Can’t Find Your Motivation?
Remember when Austin Powers lost his mojo (actually Dr. Evil stole his mojo)? Man, did that ever put him in a funk – – he had to go on a mission to get it back. Remember how the movie ended (SPOILER ALERT) … he had it all along, it wasn’t something that anyone could steal. […]
Do these muscles even work?
Any of you have really developed lower back muscles? Like two big ropes on either side of your spine in your lower back? Reach around there right now and have a feel? Do you feel what I am talking about? If you do then you darn well better keep reading… At first you might think […]
Home Workout For SKATERS – No Equipment
Your turn skaters! In case you missed it, last week I put together a home workout program for goalies…these week I have one for you. I want to make it simple for you to achieve your goals (it won’t be easy, because you have to do the work). I also want to make it simple […]
Home Workout For Goalies – No Equipment
I want to make it simple for you to achieve your goals (it won’t be easy, because you have to do the work). I also want to make it simple for you to see whether you really WANT what you think you want. Here’s how I am going to do it. I am going to remove […]
The birth of a strength coach
I got the question again – – so I am finally posting this video in response. If you have not interest in the path I have taken over the last 25 years to get to this point as a strength coach, business owner and entrepreneur, then here it is, enjoy. If you could not care […]
Invisible problem holding you back.
You have a PRIORITY problem (not a time problem) This one will ruffle feathers – – hey, I’m just putting it out there and you will either take it for what it is worth or read it and decide it does not apply to you. You do not need to email me with your schedule […]
Q&A – tourney nutrition, InSeason Training, hip pain
Had a great Facebook Live Q&A yesterday. I was surprised by the turn out I got at noon on a Wednesday – thinking a few of you were supposed to be ‘working’ – – ha ha. I will move the day and time around, mainly based on my schedule, but also to give you a […]
Reducing the severity of concussion
I want to be very clear, this is a prototype and the data thus far is pilot data, which does look promising, but it is not statistically significant – yet. Understand? But I wanted to share the tool we have been using this off-season to help our athletes reduce the incidence and severity of concussion. […]
Q&A Catch Up
What up – I am here at my Mastermind in San Diego – – which actually brought me a question too, I will tell you about it at the end… I have been getting more and more and more email questions from hockey players looking for a bit of advice or a quick question and […]
Pre-Season Flexibility
Happy Monday and welcome to Pre-Season week. That’s right, the theme for this week’s goalie training articles is what to do during the pre-season as you get into try-outs, practices and eventually games. If you have been following a program like Shutout Academy or UGT 3.0, then you are all good – just keep going […]
Sometimes it just doesn’t work out…
As you will read below, I had a pretty sucky day on Tuesday…but then I woke up this morning and had a friend request on FB from Tim Thomas (yes THAT, Tim Thomas – and HE wanted to me my friend), looks like the tide is turning 🙂 …okay on to my story… I hear it […]
Putting this goalie workout under the microscope
Thank you to those of you who sent your programs in for review. One of you was quick on the draw and had their program to me in under 10-minutes of me sending out that email (and I send those out pretty early in the morning). In order to do that I know that this […]
