    Jeremy I want to thank you so much. I play for the Chicago Mission hockey club. I was a 4th line player for them. I only scored once about every 12 games. But now I have starting your videos and training at home every day. now I'm a 2nd line player who scores almost every game. I have earned the spot on my team so thank you for helping me on my journey.

    A good point for higher level players. The technique I talk about in the video can be applied to almost all shots from a variety of positions though, it's not only when you are in the slot with your shoulder to the net.

    Jeremy your videos have helped me improve so much. I am a thirteen year old and I only play roller/inline hockey (ice is so much money) and I wasn't the best player. So the night before one of my games I watched a bunch of your videos while I was shooting in my garage. And I when I play in my game the next day and I got my first hat trick. I got the first goal of the game on the first shot (five hole) and another goal later in the first period (five hole) later on in the game was lined up with the goal line and I took a wrister bar down. And I owe that whole performance to your videos. It'd be awesome if you got back to me and once again thanks

    I plan on doing a video for this soon. For skating the best thing you can do is get lower, have good balance, and get full leg extension. Skating is very technical so I won't try to explain everything here, but the biggest issue I see with players is not enough knee bend. I shared a great e-book with the subscribers of my blog about improving skating, it is written by Kevin Neeld and is FULL of good info, if you visit his blog you should be able to find it. it's called Breakaway hockey speed

  • @howtohockeytraining
    @howtohockeytraining  11 лет назад +1

    You are right, when editing the video I noticed I said 105, but there's no going back so I just left it in there. I was waiting for someone to mention it. Still 101 is a hard shot from a 5' 11 guy!

  • @Cruz474

    I haven't been doing any of that weight transfer stuff omg, time to hit up a stick and puck

  • @26Proman
    @26Proman 11 лет назад +1

    It's optional depending on the situation and your style.
    When most players will lift their back leg as they shoot they are making sure that all of their weight is transferred forwards, however it can be hard to lift your leg in tight spaces and when coming out of a turn. Lifting your leg also makes you more vulnerable to body checks so watch out.

  • @howtohockeytraining
    @howtohockeytraining  11 лет назад +1

    Awesome, that's why I make these videos :)

  • @howtohockeytraining

    Shoot at home, all you need is a shooting pad and some pucks.

  • @azp091
    @azp091 11 лет назад +1

    when i shot, i stand on one leg, is that wrong? hope u understand what i mean

  • @howtohockeytraining
    @howtohockeytraining  11 лет назад

    It depends which shot. With the snap shot it's critical to get the hands away from the body. Search Google images for Ovechkin snapshot and then TJ Oshie snapshot and you will see what I mean. They're hands are away from the body to flex the stick and get leverage in the snap motion at the end.
    With the wrist shot it happens but not quite as much. It happens VERY quickly though.
    There is a right and wrong way to have the hands out, so I know what you mean by being off balance. Technique is key.

  • @andrewfrancis8190
    @andrewfrancis8190 9 лет назад +2

    Thank you Jeremy. I quit playing hockey after a minor injury to my knee cap, when i began high school. It's been the biggest regret of my life these past years, as a 21 year old getting back into hockey, it can be really nerve wrecking getting out there whether it's an open ice, or open hockey or even a league, when your at an age expected to be fully adapted... Your videos have been helping me regain what i had, but to somewhat catch up to all that i've missed. I've had major problems with shooting primarily. I feel as though i've i,proved by 300%, and have gone from power being my main weakness, to shooting way to high.

  • @howtohockeytraining
    @howtohockeytraining  11 лет назад

    I find with the wrist shot (the one I am showing) it's not nescessary but sometimes happens.
    With the snapshot (the method I teach in another video) it's basically required to get full weight transfer. In my article on the snapshot I show two NHL examples of good technique and both guys do the leg kick as it helps transfer the weight.
    For the slapshot you will sometimes lift the leg, it's a by product of getting all your weight into the shot and transferring weight from one leg to the other

  • @howtohockeytraining
    @howtohockeytraining  11 лет назад

    Yes during the season focus on your technical skills as it will pay off a lot during games. During a game pay attention to your flaws or weaknesses and work on improving them (but also work on your strengths as well)
    During the off season don't be afraid to play other sports as well, sports like soccer, tennis, squash, and lacrosse will keep you in shape and also work similar muscles as hockey.

