Looking to help players get ready for the upcoming hockey season, Bauer Hockey has launched a new series of training videos aimed to enhance skill development for hockey players of all ages and abilities.
Dubbed #GetFitFriday, videos from the eight-week series will be posted to Bauer’s YouTube channel every Friday and feature some of the league’s top talent, including Patrick Kane, Jack Eichel, Jonathan Toews, Aaron Ekblad, Dylan Larkin and Auston Matthews. The series is hosted by Adam Nicholas, a top hockey skills instructor, who has worked with several professional, collegiate and amateur players and programs.
“Players of all ages are getting ready for the upcoming season and there is no better way to improve your play than by listening to expert advice and tips from some of the game’s best players,” Nicholas said. “These videos provide a unique and insightful look into the various styles of play and strengths of these top NHL players, and then we provide practical and easy-to-follow steps for players of all abilities to incorporate these skills into their game.”
The series kicks off with a video titled Finding Your Winning Fit, which includes Kane, Toews and Eichel discussing the importance of finding the right skate for not only optimal fit, but also for each player’s specific style of play. Additional videos in the series include:
- Efficient Strides with Jack Eichel
