Hey guys, I started playing hockey when I was about 5 and stopped around 18. The worst move I've made all my life. Always regreted it.
Now I'm 30 and my brother in law (29) plays in a amateur league and asked me to join next year. I went to see them play a few times this year and I was quite impressed. No checking, but a tough game, relatively fast and I witnessed some pretty nice plays.
But before I can join them I need some training. I stopped smoking 4 years ago and my cardio is getting pretty good now, but I need to train specifically for hockey, especially stuff I could do even in the summer time. Could tips, web links, books, personnal experience...
I have some training equipment at home that I use a few times a week, but do any of you guys know training techniques you use(d) and know are effective (legs, wrist, arms, ...)? And how about puck handling and power skating?
Thanks for helping an elderly get back in competition!! lol
