Daily Training Tip #610

Recently read an article “Improving Endurance through Power Training.” While this article was geared towards endurance runners, it hold very true for hockey players as well. I hate hearing a hockey player tell me their coach :told them to go for a long slow run or a long slow bike ride because they look fatigued during the 3rd period. ” This is the exact opposite approach. Hockey players need to do explosive, power training, which is anaerobic in nature. However, if done properly, all anaerobic training becomes aerobic after an extended period of time. So hockey players, get off of the bike and into the gym!
