This was great, thanks, I been tryin to find out about "hockey training center" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Banonnor Veyathan Release - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my friend got excellent success with it.

[@CoachZac]

Strength with high reps and lots of short burst speed and conditioning drills. 30 seconds full speed and 30 seconds rest.

[@CoachZac]

When you lift weights and train, you gain strength.

[@CoachZac]

[@CoachZac]

[@schneidie97]

[@anujgupta4242]

When i skate i get tired quick so should i do strength or one leg exercises

[@CoachZac]

2-3 times based on your training schedule. Incorporate other hockey specific exercises for speed, quickness, balance, agility, mobility, and more...

[@kylecampion93]

With hang cleans aren’t you supposed to catch with your elbow perpendicular to the floor?

[@joeg1062]

whats best way to get rid of belly fat when lifting weights?

[@CoachZac]

limit rest, circuit training. Do 15-20 reps of 5 exercises and go through with no rest between. Then rest 2 min and repeat. Do that 4-5 times through.

[@gregorymichael9031]

Change in diet is what gets rid of belly fat. Cut out excess sugar and junk foods out of your diet. Try it for a month and log your results! Look up 5x5 Stronglifts. Great entry level program for lofting focussing on the basic compound lifts: bench, squat, deadlift, row and overhead press.

[@kylecampion93]

You can’t spot reduce fat. You have to lower your overall BFP

[@bigtwothree]

With the push press you want to drive your head through as the bar passes over your head

[@CoachZac]

There is one on my channel, head over and search speed and agility

[@CoachZac]

Hey Martin, why don't you take a long walk off a short bridge.

[@sauceboss10]

I heard that that the shoulder press will stunt my growth. I am 16, 5'8 so I still need to grow

[@lukeartukovich9612]

I’m trying to be the best player I can be but I don’t have a lot of equipment so can someone please send me the best home workout for my shot strength and speed

[@Ynotnow9900]

Get the book "starting strength" by marc rippetoe. Became advanced level strength athlete. Do single leg exercises as well, for balance. Then focus on skating, get as good of skates u can afford. After this, learn the puck work

[@CoachZac]

There is a ton of people in your position that have gained muscle, so it can be done. Head on over to our website and get in touch with me, I will help you out and put together a nutrition plan that will help you pack on muscle.

[@davidolivas7376]

I noticed you're not locking your knees on the squats; was that intentional?

[@davidolivas7376]

Thank you.

[@KoenMueller]

David Olivas you really shouldn't lock your knees, it may have negative effects on your knees

[@awesomecaps]

What do u mean by hockey specific training. Do u mean like doing stick handling drills or shooting drills. Or are there hockey specific exercises for building strength. I do have a book called the ultimate weight training guide for hockey and it has workouts and nutritional guidelines and stuff like that. I"m not sure there is hockey specific strength exercises. I think it's just strength training. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

[@CoachZac]

Yes. ALL of that. Hockey specific training includes drills that are specifically designed for the purpose of becoming a better hockey player and improving your physical tools. This includes strength, speed, conditioning, stickhandling and shooting. That book sounds like a good start.

[@garycirillo1544]

how many times a week should you do this?

[@mikeflori2281]

Could I do this with the Program 3 times a week.

[@WuCreations]

Put a fucking question mark eh

[@BreatheIn]

+Mike Flori Yes you could !

[@CoachZac]

+squuaaad ya! or else someone on the internet is going to tell you how to write correctly!

[@CoachZac]

Not if you use proper form.

[@CoachZac]

Ya, definitely, google that and you will find the biggest scam on the internet. Beat it buddy.

[@jkeanerdmanodo6794]

lift low reps high weight to gain pure strength. lift around 12 reps to gain size. Do 20 reps to gain endurance.

[@CoachZac]

Not always the case but thanks for the comment.

[@Rangerfan-gz1rx]

For natural athletes you really can't separate training for strength and size, the two go hand in hand, just lift heavy and you will get bigger, and getting stronger automatically increases endurance, but endurance training doesn't typically increase strength, thats why a power lifter who can bench 400lbs can easily bust out 100 bodyweight push-ups, but a soldier who only does extremely high volume body weight push-ups and can do 100 push-ups can't bench 400lbs. For naturals the overall best approach is to just lift heavy, build up your strength, the size and endurance will come with that.
