Week 2 · Session A · Contrast Power
Strength expressed fast, in two planes. A front squat primes a box jump, a heavy lateral lunge primes a lateral bound, and the point shot gets loaded from the ground up before the groin and a carry finish it.
This week
Build. Sprint and interval density climbs while the lifts stay heavy and short. Every rep fast, nothing near failure.

Keep the block moving.
← Previous sessionWeek 1 · Upper Strength, Battles & Shift IntervalsThe upper body that wins the net front: a heavy press primes a fast throw, rows and carries hold the posture, frontal-plane strength protects the groin, and longer intervals match the longer shifts a defenseman plays. Transition. The summer’s strength stays, the volume comes down, and repeat-sprint work starts. Expect the conditioning to bite harder than the lifting.Next session →Week 2 · Transition Speed & Repeat SprintsA defenseman’s speed runs forward, backward and sideways. Sled work in all three directions while fresh, change of direction at full speed, then blocks of short sprints on short rest. Build. Sprint and interval density climbs while the lifts stay heavy and short. Every rep fast, nothing near failure.
