I also live in SLC and have easy access to ski. I used the gym ME block training as part of my prep for a week long ski tour trip and found it very effective. In general, muscle soreness was not too bad on that trip despite 8+ hours each day on the skis. I was very careful during my prep to not overdo ME by realizing that a day backcountry skiing or resort skiing was like an ME workout so I often skipped the gym workout if those were within 5 days or if I noticed muscular DOMS feelings.
