	As we all know, it is a real challenge to get to the gym on a regular basis during the hockey season. When you find yourself cramped for time, here’s an exercise that you can easily incorporate into your practice routine that will help you to keep your strength up. Instructions Find a teammate that will be your partner. (This is not completely necessary but can help to motivate you.) The exercise is push-ups. Start with a number that you are comfortable with. It could be 10 push-ups or 20, as long as it’s obtainable. Start by doing the number of push-ups that you’ve chosen. If it’s 10, do 10. If it’s 15, then do 15. Once you’ve completed your push-ups, it’s your turn to rest while your partner does theirs. Work your way down to zero. i.e. 15,14,13,12, etc. If you try to commit to doing this twice a week, it will really help you to keep your strength up, and you’ll actually see your strength increase as the number of push-ups that you are capable of doing increases.
