Daily Training Tip #131

Hip Flexors are often under developed in hockey players. Make sure you train your hip flexors as they are a crucial part of your skating stride.

Perform exercises that bring your knees up towards your chest. For instance, if you are performing box jump, squat down to parrallel to the ground. Explode up into the air. As soon as your feet leave the groud, pull your knees up towards your chest. Land on the box with your feet while your knees are tuck up towards your chest. This is an exercise that athletes of all ages can perform and see benefits from.
