Topic description

Light lunge, lean your body forwards and support yourself with your hands on the wall. Bend the front leg, stretch the back leg and place both feet flat on the floor (press the heel of the back foot against the floor). The stretch can be intensified by increasing the amount of support. Push your hips and front knee forwards in a rocking motion while continuing to press your back heel firmly against the floor to support the dynamic stretch. Then switch legs.

Variant:
The exercise can also be performed without a wall by placing both feet flat on the floor in a stepping position and tilting the upper body slightly forwards.

Light lunge in front of a wall with straight legs, lift the toe of the front foot and press it against the wall while pressing the heel into the floor (the leg remains straight). The closer the heel is to the wall, the more intense the stretch. Tilt the upper body forwards to support the dynamic stretching. Then switch legs.

Topic description

Two players stand facing each other (vis-à-vis) a few metres apart. Player A passes the first puck to Player B. Player B receives the puck and sets it slightly to one side. Player A passes the second puck to Player B, who plays it straight back. Player A now receives this puck, moves it slightly to one side, and then plays the next pass straight back. The exercise continues in this way without interruption. After a while, switch from the forehand to the backhand side, or incorporate flip passes.

Topic description

Three (or four) players position themselves around the face-off circle and attempt to keep possession of the puck through quick and precise passing amongst themselves. A defender attempts to intercept or win the puck. After losing possession of the puck (e.g. a misplaced pass, fumbling the puck whilst receiving it, or a pass intercepted by a defender), the player who lost the puck swaps roles with the defender.

Topic description

Stand upright with hips wide apart (starting position, then one leg always moving freely), alternately lift one knee straight up to navel height and lower it back to the standing position, the arms swing along and support the movement (knee lift in place). The rhythm/intensity can be varied.

Attention:
Keep your upper body stable/upright, actively support the movement with your arms.

Lighten:
Lift your knees less high; slower execution (reduce rhythm/intensity).

Harden:
Lift your knees higher; fast execution (increase rhythm/intensity); perform the exercise on a soft mat.

Variant I:
Execute the movement very slowly and linger briefly in the one-legged stance to further improve your balance.
Variant II:
Arms folded behind the head, elbows crossed towards the raised knee.
Variant III:
Knees turned out to the side when lifting, arms swinging more to the side.

Material

1 soft mat ► Make the exercise more difficult

Topic description

Multiple catchers try to touch the remaining participants in a limited playing field. If a participant is caught or leaves the playing field while running away, they wait in place until they are freed. The following variations are suitable for this:

  • Legs in straddle position: release by crawling between the legs
  • Crouching position with lowered head (Böckli): Liberation by jumping over using a straddle jump
  • Underarm support: Liberation by jumping over with both legs
  • Kneeling position with one leg raised, one arm bent in a high hold: Release by sitting down on the raised leg and pulling down the bent arm ("flush after going to the loo").

Variant:
Whoever is caught performs an additional task outside the playing field (e.g. global forearm support or wall sit until the end of the pass).

Topic description

Stand shoulder-width apart, arms hanging at the sides of the body, bend the knees until the buttocks are lower than knee height and at the same time bring the hands together in front of the body at chest height (arms bent with the elbows at the knees). Maintain a deep squat position.

Caution:
Lower your buttocks backwards, not your knees forwards. Keep your knees behind your toes. Keep your back straight at all times (tense your core), distribute your weight over your entire foot, push your knees outwards (do not tilt inwards).

Lighten up:
Do not lower your buttocks too low (greater angle in the knees - buttocks at or above knee height).

Topic description

From the deep squat position, the weight of the upper body is shifted forwards so that you can finally support yourself on the floor with outstretched arms (knees do not touch the floor). In this quadruped position, the heels are lifted off the floor (tiptoe position) and the legs are bent, pushing the knees outwards. Perform a push-up from this "frog position". After the push-up, return to the deep squat position by pushing off the floor with your arms to shift your weight onto your feet. Straighten your legs to stand upright.

Caution:
When performing the push-ups, make sure that you not only bend and straighten your arms, but also work with your legs (actively push your knees outwards).

Lighten the load:
Support your arms on a raised surface (e.g. bench or large stone).

Topic description

From the deep squat position, shift the weight of your upper body forwards so that you can bring your outstretched arms to the floor. From this position, lift one foot and one arm crosswise off the floor. Bring the foot under the body to the other side and stretch the leg out to the side (including rotation of the upper body - chest and leg point in the same direction). At the same time, wrap your arm and place your hand on your chest. The weight is then distributed on one foot and on the arm supported on the floor. Reverse the sequence of movements to return to the starting position and perform the exercise on the other side. Return to the deep squat position and finally straighten your legs to stand upright.

Caution:
Do not lower your buttocks or the leg stretched out to the side to the floor, but still keep them as low as possible. Actively push the shoulder of the supporting arm backwards and hold it in place so that the shoulder joint is protected/relieved.

Lighten the load:
Support your arms on a raised surface (e.g. bench or large stone).
