Written task, option 2

Rodrigo Banes trains for skating in various old school ways, deeply inspired, and often coached by, his father. It involves a combination of heavy, full depth squats to build leg muscles and overall power, lunges and jump training to build explosiveness, and chasing a chicken around a wintry yard because he saw it in a Rocky movie and it seemed like a good idea. For endurance he enjoys jogging, as a great way to take in the scenery around Kelowna, and get some fresh air. 

When his father is in town, or he feels like he underperformed during a game, he gets into his custom-made altitude chamber and rides a stationary bike up Mount Everest until he can't breathe. The price to be great is high, but he values his skating abilities and plans ot get even faster during the offseason as he prepares to join his father's team in Montreal.
