A plank trains you to hold a position.

This trains you to fight for it.

One small change to the standard plank and the core has to work in a completely different way. Instead of staying still it has to resist being pulled out of position. That's a much harder job.

On the ice the core isn't just holding. It's reacting to contact, to direction changes, to everything happening around the player. Train it to do the same thing in the gym.

One small tweak.

A lot more out of your plank.

Stop chasing bigger numbers in the gym.

Just because your kid is lifting more weight doesn’t mean they’re getting stronger on the ice. Those are two very different things.

The game is not played with dumbbells and barbells. Training needs to transfer to the ice, not just to a heavier squat rack.

A lot of players spend too much time chasing gym numbers and not enough time training movements that actually carry over to hockey performance.

Focus on strength that shows up in the game. That means training positions, movements, and demands that mirror what actually happens on the ice.

The goal is a stronger hockey player, not just a stronger lifter.

Why punch into the ground? And why jump onto a b $Why punch into the ground? And why jump onto a box? There's a reason for both. Punching the feet into the ground teaches the body to produce force quickly. The box takes away the impact of landing back down, which means less fatigue and more quality jumps every single session. Lean back. Load. Punch down and drive up. That sequence is not random. It's training the body to go from zero to full power in a fraction of a second. That's reactive power training. And every part of it has a purpose. 💪 Martell Elite Fitness | Hockey Performance reactive power training, box jump training, off-ice training, youth hockey, hockey performance, explosive training, hockey strength, strength and conditioning, hockey parents, ice hockey$
