Written by Mark Coles - Follow on Google+ | Facebook | Twitter

The 24th and 25th of August was the official fitness tests for the Nottingham Panthers Ice Hockey Team.

For this coming season I have come on board as the consultant Strength & Conditioning Coach.

Day 1 was held at Virgin Active Health club in Nottingham and day 2 was held at M10 Fitness. Day 1 tested the teams fitness levels in the way of an Intermittent recovery yo yo test and day 2 covered strength, flexibility, movement, power and body composition.
