Specific training for the energy systems is an essential component of the overall physical training of a hockey player.

Our conditioning program is made up of 3 specific workouts targeting each area of aerobic and anaerobic conditioning crucial for improving ones game.

Hockey is a game of constant movement, change of direction, quick acceleration and deceleration and power endurance. Intermittent actions involve both alactic, lactic and aerobic components.

The average shift is approximately 90 seconds. The shift on the ice can amount up to 40 seconds of active and 30-40 seconds moderate work. The theories to this point are that hockey is an aerobic game and that massive amounts of long distance running will improve ones game, well those days are over. Science has proven that the aerobic energy system supplies only a small portion of the energy for the intense effort expelled on the ice, but supplies most of the energy of moderate work such as gliding and contribute greatly to a player’s recovery between shifts and periods. This being said the anaerobic alactic and lactic acid systems are of great importance when attempting to improve ones game conditioning, and must therefore be targeted during training. Our conditioning plan gives you all 3 workouts; a quickness and agility workout (lactic acid), a speed power component (alactic), and a separate aerobic conditioning routine (aerobic).

What is Periodization? And how does it apply to Sport Specific Training?

Periodization: Strength training programs structured into phases to maximize sport specific strength. Utilizing scientific principles, objective measurements, and subjective restrictions to plan a program that will allow the athlete to peak for his or her event or season regardless if it be in six weeks or one year. Periodization allows an athlete to sectionalize his or her off -season to maximize gains and recovery and minimize injury and plateaus caused by over/uneducated training. Periodization allows us to design a program which encompasses all aspects of training appropriate for any athlete; Transition, Anatomical Adaptation, Hypertrophy, Maximum Strength, Power, and most importantly Conversion to Power. Each stage is designed to lead into the next and finally into the Conversion to Power section, which allows an athlete to transmit the power, speed and strength acquired in the gym into practical gains on the playing field.
