Daily Training Tip #419

Walking/Running backwards is a low impact, high quality workout, that all athletes should add to their monthly program.


Walking/Running backwards can be incorporated into the sprinting days of your workout or can even be added into your warmup or cooldown. Moving backwards helps build your hamstrings, which are sometimes overlooked by hockey players. Moving backwards also helps build the stabilizing muscles of your knees.
