MIXING it UP
It never ceases to amaze me how many junior hockey players have played the game and only hockey from a very young age. Few approaches could be more limiting than this. Expand your horizons and develop a more complete young player.
ELASTICITY for SPEED - part I
In a 2 part series we examine the hows and whys of increasing tendon elasticity through improved flexibility, circulation, eccentric loading, and neuromuscular control. We apply this to a program to achieve more efficient running mechanics, allowing you to store and utilize elastic energy effectively and potentially improving running speed.
ACTING on IMPULSE
Training Impulse (TRIMP) is a well-established metric used to quantify training load in athletes by assessing the intensity and duration of physical exertion. It integrates heart rate data into a formula that reflects an athlete's physiological response to training, facilitating effective monitoring and management of training loads. Dive in
