Improve stamina, strengthen endurance and lower extremitiesStrengthening of the trunk muscles
Improve coordination
Increase of sensorimotor activity
Trinicum training recommendation
1) leg axis training: targeted muscle building of the lower extremities on training equipment
2) Free-space exercises: muscle building/coordination of the lower extremities
3) Sensorimotor training on various unstable surfaces (Bosu-Ball, Slag-Line, cushions)
It is recommended to train at least for a year before getting back on skis. From physiotherapy to everyday life, it can take about three months. To begin with an intense training, like running, can cause more damage; so it is advised to first engage in light sports activities such as strength training or cycling for about six months.
Objectives of the Trinicum Motoric Test:
An increase of the core stability from 40% to 85% is needed. This is important in order to control the lower extremities well and to minimize any disbalances. After training the value of the lower extremities should be again 80%.
