    Why 10 mins of stickhandling is better than 30

    When I told Scott and Jamie from the Crazy Hockey Dads podcast that I recommend just 10 minutes of stickhandling for kids, they looked at me like I was crazy. Too short. Not enough work. Half of it is rest, for crying out loud. But here's the thing: the best training is the training that actually gets done. In this episode, I break down why shorter, focused sessions beat longer ones every time. We get into the psychology of habit-building, why kids can't focus for 30 minutes straight (and why we shouldn't ask them to), and how 10-minute sessions actually create momentum that leads to way more total training time. I also explain what I'm really doing during those "rest periods" and why they're secretly some of the most valuable coaching moments for building hockey IQ. If you've ever struggled to get your kid to stick with at-home training, or if you're wondering whether these short sessions can actually make a difference, this one's for you. Takeaways: Why the best training is the training players will actually do How 10-minute sessions build consistency better than longer workouts The psychological advantage of "stacking" multiple short sessions Why rest periods are undercover Hockey IQ development How to make training feel fun instead of tedious What 10 minutes a day actually adds up to over a season

    Setting hockey goals that actually work

    Most hockey goals fail because they're too vague, too big, or have zero accountability built in. In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how to set goals that actually stick. The kind that turn into real results on the ice. We'll cover why specificity is everything, why starting small is the secret most players miss, and how to build accountability so you don't just set goals and forget them. I also get into something called the fresh start effect and why right now might be the perfect time to lock in and finally make it happen. Takeaways: -The fresh start effect can boost motivation for goal setting. -Vague goals often lead to failure; specificity is key. -Process-based goals are more effective than general goals. -Focusing on one habit at a time creates momentum. -Starting small makes it easier to build habits. -Accountability increases the likelihood of achieving goals. -Tracking progress helps in assessing improvement. -Involving trusted individuals can enhance accountability. -It's important to set realistic goals for success. -Utilizing coaching resources can provide additional support.
