Daily Training Tip #333

During this time of your winter training season, make sure you have perfect form on all of your exercises. This time of the season, you on-ice performance takes first priority. You in-gym performance has to take a back seat, but still a crucial back seat. Continue to work, just work injury free!

Kierra has a great story! She switched positions to goalie two years ago and has paid one heck of a price working on her improvements. She attends MHC on a regular basis. Her and her father, help clean up the grounds of MHC before camp starts. They have quickly become part of the MHC family!

Lot's of MHC Campers and MHC Staff on this team.

Nice to see Josh Archibald make his commitment to the University of Nebraska-Omaha. http://www.mnhockeyhub.com/news_article/show/77121?referrer_id=32760
Josh is realizing the price he has to make to play this game. UN-O is getting a great player and an even better person when Josh steps on campus this fall.

Daily Training Tip #330

Never take a day off from training your core.

Your core is a non-fatiguing area which means it can be trained on a regular daily basis. The better conditioned your core is, the better your performance is!
