Acceleration
The Acceleration program begins with a pre-test to measure the athlete's current fitness level. The athlete is then matched to the protocol that best suits his or her athletic capabilities.
Speed Training
Players skate on the Athletic Republic-patented skating treadmill. Short duration/high-intensity sprinting sequences simulate hockey shifts, delivering the most sport-specific conditioning program possible.
Strength Training
Strength training focuses on muscles biomechanically specific to hockey, including muscles used in shooting, passing and goaltending.
Plyometric Training
Hockey players perform specific plyometric drills for increased coordination, explosive power, lateral power and rotation, and landing strength.
