A little homework for my AAA team.

Flexibility exercise for hockey playersIf you look at the following exercises and don’t know what to make of them, don’t worry.  I have posted this for a AAA Minor Bantam team that I work with – they have a little tendency to lose their homework so I posted it here so they could get at it.  The idea is to give them a workout they could do at home in about 15 minutes that would improve their strength, stability and mobility.

  1. Dumbbell Alternate Reverse Lunge – 3×10 each
  2. 3 Stop Push Up – bottom – full – top – 3×3 each
  3. F.I. Split Squat Jump & Hold – 3x 6 cycles of (3 jumps + 5s hold)
  4. Side Plank & Rotate – 2x(3×5 reps with a 5 second hold on each side)
  5. 1/2 Kneeling Hip Flexor + Quad Stretch – 2x 30s each side
  6. Side Lying Clamshell – 2x 15 on each side
  7. Pigeon Stretch – 2x 30s each side

Please do this workout three times per week on non-consecutive days.
Merry Christmas!
Cheers,
Maria