    @raptor2837 11 лет назад

    That's really a different shot. Here he is showing how to increase power. Personally when I lift my right leg (i'm a lefty) to shoot i'm trying to take a really quick snapper to surprise the goalie.

  • @krabz_oem
    @krabz_oem 11 лет назад

    I don't know actually, but I think that lifting a leg helps you to lean in the shaft more and load up the stick better. Well that is what I feel.

  • @NSco1996
    @NSco1996 5 лет назад

    I've only been skating for 5-6 years and I have a heavier slap shot than most of the junior or college players that show up, maybe after watching how to lean more which I dont really maybe I'll break the boards. Kinda funny I pretty much only have lower body strength and not too much upper body

  • @supremedog1573
    @supremedog1573 8 лет назад +2

    Another good tip is to follow through on every shot

  • @offishboss1
    @offishboss1 11 лет назад

    This is not how to shoot at all. You do not want your arms extended as far as possible on any shot when you have the puck too far away from your body you can't get any down force on your stick or the puck. You want to be balanced and have the puck close to your body on any shot.

  • @PeteGainz
    @PeteGainz 11 лет назад

    Alright big chap, during the hockey season should you focus more on techincal things such as shooting and stick handling? Is it during the off season when you should dedicate more time to fitness?
    Or work on techincal ability and fitness as a 50/50 split?

  • @PERSTAKLAUS

  • @yoshpeters3079
    @yoshpeters3079 4 года назад

    I dunno about that permanent muscle memory. I used to be able to snipe anything and go bar down. With my slap shot I used to be able to go bar down and shoot over the net from the blue line same with my wristers and snap shots. Now it’s inconsistent sometimes I can elevate it sometimes not. I can barely get air on my slappy and I can go top corner. Once you figure it out talent doesn’t just disappear. You’re supposed to have muscle memory once you do it once it doesn’t go away.

  • @threethrushes
    @threethrushes 6 лет назад

    10,000 repetitions are nowhere near sufficient to get a good shot.
    In 2017 I shot over 25,000 pucks off-ice, and I estimate about 2,000 on ice. In 2018 I have shot about 2,000 pucks on ice.
    My snap shot and wrist shot are serviceable, but my slapshot is still weak and unreliable.
    I really believe that it takes at least 50,000 practice shots to make a good shot. And this number does not include backhand - which needs just as much practice to be truly elite.

    This is a great video. I was actually doing some research on what makes a "hard shot" in hockey because I believe the same concepts can be applied to picking up speed and distance on my golf swing. I noticed that you really extended your hands well out and through your shots. Also it is interesting to hear that you believe that 100 reps a day is a good objective to put the action into muscle memory. About 10,000 reps. That requires a disciplined work ethic but can be achieved with a good time schedule, I think.

    • @Denverslopes
      @Denverslopes 10 лет назад +1

      If your using puck off ice, then keep doing what your doing. If your using a ball then switch to a puck. When your on ice with a puck, work on your follow through and release because that's where all your height comes from. The reason why its not raising when your on the ice is because, you have not enough of a follow through.

    • @wilstyle00
      @wilstyle00 10 лет назад

      Try putting your hand lower on the stick to start, it's the easier way to make adjustments with the height difference as Aaron was saying.

    • @MsPippa7
      @MsPippa7 10 лет назад

      You need to work on your stance, if the puck is in-between your legs and you follow though high with your stick, the shot will go high, and follow through low and roll your wrist for a low shot, and have the puck more towards your front foot.

  • @cabbageatthesun
    @cabbageatthesun 11 лет назад

    I am ambidextrous, and lucky enough to dial it up from both sides (carried both right and left handed sticks). You do make a valid point about the top hand. I was fortunate to play hockey with some guys that had great NCAA, U.S. National team, NHL careers. I emulated what I saw them do while we played. At the age of 35, without touching a stick in over 20 years, I still hit 81 on the radar gun. I always thought about staying upright with my upper body through the shot, it helped increase torque.

    I really like the 3rd tip, "actually try." Everybody forgets this, you sometimes let your mind wander and don't really pay attention to your shooting. I do this, every guy on the ice practicing i see does that 80% of the time. At drop-ins you see more guys kind of flinging shots and flicking them towards the net than you see really trying to drive it into the net. Great video!

      Trying to do a Slapshot or wrist shot?
      Try to have the blade leaning over the puck and make contact with the puck near the heel of the stick. As you follow through the puck will roll up the blade and end your movement with the blade pointing where you want the puck to go.
