OFF SEASON TRAINING / GOALIES

Week 2 · Hip Integrity & Lateral Push

Everything a goalie does laterally starts at the hip, and every hip rep here is owned rather than forced. Strength progresses from goblet to barbell only once the range holds under load. Volume climbs. Same movements, more total work — this is the week that builds the base everything after it stands on.

01Week 1 · Hip Integrity & Lateral PushEverything a goalie does laterally starts at the hip, and every hip rep here is owned rather than forced. Strength progresses from goblet to barbell only once the range holds under load. Week 1 is re-entry: own the technique and the range, and leave every set feeling like two more were there.02Week 1 · Upper & Anti-Rotation CoreGlove hand, blocker and the trunk that keeps them square. Nothing here is about a bigger bench — it is about holding a position while the rest of the body is moving underneath it. Week 1 is re-entry: own the technique and the range, and leave every set feeling like two more were there.03Week 1 · Posterior Chain & Groin ResilienceThe session that keeps a goalie on the ice in February. Hinge strength, eccentric control through the front of the hip, and adductor loading that progresses from isolated to fully weight-bearing. Week 1 is re-entry: own the technique and the range, and leave every set feeling like two more were there.04Week 1 · Reactive Quickness & Recovery FlowShort, sharp and reactive — the day that trains how fast a goalie gets from set to set. Landing control keeps the volume survivable, and the session ends in the same hip work it started with.
