Try this variation of the traditional wall sit to train the quads for skiing and biking. You'll also be enhancing your balance and stabilization.

* Lean against a wall with your feet hip-width apart and about 12 inches away from the wall.

* Slide your back down the wall, bending your knees until your thighs are parallel to the floor.

* Hold for 15 seconds.

* Lift your left foot just off the floor to put all the work on the right leg. Hold for 5 seconds.

* Place the left foot down and lift the right foot to work the other leg for 5 seconds.

* Put the right foot down and slide back up to a standing position.

* Try to hold the position for a few seconds longer each time you perform the exercise.
