Chris Chelios's Hour Of Power

FORTY-FIVE-YEAR-OLD Red Wings defenseman Chris Chelios came to training camp this week as the NHL's oldest player, but, says his trainer T.R. Goodman, "he has the body of a 30-year-old." This summer, six days a week, Chelios hit Gold's Gym in Venice Beach, Calif., where Goodman, a former college hockey player, trains more than 20 NHL players. Goodman's hourlong workouts include no rest between sets and emphasize correct form. On his strength-building day, Chelios does seven exercises—those here as well as lateral raises and lunges (go to si.com/chelios)—repeated continuously in sequence until the hour is up.
