Description

This week we celebrate Vechs’ HUGE 40th birthday by bringing on his Mount Rushmore of strength and conditioning coaches in hockey. Michael Boyle, Matt Nichol, Brian Galivan, and Patrick Galivan join us to talk all things dryland training for hockey.


In this episode we talk about:


— The massive shift we’re seeing in dryland agility in today’s kids: better hands, but worse in the gym


— Trying to sample as many different movement patterns as possible


— Being realistic on what kids have access to nowadays


— How much parents are wasting on expensive strength & conditioning coaching


AND SO MUCH MORE!
