Off-Ice Goalie Training Video Content Is Coming

On-ice goalie training, and attending various goalie schools or goalie camps throughout the off-season can prove costly for many families.  Therefore, Goalie Army Academy has developed a partnership which is sure to take any athlete’s game to the next level.

This July, Goalie Army Academy is pleased to announce a partnership with Adam Bracken of The Fitness Lab in order to supply our students with additional goalie training options to assist with attaining their off-season objectives, while improving their range of mobility, and overall game.

Throughout the summer, we will be filming off-ice exercises which students, coaches, parents, and associations may access for free.  These various goalie training segments will be launched as soon as possible to ensure that our students are making the most of their off-ice workouts to be fully prepared for the upcoming season.

Seems like just a teaser right?  Here’s a list of some of the topics we will be covering with Adam at the Fitness Lab which can be implemented into any off-ice goalie training workout plan:
