For the last 8 years, Tier 1 has specialized in training for hockey players. Hockey players require multi-faceted core competencies. Only Tier 1 trains for all the skills necessary to excel at the world’s greatest game. Additionally, Tier 1 provides required nutrition, ongoing comparative testing and uses periodization of training to increase intensity as the player develops. No two workouts are ever the same and Tier 1 has not had a single athlete miss a day of training due to injury. In short, Tier 1 has designed and implemented a hockey training methodology to fully develop player skills in a safe and challenging environment.

Hockey Training Includes:

• Power for Battles and On Skate Stability
• Quickness Training for Short Races
• Core Stability and Strength to Stand Up to Opponents
• Agility for Elusiveness and Small Area Competition
• Hand Eye Coordination for Pass Catching and Shooting
• Endurance for Third Period and Tournaments
• Core Rotation Power for Shooting
• Upper Body/Lower Body Independence for Better Playmaking
• Increased Flexibility for Injury Reduction and Prevention

The Tier 1 program is designed to help young athletes gain strength, athleticism and self-confidence. If skaters work hard in the gym, practice is easier. If practice is easier, players learn more. The more players learn, the greater their enjoyment and performance in games.

Cost: Three days per week: $499, Two days per week: $349
