Ice Hockey

Put on a helmet and protective gear, then check your skate blades and laces. Loosen your hips, knees, and ankles before stepping onto the ice.

Start by skating lightly to get used to the ice. Once you are warm, move on to puck handling and passing.

Skate slowly and ease your speed as you finish. Let your breathing settle, then check your workout duration.

Skating and short sprints work your cardiovascular system and whole body. Push off the ice with your legs and use your torso to maintain balance.

Do not raise or swing your stick above shoulder height. Never push a player who has their back to you near the boards.

Breathe naturally instead of holding your breath during short sprints. Settle your breathing while resting between shifts.

Record the time spent playing ice hockey. Do not enter goals, shot counts, or distance.
