Comment âprogramâ for the best off-season program that gets you to stop sucking wind FAST
I hear WAY too many young hockey players talk about wanting to gain a lot of muscle in the off-season. I love the goals, but letâs talk about realistic numbers:
First, if youâre looking to gain weight, you likely donât want to lean out. Thatâs means youâll need to gain some fat mass to maintain your same body composition. Itâs simple math. Letâs say youâre 150lb and 10% body fat (15lb of fat). If you gained 20lb of muscle and still only had 15lb of fat, you would now be at 8.8% body fat. Most athletes trying to gain weight are already too skinny, so you should (probably) want to gain a little fat too
Secondly, 20lb is a huge amount of weight to gain even if you change your goals to gaining mostly muscle and some fat. A typical weight gain should be ~.5-1.0lb per week. Very lean athletes could be on the higher end because they can afford to gain more fat, but less lean athletes should be on the lower end. That means youâll need 20-40 weeks to gain 20lb, so that number might be a little out of reach depending on your off-season length. Going any faster will just cause you to gain too much body fat compared to the amount of muscle you will be gaining
Lastly, if weight gain is your goal, you should be weighing yourself AT LEAST 3x per week. I see athletes weighing themselves once per week all the time and using that to gauge their progress, but your weight fluctuates too much for that to be an accurate representation. You may have had a later dinner the night before and are heavier one morning, or be a little dehydrated so youâre lighter another morning. If those are your only two weigh ins across two weeks, you may think you are (or arenât) making progress when the opposite is true. Weigh yourself multiple times per week and take the average to look at your week over week progress
Really excited to be a presenter for the Strength on Ice Summit II next month! Honored to be speaking about energy system development for hockey in a lineup full of extremely bright professionals!
A great season starts with a rock solid off-season, and the first few weeks should be setting you up for success
Donât just jump in to the high intensity work and think youâre getting a jump on everyone else. Take the appropriate steps to make it a great off-season

I see the argument way too much that a trap bar deadlift âisnât a real deadliftâ because the handles are higher and was reminded of this today while performing rear foot elevated split squats
Iâm 5â8â (on a good day) and a traditional RFE stand is just a bit too high for me to get full hip extension and knee flexion so it pulls on my quad tendon and creates some pain. Elevate my front foot so the stand is lower and thereâs no issues!
Unless your sport is powerlifting or Olympic lifting and you have to use a traditional barbell and plates, make the exercise fit your dimensions and your goals
Remember, youâre training to support your sport. Training isnât the sport itself
