I’m excited about this week. Last week all the youth teams I train killed it. They worked hard, they moved well, they listened, and they helped each other. I couldn’t ask for anything more. It creates a positive atmosphere, for them and for me, and ultimately creates an environment that culminates success. Watching players develop, […]

And today, it begins. Almost a year ago exactly, I started writing what I intended to be the most comprehensive hockey training resource ever created. I wasn’t interested in developing just another basic off-season program or a theoretical manual on hockey physiology. I wanted to put my entire system on paper: age-specific hockey development recommendations, […]

Over the last two weeks I’ve written quite a bit about the various components of long-term hockey development. If you haven’t already, you can check […]

If you missed those posts, I highly […]

A couple weekends ago, I had an opportunity to attend a weekend symposium for USA Hockey’s American Development Model (ADM). The symposium was a 4-day invite only event that focused on this year’s implementation of the USA Hockey’s ADM at the 8U level, but subsequent levels (10U and 12U) were also discussed. The speakers were […]

I’ve been slacking on these updates over the last couple weeks. Between the traveling I’ve done over the last month and my work at Endeavor I find that my training hours have been cut back, but that I’m still as busy as ever! There have been a ton of updates at Hockey Strength and Conditioning […]

I’ve been very fortunate over the last several months to have an opportunity to work closely with Ned Lenny, a brilliant (and incredibly humble) physical therapist in our area. It’s always great to get a different set of eyes on our players and a different perspective on certain adaptations that we may see. Because Ned […]
