-May 30th, 2012- Tuesday night I was a guest on Teddy Jenner’s Radio program ‘Off The Crosse Bar‘.

-May 29th, 2012- Landmines are a great exercise you should be including in your lacrosse training program. They train anti-rotation of your core. You should feel a small pull in your abs on the opposite site of your body than the bar is on. A strong, stable core will allow you to transfer force through […]…
-May 25th, 2012- Most training sessions end with some sort of Conditioning or Energy System Development, whether it be sprints or intervals on a bike depending on whatever you have available to you.

-May 10th, 2012- I make my living as a Strength Coach, which means that I’m all for physical testing for lacrosse. I think it’s important for athletes to know how much they can Hang Clean or how many Chin Ups they can do. Single Leg Strength: Test It! Bench Press, which is my least favorite […]…
-May 8th, 2012- Rest and Recovery are just as important as actually training. In fact at certain times of the year they may be more important than training. As the Toronto Rock get set to host a semi final National Lacrosse League game this weekend, it is more important for them to recover for the […]…
-May 4th, 2012- Have to post this as one of the goalies is family. My nephew, Eric Penney, is the one in blue, playing for the St. Catharines Athletics in a preseason game against his former team, the Brampton Excelsiors. Good job bud! The next Paddy Campbell?…
