2016 Off-Season Training Highlights – Part 2

My hockey guys were hitting PR’s in the gym week in, week out during the off-season.

But it wasn’t just about lifting weights this summer.

As I’ve said many times before, pushing, pulling and squatting a heavy bar is NOT the only part of developing true athleticism.

So we sprinted, we jumped, we changed directions, we pushed the sled and carried heavy objects for distance.

Here’s a taste of what took place in our off-season program…

We had so many guys reach new levels of strength that it would take me ages to upload all their lifting videos to Youtube.

I’m a lazy bastard, so I won’t do that.

But I’ll end this post with a solid display of raw strength.

Here’s Matias Nisula of our U20 team trap bar deadlifting 235 kg for a big PR to cap off the off-season in style.

Props to all the guys for a solid effort throughout the summer. Things will only get better as we move on to in-season training starting next week.

I expect big PR’s all season long…
