Hi all,

Our weekly plan goes something like this (changes possible as usual but the general guide line is as):
Mon:
– Off-ice: strength (for example; 8-10 x 2 x 10 one-legged squats w/ 2.5kg weight)
– On-ice: skills (for example; skating, skating w/ puck, puck handling and etc.) + SAGs
Tue:
– Part of the team is at practice w/ club coaches, rest are resting or hopefully playing something outside (pihapeli?) 🙂
Wed:
– Off-ice: speed (for example; spurts w/ decision, one-legged skips or jumps, plyometrics)
– On-ice: skills (for example; passing drills) + SAGs
Thu:
– Off-ice: agility or "movement frequency" (for example; agility ladder drills as specific to skating as possible w/ high foot speed)
– On-ice: game situations (for example; 1-1, 2-1, 1-2 and etc. since Thu is half-group only practice = repetitions)
Fri:
– Off-ice: mobility (for example; dynamic mobility w/ some "animal" movements, bear, crab and etc.)
– On-ice: high tempo drills and game (for example; 2-2 in small area like corner w/ keep-away or scoring, high speed passing drills and anything from 3-2 continuous to a 5-5 game)
Sat/Sun:
– Game(s)

Has worked in my opinion though Mon is sometimes a hard evening for the boys…
