Top Hockey In-Season Strength Maintenance Exercises

In last weeks article we focused on the overall idea of how to make your hockey In-Season workouts elite, this included strength maintenance, weight transfer, and mobility for injury prevention. This week’s article will focus on our top exercises for strength maintenance during the season! Now these exercises would vary or could be modified depending on your age or current development level.

Goblet Rotation Squat

The goblet rotation squat is one of our top go-to exercises for In-Season strength! Not only does it development overall strength but focuses on improving strength in the rotational plane of motion which is a huge need for hockey players. Not to mention getting your body moving differently by adding rotation will help your body stay strong and injury free!

 

Weight Shift Pushup

Pushups getting too easy for you? Time to advance your pushup game then! Adding a weight shift not only improves your range of motion strength, it also improves shoulder health by getting it moving  and supporting weight in various positions. Building strength isn’t all about lifting big weight, you can also improve your strength in different ranges of motion.

 

Goblet Deep Lunge Rotation

This is an great exercise to hit everything a hockey player needs! The deep lunge not only helps improve strength in the legs and glutes but also increases ankle mobility which is essential to getting low in your stride. Then the rotation adds a balance and rotational weight transfer aspect to help with improving torso rotation strength.

 

Overhead Up Downs

This one can be advanced for some but is the ultimate exercise for improving strength throughout the whole entire body! The kettlebell overhead helps improve shoulder strength, stability and range of motion. The Up down part helps improve leg strength and balance. The combination of movement and stability creates a huge load for the core to handle greatly improving core stability and strength!

 

There are tons of exercises we could have listed here that would help with your In-season strength maintenance but these four exercises really focus on getting the body strong and maintaining that strength to help you excel all season long! Stay tuned, next week we will break down our top exercises for movement and weight transfer development!
