Ok so i am 14 years old. For the last two years i have ski raced and havent done too badly. But this year i want to have a better fitness base. How often and for how long should i work out. i have been running three days a week, hill bounding for two, and biking for one. what are some other things i can do? i have a couple of friends who have a natural talent for skiing but they dont train and they still beat me.

I want to tone my legs and build my endurance for ski season. Is spinning good for that? Pilates? anything else?
