels can set the tone for a successful season. You’ll hear how elite teams are using the post-spring window to reinforce foundational skills—like base shooting, ski walking, and technique-specific strength—before ramping up the intensity.

The duo also discuss how to progress your ski-specific interval training in June without burning out too soon. Andy shares his go-to session using one-pole roller ski intervals, and Brian breaks down the underrated power of no-pole skiing. They explore how neuromuscular adaptations require time, and why dialing in movement patterns now pays dividends by late summer. If you’re wondering when to start speed work, how to layer in cross-training like bounding, or why zone discipline becomes critical in June, this episode covers it all.

Finally, the conversation turns to roller ski safety, technique progression, and racing opportunities—including how roller ski events like Blink and USBA Summer Nationals build race-day sharpness and ski aggression. Whether you’re a junior, master, or elite skier, this episode is full of actionable advice to fine-tune your training, improve technique, and stay healthy on the road. Tune in and level up your summer training game.
