Daily Training Tip #569

The faster you sprint, the faster you skate. Assisted and resisted sprint training both lead to faster sprint times, but in different ways. Assisted sprint training produces gains in the initial phase of the sprint, while resisted training produces gains in the later phases of the sprint. Both are important to hockey players.


Try the below today. Using bungees to "assist" you in sprinting/skating faster by getting pulled by a partner and using bungees to "resist" you while you are pulling your partner. This is a great way to build speed both at the start and at the end of your sprint. It is also very fun!
