  • Episode 2: Goalie-Specific Training for Hockey with Maria Mountain
    Jan 27 2025

    In this episode, Maria Mountain, who specializes in goalie-specific training for hockey, shares her insights on:

    • What makes the goalie position unique from forwards and defensemen and the implications this has for off-ice training
    • Why certain methods lead to goalies “over pushing” and getting out of position, and specific strategies to fix the issue
    • The role of strength training for goalies, and important information for goalies who don’t want to get too “bulky”
    • Differences in the conditioning demands of practices and games for goalies, and how coaches can alter drills to improve their goalies’ development
    • Key considerations for avoiding hip injuries and maximizing durability throughout the season

    In this episode, Maria provides several practical examples of exercises goalies should integrate into their routines. I'd highly encourage you to watch the video of this episode on my YouTube channel (Goalie-Specific Training) and to check out her social channels below, which are packed with exercise demos for goalies.
