After spedning the first half of my life thinking of myself as an unathletic wimp, it's a tremendous rush to me to be able to play this tough game. I'm 37 years old, but I look more like 27. I am, in fact, healthier than I was at that age. Injuries happen in life. It's not a sin to get injured.
Hockey is an intense, exhilarating sport, and it carries with it increased dangers.
To face those dangers I train and condition my body to increase its capacity for stress, reduce the likelihood of injury, and increase my recuperative powers. I also wear and maintain safety equipment that reduces the chance of injury. Check out my Hockey Goalie Gear web page. Copyright 2001 Michael Roeder. All Rights Reserved.
