Best way to train for ice hockey season
If you play ice hockey, you are going to see a lot of big, strong guys. It doesn’t matter if you are not a huge tall hulking beast – you can still make it to the top level. Look at Martin St. Louis. Let’s face it, the guy is short, probably a lot shorter than he claims to be, but he is one of the top players in the world. He was undrafted and yet is a perennial all-star. He should be proud of his height, because he is showing everyone that it doesn’t matter if all the other guys are bigger than you are; if you are keeping yourself in top physical form and have great ice hockey skills, you can be in the NHL too.
When you need the advantage of strength to compensate for a weak part of your game, you need to see the best workouts you can. Take Donald Brashear. The guy is a tank, but really, how good is he at ice hockey? The skills he brings to the team are that of an enforcer, not of a top goal scorer. And he plays in the NHL and makes millions. If you want that life, you need to be serious about your strength and conditioning program.
It isn’t true that practice makes perfect. Why, you ask? Because if you’re practicing 4 hours a day, but you’re practicing the same bad habits all day long, you are doing more harm than good. You need to see the right techniques to improve your game. You need to break all those bad habits instead of getting more settled into them. It’s best to learn from the pros, so you can see what they did to make it. Break those bad habits now and get to that next level in ice hockey.
With all the worldwide competition out there, what is going to set you apart? It’s going to be not only your hockey skills, but also your physical conditioning. Don’t just train during the season and expect to make it to the pros. You need to train year round, both on and off the ice. If you are a really fast skater but are weak, the other guys are just going to knock you down. If you are a big strong guy but can’t sprint down the ice, the fast guys are going to blow right past you. Put all of it together and improve your strength and your speed. Take your game to amazing heights with the right ice hockey preparation.
