Complex Training

 

The following are three complexes that I use in the weeks leading up to training camp to prepare our players for the workloads they are going to experience on the ice.  I also use these complexes in lower volume and intensity during the season.  They are a great way to maintain strength//endurance and utilize training time efficiently.  Two of the complexes have been modified from the original format which I learned from Mike Boyle while working at BU.  The other is a traditional Javorek Complex.  These are advanced routines and should be well supervised and prescribed to athletes with a high training age.
