Daily Training Tip #904

Just like on the ice, keep your head up while you are training in the gym. Keeping your head up helps keep you chest up, which in turn, keeps your back in the proper position. It all starts with your head!

Daily Training Tip #903

Show up ready to work. Without hard work, you are not going to accomplish as much as you want to.

Daily Training Tip #902

During force production, everything goes through your feet. They are the final piece of the puzzle. Take care of your feet!

Daily Training Tip #901

Hard work always pays off. Maybe not today or next week or next year, but you will ALWAYS be paid back for your hard work. The journey is long, with obstacles and detours in the way. Continue to outwork everyone and climb to the top! Hard work pays off!

Daily Training Tip #900

We've said it many times, play as many different sports as you possibly can. Yes, there is a time to specialize and make a greater commitment to one sport, however, growing up through the youth ranks play multiple sports.

This helps build you into a better athlete. Generally the best athletes are the best hockey players.

Daily Training Tip #899

If you are an athlete, stay off of weight machines and switch to free weights. Machines focus on one specific muscle group. As an athlete, you never use just one muscle group during an athletic event. Free weights are 'sport specific' as they work/develop multi-muscle groups at the same time, some without you even knowing it.

Working Hard and Working Smart!

Daily Training Tip #898

Complete workouts/exercises that engage multiple muscle groups, on different muscle planes, at the same time. This helps build better athleticism.
