PLAYER DEVELOPMENT

Jay Schroeder has been involved for 25 years, in the design, implementation, and evaluation of training plans for individuals from the ages of 4 through 84. He has studied the great training systems of the world, not to find the successes but to establish the point at which they failed. He then put together his system of training to overcome these points of failure. He has traveled to Eastern bloc countries and developed working relationships with some of the most knowledgeable in the field. He has designed unique protocols for use with the ARP as well as the typical equipment in the gym setting, as they relate to rehab strength, injury prevention and elite athletic mastery.

 

Jack Blatherwick

The late great Herb Brooks always proclaimed Dr. Jack Blatherwick as the best hockey training physiologist in the world.  "Jack was way ahead of his time in hockey training" said Brooks.   Jack's book on "Overspeed Training" for ice hockey players illustrates his knowledge of hockey training.

Jack Blatherwick helped Herb Brooks train the 1980 U.S. Olympic Team and then joined Herb's staff on the New York Rangers.  Jack has since worked with several NHL teams in helping train its athletes.

Jack is currently employed by the Washington Capitals as their strength and conditioning coach.  He has also been working the past several summers with many Sheehy Hockey clients in developing their strength and speed for hockey.
