Question

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

Answer 1

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

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

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

I assume Kimmie Meissner skates a similar schedule.

Answer 2

I 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.

Answer 3

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