Double Axel Exercises On and Off Ice

Описание: Double Axel
Wow what a journey it was to make it a personal goal to land my double axel again after having a baby 2 years ago and not being on the ice for over 3 years...also note before that I would occasionally once a year go skate and try jumps again for fun. But...

Through regularly teaching my classes and constant off-ice practice of my FLEXAFIT off-ice jump exercises, I worked really hard this whole past summer to condition my body to be ready to jump on the ice again.

So...here it is after doing once a week on the ice for 3 weeks to get my feeling of the skates back, on the third attempt...BOOM it happened!!!

Disclaimer: I had all my triple jumps and double axel consistent as a skater when I was younger, so the muscle memory was just waiting to be activated again.

Check out one of my favourite on ice and off ice drills that I did to help my left side alignment.
