As you’ve been hearing a lot recently, this is an exceptionally busy time of year for us at Endeavor. Over the last week, we (finally!) moved into our new facility and are still piecing together everything. I’ve been posting pictures of the process on twitter, so if you’re interested in following along give me a […]

Heart rate tracking and heart rate variability (HRV) have received increasing levels of attention from the strength and conditioning community over the last several years. A little less than a year ago, after watching a video of a presentation Joel Jamieson gave on energy system development, I started digging deeper into the research on heart […]

At the end of last week I got an email from Cal Dietz, the Strength and Conditioning Coach of the University of Minnesota Men’s and Women’s Ice Hockey Teams (among other sports), with several sample programs that fit within his “Triphasic Training” paradigm. I met Cal in person for the first time at the BSMPG […]

I hope you’ve had a great week. It’s been a bit of a change of pace here as our nights have slowed down because a lot of our kids are away at camps or vacations. The downtime has been great to dive a little deeper into some of the manual therapy work I’ve been learning […]

Last week I posted the presentation I gave recently at a USA Hockey U-14 Regional Festival Camp. If you missed it, you can check out the presentation here: USA Hockey Regional Camp Recap I also added the presentation and all of the videos at Hockey Strength and Conditioning, so if you wanted to check those […]

As I mentioned a couple days ago, I spent the end of last week and the weekend in Colorado Springs working at a USA Hockey Regional Camp. If you weren’t already aware, earlier that week wild fires in Colorado Springs took a turn for the worse. The last I heard there was something like 32,000 […]

Last Thursday I hopped on a plane to Colorado Springs to present to and train 186 U-14 hockey players. I just got back last night so I’m going to keep today’s post short and sweet and share another video with you. On Wednesday, Independence Day here in the US, I’ll share a quick recap of […]
