Alexander Ovechkin, a professional ice hockey player on the Washington Capitals, made headlines for breaking the National Hockey League’s (NHL) record for most goals scored. This record was held by Wayne Gretzky since 1999, and while Ovechkin is a veteran in the league (joining in 2005), this only serves as an impressive addition to this great accomplishment.

In an interview with Pat McAfee, Alex admitted that he plans to play “as long as he can.” We have a few suggestions to help him stay on the ice for years to come (and help you stay in the game longer, too).

Start an Eye Health Performance Supplement Regimen.

The eyes are the first line of offense and defense for nearly any physical activity. Keeping your eyes sharp and healthy helps you stay in the game longer. Supporting your eyes’ performance starts with nutrition. However, eye-specific nutrients like dietary zeaxanthin (zee-uh-zan-thin), lutein (loo-teen), and Omega-3 fatty acids can be challenging to get through diet alone. That’s why many professional athletes and eye care professionals alike turn to supplementation.

EyePromise® eye health performance supplements deliver the right balance of high-quality ingredients to improve visual performance and protect long-term vision. Combined with rigorous third-party testing to meet NSF Certified for Sport credentials, you can be confident that you’re getting what your eyes crave.

Eat Right.

While this is no surprise to professional athletes like Ovechkin, your body needs proper nutrition to support the level of physical activity you want to achieve. Fueling with a balanced diet of protein, fruits, vegetables, fats, and carbohydrates helps to set your body up for optimal performance.

Exercise.

Another point applied by professional athletes, regular exercise strengthens and supports the body’s joint and muscle structures. Newton’s first law of motion states, “an object in motion tends to stay in motion,” and this applies to the body, as well. Maintaining routine activity helps to keep your body in performance condition.
