Daily Training Tip #562

Train outside of the box!

Daily Training Tip #560
If you are trying to catch the person in front of you (or trying to pull farther away from the person behind you) you can not afford to to skip a workout or a practice.
If a coach told you "it is optional" you better take the option of the showing up and working hard. That is the only way you can catch up and bypass.
No matter how long you play the game of hockey, it is going to be too short. You can't afford to miss things!
