    Default Is goalie specific training a lie??

    Hi Gang,

    There was a question (challenge) about 'sport specific' training the other day on another forum. Even some of the hockey strength coaches that I look up to don't believe goalies need any special off-ice training either. Check out this blog post to see my thoughts on it...

    Is goalie specific off ice training a lie??

    What do you think?
    Cheers,
    Maria

    This is why you can't listen to everyone on the internet! The idiot arguing that Goalie Specific training isn't real is just looking for attention. Be very selective people.

    I agree..... How many players do you see needing cat like recation in order to drop and get thier pad out to make the save, or having the reactions and flexabilty to make the impossible save possible!

    Each individual postion needs its own training from a Defenceman to a sniper. Each postion requires something that little bit different from the next.

    There is always summer skiing in Whistler, but the majority of the Glacier is taken up by ski & Board Park Camps, so there really is not that much free for just riding, so not really worth it. We did get fresh snow last week up on the hill, and it only got hot on Monday. Summer must have gotten lost on its way here, but all is good its here now! hahaha

    THanks for the Congrats, hopefully everything goes smooth! Gona play hockey next Tue evening show my family what I do when there is no Rugby available hahaha
