How Athletes Can Stay On Top Of Their Game During A Shutdown

Amidst the rapid spread of the Coronavirus there has been postponements and cancellations of major leagues and events and at every level of sports across the world.  These decisions are based on the evolving COVID-19 public health threat and will help to ensure the events do not contribute to spread of the pandemic.  There are still many questions that remain unanswered as to the length of these shutdowns and for many athletes this unprecedented situation calls for a great deal of adjustment.

Although these are unfortunate circumstances it does not mean that your development as an athlete also needs to be put on hold.  During this hiatus and time of uncertainty, you might be wondering how you are going to continue to work on your game.  You may no longer be able to depend on the structure provided by your team practices to help improve your individual skills.  Figuring out how to best maintain your focus and while continuing to develop your skills during this period will be complicated. Having a training plan while facilities are on shutdown and your league is postponed is a proactive way to stay in shape both physically and mentally and continue to raise your skills.
