The Carolina Hurricanes Strength and Conditioning Coach, Bill Burniston, knows that just like his players, you don't need to spend a ton of time in the gym or constantly doing high-impact and high-intensity sets to see performance-enhancing results from your workouts.

That's why he created this quick 30-minute workout for our Train Like the Canes game-day workout series!

Each of these unique workouts requires minimal equipment and aims to help you build strength while also including a variety of stretches and exercises to improve your mobility and flexibility.

Game Day Workout Week 3

Equipment needed: yoga mat (optional), foam roller, dumbbells/kettlebells, cable machine, TRX bands.

Directions: Burniston structured these workouts to start with simple tissue preparation exercises to help lengthen the muscles before the workout to make them more effective at producing powerful contractions. Start with the tissue preparation exercises listed below and keep scrolling to follow the warm-up, workout, and recovery blocks. Complete each move back-to-back in the circuits with a 30-second rest between each round.
