Hockey and Sports Training
DOC HOCKEY
Hockey Training has many aspects and must all be considered for optimal Recovery and Strength Building without over training.

Evaluation of Team Training
"The non-specific ability can often have a negative influence on the key motor ability. For example, an extraordinary development of absolute strength has a negative influence on speed." -Fundamentals of Special Strength-Training In Sport Y.V. Verkhoshansky
"It was not very long ago when an athlete did not trouble himself to discuss the point which is so important in today’s training. The question of strength was decided rather simply: whomever could lift the most weight or record the highest reading on the dynamometer was the strongest. However, experience and scientific experimentation has uncovered facts which indicate how primitive those evaluations of strength were. This resulted in the necessity to consider the question of strength preparation in sport more carefully; and to precisely define the concept of strength."-- Fundamentals of Special Strength-Training In Sport Y.V. Verkhoshansky
Our Explosive Endurance Hockey Training is customized for each team and their philosophy
Primordial Strength Principles:
Defining Explosive Power Endurance: "The prolonged ability to produce explosive power output in athletics developed through speed strength and strength speed maximization achieved through small and large complex training based in shock and variable advancement with minimum rest periods in phases that consistently irritate the organism to maximize super compensation over the lifetime of the athlete."
"Exercises with small weights, approximately 20% of maximum, is the principal method of developing speed strength
(A. V. Korobkov, 1953; I.G. Vasiliev, 1954; V.S. Gerasimov; V.N. Yakhontov, 1954; N.V. Ziimkin, 1956; N.G. Agdgomelashvili, 1964; B.I. Butenko, 1967).
With this method speed of movement increases with and without loads and the general increase in speed can reach 146% of the beginning level. Movements should be executed with maximal effort; the apparatus should be accelerated as soon as possible." -Y.V. Verkhoshansky Fundamentals of Special Strength Training in Sport
Stu McGill even advocates for Healthy bodies to train explosively for strength and preservation of joints.
Short range stiffness, super stiffness, and performance
Super stiffness is used by the best football hitters, golfers, martial artists and weightlifters. Consider the hit in football where maximum speed of approach requires the combination of sufficient stiffness and compliance. But at the instant of impact a state of total body stiffness is generated by rapid contraction of all muscles. This is what makes the impact so devastating by some. Breaking the board by the martial artist requires the skill of compliance (relaxation) to build speed but with rapid super stiffness just at impact. The professional golfer who has a relaxed backswing but rapidly obtains super stiffness at ball impact (followed by an astounding relaxation rate) is the one who achieves the long ball. We have measured the creation of "pulses" of muscle force in athletes used to create "shockwaves". Precise timing, the rate of relaxation, joint buttressing together with all of the principles of Superstiffness is optimized. Muhammad Ali, Bruce Lee, Vasily Alexeyev, all knew the principles of Superstiffness. Understanding, training and executing these principles will lead you towards achieving ultimate performance. www.backfitpro.com

Evaluation of Team Training
- What is the practice schedule and game schedule in order for athlete to recover and not to overtrain athlete
- Is the athlete getting their proper recovery and what are they doing to increase recovery: are they doing flush workouts, using cold and hot baths, hydration, Active Release Technique, Massage, Chiropractic treatment, Kinesiotaping, physiotherapy.
- In regards to overtraining a player should be evaluated: how players body feels, output of players in practice and games.
- VO2 max is too long not measuring hockey output. (measuring perseverance)
- Cone work: intervals should be shorter (quick bursts) more reps less distance, develop more fast twitch muscles, better game like energy use.
- Weight lifting is Power lifting type training (Train Slow be Slow). Should be more sets less reps and move weight quicker.

Our Explosive Endurance Hockey Training is customized for each team and their philosophy
- Heavy weeks of games and practice: decrease volume with explosive training
- Light weeks of games and practice: more volume
- Eg 1. Increase from 4 to 8 sets, if athlete has more time for recovery
- Eg 2. decrease from 8 to 4 sets, if less time for athlete to recover.
