Dryland Training Program to be done?:

"It is expected that all Elite and Prospect students arrive in camp in great shape. I really never buy products from TV infomercials but I strongly recommend a state of the art training program called P90X. After buying this video series I lost 45lbs and I am now in better shape than when I played in the NHL! I even have a six pack for the first time in my life. It is perfect for goalies as it works the core, functional strength, cardio, flexibility and it addresses proper nutrition. Do yourself a favor and go to www.beachbody.com and buy the P90X series. It will get you into proper shape for my camp over a 90 day period. Bear in mind that I have had no contact with this company - I just am a proven believer." Steve McKichan
