Game-breaking plays in hockey always come down to either first-step quickness, agility, or breakaway speed. Speed, Agility, and Quickness for Hockey Performance presents a detailed review of the drills and techniques to improve movement skills for offensive creativity and defensive containment. In an easy-to-understand and apply manner, the DVD explains and demonstrates a series of exercises that are specifically designed to enhance hockey performance, including stopping-speed, countermovement quickness, plyometrics, reaction skills, lateral movement, cross-overs, and pure lightning footwork. Among the topics covered: readiness assessment, developmental exercises for speed, developmental exercises for agility, developmental exercises for quickness, on-ice drills, rest intervals.
