Book Reviews of 52-Week Hockey Training (52-Week Sport Training Series)

Book Review: Well Structured, a Good Guide to Success
Summary: 4 Stars

52-Week Hockey Training is a very complete book that, if followed properly, will help immensely in improving your overall fitness as well as getting you into great "hockey" shape. The book overall is very satisfactory and achieves its purpose, but I think that some improvements can be made. Some of the photos do not give a good picture of the exersice and all of the pictures are in black and white. A foreword by an NHL star was lacking and would have been a nice compliment. One thing I thought very useful however, was the breakdown of the four main training periods from off-season to postseason.

This book is a great training guide that covers everything from flexibility to power and quickness. There are countless exercises, drills, procedures and schedules that will make attaining your goals much easier. A very complete book that is a bit rough around the edges.

Summary of 52-Week Hockey Training (52-Week Sport Training Series)

Serious hockey players and coaches make a 12-month commitment to the sport. How they prepare physically during the off-season directly affects their performance during the season. 52-Week Hockey Training provides a four-phase annual conditioning plan that is proven to get players in shape to excel technically and withstand the physical rigors on the ice.

The book presents a wide selection of workouts containing specific exercises and drills designed to improve flexibility, muscle strength and endurance, aerobic endurance, speed, and power and quickness. Detailed descriptions explain and accompanying photographs and illustrations show the proper form and technique for each drill and exercise. Goals and plans for developing each of these performance features are outlined for each phase of training: preseason, in-season, postseason, and off-season.

52-Week Hockey Training has everything you need to get in shape-and stay in shape-for top-level hockey. It's a proven full-year training approach that gets players in peak form for the competitive season.
