I have  found that  doing exercises to build up  sport-specific  muscles
*extremely* boring (especially the "hop over this 10 times" variety).  I
feel  the  most  "fun"  way  to  develop   muscles   for  a   particular
not-in-season-sport  is to become  involved in a sport  (either  team or
individual)  in which the  muscles  you want to develop are used.  As as
example, I find that basketabll is a good all-around muscle  conditioner
(although not highly aerobic in the classical sense). Bicycling is another
sport that will help strengthen the skiing muscles in the legs.

Another  alternative  is exercise  classes,  especially  ones with tough
floor  exercises.  It's always better  suffering  with a group of people
than by yourself.
