At the Barron Hockey Academy our athletes begin with a performance evaluation to expose imbalances or weakness and attack these issues from the ground up. Following our in depth evaluation we build a program specific to your needs.  We can work on everything from your body composition, size gains, strength gains and your metabolic conditioning and recovery.  This is done by using a functional, movement based, strength and speed program.  The Barron Hockey Academy uses a variety of training modalities to achieve maximum strength, speed and conditioning gains including: Medicine Balls, Olympic Lifts, Kettlebells, Sled work as well as the other Hockey Specific Equipment found within our facility inside the Orange County Ice Palace.
