A 13-week elite off-season program designed to push players beyond their limits, both physically and mentally. Inspired by the most effective training methods used at the highest levels, this is the ultimate summer development plan for players committed to taking their game to the next level.
For the first seven weeks, from early June to July 21st, the focus will be entirely on off-ice training, with sessions three days a week to build a strong foundation. Once on-ice sessions begin on July 21st, the program will require a full commitment, with athletes training five days a week for most, if not all, weeks.
