How a car boot sale launched skiing star's career
- Skiing is a great workout - you can burn up to 500 calories an hour.
- Your knees take on the weight of your body when you turn downhill, strengthening your bones and joints.
- As you go down the slope, your body is in a squat position, which improves your balance and builds your stomach and leg muscles.
Find your local centre in England, , external Wales, external or Scotland, external to get yourself on the slopes.
