In this episode, Maria Mountain, who specializes in goalie-specific training for hockey, shares her insights on:
- What makes the goalie position unique from forwards and defensemen and the implications this has for off-ice training
- Why certain methods lead to goalies “over pushing” and getting out of position, and specific strategies to fix the issue
- The role of strength training for goalies, and important information for goalies who don’t want to get too “bulky”
- Differences in the conditioning demands of practices and games for goalies, and how coaches can alter drills to improve their goalies’ development
- Key considerations for avoiding hip injuries and maximizing durability throughout the season
In this episode, Maria provides several practical examples of exercises goalies should integrate into their routines. I'd highly encourage you to watch the video of this episode on my YouTube channel (Goalie-Specific Training) and to check out her social channels below, which are packed with exercise demos for goalies.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
