Or do a single workout:
Week 1 · Crossover Power
Speed through the turn. Lateral bounds and hurdle work for the crossover push, resisted sideways drive, then deep frontal-plane strength — this is the session that separates skaters. Week 1 of 2 — an advanced block. Every power rep is maximal intent or it does not count.
Week 1 · First Three Strides
Pure acceleration. Horizontal jumps and throws at full intent, a heavy trap bar, resisted sprints on the sled, and the hip flexor work that makes the recovery stride as fast as the push. Week 1 of 2 — an advanced block. Every power rep is maximal intent or it does not count.
Week 1 · Top Speed & Engine
Upper-body drive for puck protection at speed, rotational power for the release off the rush, and the conditioning that lets you do it on the third shift of a shortened bench. Week 1 of 2 — an advanced block. Every power rep is maximal intent or it does not count.
Week 2 · Crossover Power
Speed through the turn. Lateral bounds and hurdle work for the crossover push, resisted sideways drive, then deep frontal-plane strength — this is the session that separates skaters. Week 2 of 2 — sharper and faster. Cut a set before you let quality slip.
Week 2 · First Three Strides
Pure acceleration. Horizontal jumps and throws at full intent, a heavy trap bar, resisted sprints on the sled, and the hip flexor work that makes the recovery stride as fast as the push. Week 2 of 2 — sharper and faster. Cut a set before you let quality slip.
