I’ve gotten a lot of questions about my Ultimate Hockey Development Coaching Program, but by far the most common question is: “Is this for me?” As excited as I am about this program, the truth is that it may NOT be for you. This program is really only for players or other people involved in […]

I always like free stuff, and research has shown that I’m not alone in that area. In fact, the word free is the single-most powerful word in all of marketing today. Ever go into the grocery store needing 1 of something and fall victim to the buy 3 get 1 free offer? “I don’t even […]

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been passionate about helping hockey players realize and fulfill their potential. One of the questions I’m asked most frequently is why I got into this field to begin with (and why I like it so much). The truth is that I’ve known EXACTLY what I wanted to […]

It’s been several months in the making, but it’s finally ready. I’m excited to announce that registration for the Ultimate Hockey Development Coaching Program is officially Open! And I have great news…keep reading. I’ve basically spent the last 3 months recording coaching calls with 13 of the top experts in hockey and athletic development to […]

I’ve been outspoken about the importance of achieving and maintaining optimal hip mobility (read: range of motion) as a means of improving rotational power (important for skating fast and shooting hard) and preventing hip-related injuries like groin and hip flexor strains, sports hernias, and low back pain.

I had never heard of it before so I took a look and found some interesting stuff. We haven’t integrated these “tests” into our assessment protcol at Endeavor, but I am integrating […]

Last week at Endeavor Sports Performance, my boss left a copy of the 2003 NHL Pre-Draft Combine packet with the test results in my office. I don’t put too much stock in absolute testing numbers (how many future NFLers have been studs at the combine and flopped in the show!). I think it’s more important […]

Over the weekend I was sifting through some articles to see if I could find a good one to write a review on for Fitness Research Review Service. I came across an interesting article assessing differences in flexibility improvements comparing active and passive stretching and wanted to share the results with you. I still go […]

What a week. Things have been really chaotic as I get ready to launch my new hockey training project and as our Tier I youth and Junior players return back to Endeavor for their off-season training. I wanted to let you know about a special opportunity I just found out about. In January I mentioned […]
