How Treadmill Training Works
Skaters are lead through a variety of progressive drills by athletic training professionals based on their current skill level. These drill help improve biomechanical positioning while executing a proper stride.
The trainers watch and instruct as the player skates on the synthetic ice in real time, as well as on a delayed video monitor, to analyze their stride post-interval.
With trainer instruction, correction, and guidance, along with video feedback, the athlete is able to make corrections, allowing for all players with different learning styles to succeed.
When To Expect To See ResultS
According to a number of research based programs that have been tested through treadmill training, you can expect to start seeing physiological and technical adaptation results (muscle memory) by the 8th training session. Of course, when training consistently.
The majority of skaters we have at The Skating Lab Toronto begin to see changes in their stride after their first session, after learning basic skating mechanics.
Treadmill training is high intensity interval training, with one-on-one attention and instruction from the trainer with a period of rest. The interval training mimics the fast paced hockey game, but enforces constant correction, while on the synthetic ice. The constant cueing and instruction of the trainers allow the skater to identify their skills and weaknesses. The skaters learn how to use their body effectively and efficiently, translating these skills to the ice in game pressured situations.
The greatest results come from those athletes that are committed to the process.
Pricing
30-minute sessions train up to 2 athletes at a time. Each athlete is billed individually per session — one session per athlete, per visit. Two athletes sharing a 30-minute slot would each book and pay for one session. Each skater receives their own individual treadmill time with one-on-one instruction, coached to their own skill level. All of our trainers are Kinesiology graduates, ensuring every athlete receives professional biomechanical instruction and stride analysis. Groups of up to 4 athletes train in 1-hour time slots upon special request. Payments can be made in person upon arrival for training sessions.
All Price Per Session prices are listed without HST. The Total Package Price is HST inclusive.
Team pricing is also available.
