Agent Tesla: Well as I stated in my last interview I do believe that cross-training is important to athletic success. Dave understandably plays both ice hockey and street hockey which is a degree of cross-training I would say, but he has also participated in soccer and lacrosse as I believe both sports have certain skills that would help develop his talents towards his primary sport. Interviewer's second and third questions that have already been partially answered. Agent Tesla: Interestingly enough he does do other positions somewhat in that regard as while he is a center in hockey he plays multiple positions in soccer. Although minimally at goalkeeper he has played a significant amount of defense the reason being is we both agree that getting into that mentality of how to read an offense has helped him learn better how to read and react as offense looking to score. Essentially by knowing how the defense should react in a given situation he is better able to capitalize on opportunities that they might very well present to him, and it has made him especially better at feinting. I tried to talk him into sticking with fencing to help with that more, but after I put thirteen holes in his vital organs in one match he begged me to switch to something else. After that we had him take up lacrosse to get better at handling a stick. Interviewer cocks their head at the fencing story, but continues with the fourth question all the same. Agent Tesla: Well one of the major benefits I have heard of with regards to cross-training is by developing muscles not necessarily integral to the sport in question they can provide some support to the ones used heavily by the sport in question to help prevent non contact injuries. I admit I have not done a deep dive to find out whether that has been proven scientifically, but it has worked for us anecdotally and that is good enough for me. Code: Word Count: 333 |
