Goaltending has evolved, it’s time that off-ice training evolves with it.
In today's high-speed game, the goalies that are rising to the next level are playing more dynamic, explosive, and athletic than ever before.
The new era of elite goalies aren’t just technically proficient on the ice, but they’re developing the strength, speed, power, and mobility off the ice.
If you have the ambition to elevate your game to the next level, then it's time to elevate your training. It's time to get relentless.
“They gotta start training like goalies.”
One of the top goalie coaches in Toronto was sitting in our office asking questions about how his goalies could get more powerful in the crease.
He was world renowned for creating very technically strong goalies, but it was a month into the off-season and his elite goalies weren’t seeing the progress he hoped for.
“We’ve cleaned up a lot of inefficiencies, they’ve tightened up a lot of gaps, but they’re still not getting around the crease with the speed & power as they need to. The game’s so fast today, elite goalies need to be faster.”
Goaltending had evolved.
From the days of big goalies, to goalies who relied on raw athleticism, to goalies who had become ultra efficient and positionally sound. But with the explosion of speed and skill in the modern game, goalies weren’t keeping up.
“They just don’t have the power to make their pushes as explosive as they need to be or the speed and athleticism to recover. It’s not on-ice, they have to be developing these traits off ice. I’ve seen a couple of their programs and it’s crap or their trainer just lops them into “hockey workouts” and trains them like players – but even lighter. What if I sent you 5-6 of my goalies for the rest of the summer and they just trained as goalies? Train them for demands of the crease."
He had gotten it exactly right.
The game had gotten faster and while goalies had gotten more technical, they hadn’t developed the off-ice attributes that would let them play more athletic and dynamic.
And while more goalies were taking off-ice training seriously, they were still training for the demands of hockey, not goaltending.
So for the next 12 weeks we radically changed how these goalies trained.
Essentially – we built goalies that would thrive in the crease.
The results showed. Not only did the Goalie Coach keep messaging about how things were now “clicking” and they were starting to move like professional goalies but the goalies all commented about how their body felt better than ever and their movements felt more effortless in the crease.
Then Coach Kyle got the text: “Can you put together something that all my goalies can use? Give them the exact workout playbook they need to be following. We have guys who are all over the place and I want to make sure they're training properly.”
Not only did we create a program that all his goalies would join, but our original goalie crew started having their goalie partners reach out the next summer. Then those goalie’s coaches started to reach out and we were suddenly sending our program to goalies across the world.
We decided this program was too good to save for just pros and our elite goalie connections. We wanted to release it to the public so that goalie’s across the world would have access to the training they needed to thrive – and just like that, the Relentless Goalie program was born.
A few years later, hundreds of Goalies from youth and high school to college and pro to the goalies stopping pucks in the beer leagues have used the Relentless Goalie program to develop a body that thrives in the crease.
Built to make goalies thrive in the crease.
The Relentless Goalie Program is Strength & Conditioning program specifically designed for goalies to develop the strength, power, and athleticism that translates to playing more dynamically in the crease.

At Relentless, we build off-ice workouts for on-ice performance. Delivering the exact Strength & Conditioning hockey goalies need to start moving, performing, and playing better where it counts. We deliver the training that translates.
Create a mobile body with exercises that address structural imbalances & restrictions so that you feel & move better.

Enhance the athleticism to thrive on-ice. With plyo, agility, and footwork drills we develop speed.
The exact workout structure that elite hockey players are using to build their body.
No more fluff, randomness, or bodybuilding style workouts. This is training 2.0 - with full-body and integrative workouts designed to challenge every facet of your body with each workout including:
Build a bulletproof body.
Each Relentless workout starts with a series of mobility and activation exercises specifically designed to injury-proof the body while addressing the common imbalances and mobility restriction in hockey players’ bodies.
Speed is the variable of success for hockey players.
That’s why each workout has a specific work designed to improve your on-ice speed.
Depending on the day, this is either plyo-based and power-focused exercises designed to generate more power in your stride and develop you into a more explosive skater OR speed focused work designed to develop your foot speed, change of direction, and refine your athleticism.
Hockey demands strength and power.
We don't just lift weights. We develop the functional strength and power that Hockey Players need to thrive in today's game.
We’ve eliminated old-school exercises and “weight room strength” and instead focus on developing the kinetic chains that allow athletes to translate their strength and power more effectively where it counts.
The three areas that hockey players can never get enough of.
Each Relentless workout finishes with extra mobility and either extra core or conditioning.
Extra core consists of exercises that build total core strength allowing hockey players to shoot harder, play stronger, and never get pushed off the push again.
Conditioning isn’t just about getting bagged. We focus on developing the specific energy systems that translate to a hockey shift, period, and game. Earn more ice time by being in elite conditioning.
Relentless Mobility isn’t just about stretching. It’s about intentionally improving range of motion and eliminating movement restrictions and chronic tension from areas that hockey players struggle with so that they can feel, move, and perform better.

I’ve used the relentless goalie program 3 times now.. So I figured I owe you guys a review! I love these workouts. They’re consistently challenging. Truly look after the goalie body with mobility and prehab work. My goalie partner and I used these all last season and had no injuries.. No tweaks.. And both put up our best GAA in our junior careers.
Relentless is the GOAT when it comes to goalie training. I did another coaches program last summer & it was just okay.. But then finding you guys really turned up my training to a whole new level. I’m fired up with my progress & can’t wait to get into this season!
Leaving a review for my son (u14) who used this program during the off-season. His goalie coach suggested getting stronger this summer with help how he gets around the crease. We looked around for a trainer but no one really understood goalies.. So we figured with the amount of goalie videos you guys had that relentless would deliver.. And you guys did! He totally loved the workouts & every session his goalie coach commented on how his power was improving. You could really see the result of his off ice work. I love that its lifetime access because we’lll be using this again next summer!
Big props for this program! I didn’t think I was gonna be one of those guys following online workout programs in my 40s, but I stumbled on this I figured I’d give it a shot.. At the very least it’d help my aging goalie hips.. But I honestly I’ve LOVED these workouts. My hips do feel better, but I’m also feeling stronger and more athletic (as “athletic” as a 46 year old tendy can be). My only gripe is that you guys weren’t around 2 decades ago!
Finally a program for goalies!! I follow your youtube content for a long time and finally decide this is the summer I go beast mode in my training! Your Relentless Goalie program has been huge help in my training. My goalie coach is very impressed the with speed and power I have on ice and so am I! I will dominate this year and owe big thanks to you and relentless!!
I just got invited to be a call up for my hometown Junior A team and the coach commented how I look “physically ready for the next level”. I’ve always been the “big goalie” but I feel like I’m finally developing the power with your program to start playing faster and more dynamically. I’ll keep you guys updated this season because you know I’m going to be relentless with this opportunity!
