Prompt 2:
Season 80 is on the horizon, rapidly approaching, and all the off season training players did will begin to be tested. Hockey is a game of immense skill and constantly working to fine tune your skills is of the utmost importance to be successful in whatever level of hockey you are playing in. However if you truly want to be elite you must focus on training you body just as much if not more than the sport specific skills. This off season Zeus Storm took the approach of working on his lower body strength so it can better match his upper body strength. In the past couple of seasons, Zeus has felt his legs fatigue quicker than the rest of his body as the season progressed. So, with the call up to the pros coming soon, Zeus spent a lot of time strength training his lower body as well as doing long form cardio to improve his stamina. He did not lift to gain muscle but he lifted to strengthen his existing muscle so it can take more punishment with lesser negative results during the season. We will see how that training works out for him as he gets set to begin his final season in the SMJHL. |
