Hockey Hips, Early Specialization, and Work Capacity

After having Eric Cressey as a guest on the Evolving Performance Podcast, he invited me to do a “home and home” and be a guest on his Elite Baseball Development Podcast.

Check out the episode here: Hockey Hips, Early Specialization and Work Capacity

In the episode, we talk through a lot of hockey-related topics and their parallels to baseball, including:

  • Challenges of a lengthy, competitive NHL hockey season
  • Practical strategies for managing stiff hips
  • The skill-specific nature of work capacity
  • How teams are evaluating and developing hockey players

P.S. One of the questions I get most frequently from hockey players (and their parents and coaches) is “how can I get faster?”. I wrote a book on this exact topic that includes age-specific training programs. Get your copy here: Speed Training for Hockey
