This week Topher and Jeff welcome Ashlea Jones, from Athletes In Training, to the podcast. Toph calls this one “a fantastic hockey nerd episode” - and he means that in the absolute BEST way possible! Ashlea is a phenomenal skating coach in Ontario who works with high level players (junior, college, and pro) as well as youth players with big dreams. You can’t play hockey at the highest levels without being an incredible skater, and Ashlea gives such tremendous insight to help players of any level. In this episode we talk about: — Edgework, Skating stride & mechanics — Ankles,foot action, and mobility — How today’s players’ posture is inhibiting loading — Speed, power, acceleration & becoming a faster player AND SO MUCH MORE!
