JEB In Season Team Training

• Once a week for 10-20 weeks to compliment the JEB
  on ice schedule
• Focused on the off ice conditioning for the teams
  to allow the coaches to be able to focus more on
  systems and team play
• Each week the teams utilized Athletic Republic
  Germain Arenas three period training regimen
• The Hockey Treadmill was used every week in
  addition to both Plyometric and Strength Training

• Pre-Testing at the onset of the training
• Post-Testing at the conclusion of the program
• Testing Consisted of
• Performance Testing
• Strength Testing
• Conditioning Testing

Testing Descriptions

• Broad Jump
• The broad jump is an explosive test of the lower
  body. We instruct the athlete on the form we are
  looking for then ask them to stand with toes
  behind a set line. From there they proceed to
  jump out as far as possible from a stand still.
  We take the measurement based on where their
  heels land on the tape measure.
• Endurance Hurdle
• The endurance hurdle is a direct correlation to
  an athletes stamina and lower body endurance.
  Each athlete will perform as many consecutive
  jumps over a 12 hurdle for 20sec. Technique is
  important during this test as every jump will
  measure the given athletes plyometric effect. We
  will count repetitions and be able to gauge
  overall performance based upon number of jumps
  completed and how much time the athlete spends
  with his/her feet touching the floor.
• Push-ups
• Push-ups are another test we use to measure upper
  body musculoskeletal strength. The athletes are
  given 30 seconds to do as many push-ups as
  possible while keeping proper form. A maximum
  push-up test is a good test to track how an
  athletes upper body strength progresses. Due to
  the physicality of hockey, having a strong upper
  body is crucial for attacking the puck carrier or
  fending off an attacker.
• Sit-ups
• Sit-ups are a standard test for almost all
  sports. We give the athlete 30 seconds to
  complete as many sit-ups as possible. We
  instruct them before the start of the test the
  proper form we want to see and only count the
  repetitions completed using the proper form.
  Core strength is important to the game of hockey
  in that the power and strength needed for
  shooting, passing, stickhandling, and checking
  all derive from the core.

Testing Descriptions (Cont.)

• Pull-Ups (Max Reps)
• The pull-up test is a valuable tool for assessing
  physical fitness and predicting athletic
  performance. This test is an indicator of upper
  body strength and muscular endurance. The pull-up
  test serves as such a valuable testing tool to
  predict upper body strength as it pertains to
  sport because it requires the athletes to lift
  and manipulate and control his/her own body
  weight.
• Cunningham Faulkner (Max Time)
• The Cunningham Faulkner is a test performed on a
  running treadmill and is designed to measure an
  athletes anaerobic capacity. For this test the
  treadmill is set at a speed of 8 mph, and at an
  elevation of 20 degrees. The tester times the
  athletes as they attempt to run as long as they
  can at the prescribed speed and elevation. The
  test usually ranges in duration from 10 to 45
  seconds, a great indicator of an athletes
  anaerobic capacity. This test is an ideal
  indicator of on-ice conditioning levels as the
  typical hockey shift should last between 30 to 45
  seconds.
• Lateral Box Hop
• The lateral box hop test is a hockey specific
  measurement of agility and lower body leg power.
  This plyometric test is 20 seconds in duration
  and requires the athlete to hop laterally across
  a plyometric box in a movement pattern that
  mimics a skating stride. This test is useful
  because it engages many of the same muscle groups
  as skating therefore athletes that test well on
  this can expect to see these results transfer to
  their on ice performance.

AR - Germain would like to commend the
2011-2012 JEB hockey players for their hard work
and dedication. We wish you the very best both
on and off the ice.Best in Training,Jake
