If you’re limited on space but still want to get the most explosiveness out of your training, give this limited space explosive hockey workout a try!
1. Jump Lunge Snap Kick – Load up into the lunge, explode up and switch legs as you kick.
Focus: on a soft landing as you load back up into the lunge.
2. Skater Jumps – explode side to side while fully shifting your weight over top of that side.
Focus: on hip, knee, ankle in line while absorbing into the landing.
3. Broad Jumps – Load up through the hips and explode your body forward as far as you can.
Focus: on full hip extension and a soft landing. (If you’re really limited on space you can turn around and jump back the other way instead of continuing forward)
4. 180 Degree Jump Squats – Load up through the hips and explode up as high as you can while rotating 180 degrees.
Focus: on a soft landing. Load and explode in the reverse direction.
5. Power Skip – Drive one knee up while springing off the opposite foot as high as you can. Land soaftly and repeat with the other leg.
Focus: on driving the arms and full hip extension during the movement.
