Have you been bored and looking for something to do?
I’ve been talking about building out a membership for Boost Hockey for the past few years and have even thrown out a few different ideas of how it would work.
Finally, everything has come together.
I wanted to create something that all hockey players could use and benefit from, regardless of age and skill level.
I think hockey, at its core, is a simple game. And I also think that every player, regardless of their skill level and experience, can continue to improve on those skills.
So whether you’ve been playing hockey for 9 months or 9 years, your individual skill and fitness can always be improved.
For me, it comes down to three key elements; the effort you put in, the quality of your repetitions, and the consistency of how often you train.
All three seem like no-brainer attributes and expectations, but the reality is, we all need a good reminder from time to time.
How hard you’re willing to work is always going to be the underlying factor to anything you do in life. You’ll never improve at anything if you’re not willing to work for it. So even if you think it’s a simple drill or, “something you’ve done a thousand times…” the effort that you put into the drill will make all the difference.
The quality of repetitions works hand in hand with working hard with a purpose. Don’t just go through the motions. Focus on each rep and try to make it the best it can be. It sounds silly at times, but that mental focus is a huge part of making yourself better.
Finally, consistency is key to growth. The more consistent you are with your work, the better your work is going to be. If you want to get better at something, build getting better into your routine. Make it a part of your day.
Like I’ve talked about so many times before on the blog, all three of these are completely in your control. You can control your effort, you can control the quality of your reps, and you can control the consistency behind those reps.
I built the membership to help facilitate these same ideas.
For members, they’ll get sent a new workout everyday that will take approximately 20 minutes to complete. (It’s also super easy to use and track from your smartphone.)
It’s largely stickhandling based (one of those skills that we can ALL improve on) along with a simple workout that you can do from anywhere (no equipment required).
Being off the ice has been tough, but if you still want to get better at hockey, it’s definitely possible and the choice is up to you.
You can give it a try now for only a $1 and I’d love to hear what you think.
Let me know if you have any questions and I hope to see you inside.
