how much hours of skating did tara lipinski and kimmie meissner skate a week.

If l remember correctly, Tara mentioned in her book that she did between 3-4 45 minute sessions of ice time Monday through Friday (or Saturday?) & also took off-ice classes like ballet & pilates in between the sessions.

So, if she is skating 3 sessions a day, 5 days a week, that is 11.25 hours a week on the low end

And if she is skating 4 sessions a day, 5 days a week, that is 15 hours a week on the high end.

l assume Kimmie Meissner skates a similar schedule.

l do not know much about Kimmie, but Tara skated A LOT!!! Like 4-5 hours a day, and then she did off ice stuff. But that girl just had talent and a strong work ethic.

Top level skaters usually skate between 3-5 hours a day, plus off ice training.
