Heart hammering, sweat dripping into your eyes, you focus on the scoreclock: 3 – 3. With just over a minute left to go in the championship game, you know it’s do or die. The gate opens. As you spring from the gate, you begin your last shift in regulation. Every muscle in your body is ready. It all comes down to this. Their defenseman wheels the puck from behind the net. You force him to the corner. Outmuscling him, you strip him of the puck and drive hard to the net. The defenseman is draped all over you. You stagger as he bears down on you. Disoriented, you quickly recover and explode towards the net. Without breaking stride, you release your shot. As the goaltender sprawls, you focus on the puck in the back of the net. The crowd’s cheers are deafening. You’ve scored the game winner!
Does your training prepare you for this? Saskpro CrossFit can. Here’s how:
Endurance, stamina, strength, power, speed, flexibility, agility, accuracy, balance, and coordination: These are the elements that can set you apart from the rest. But you’re only as good as your weakest link. You have to incorporate each of these components into your training. Saskpro CrossFit Sports Conditioning can make it happen:
• Skating treadmill sessions
• Off-ice hockey skill development
• CrossFit training
• Nutritional counselling
