3S Hockey Training

Improve Strength and Speed ON the ice!

We’re going back to basics.

In hockey, the market has tried to convince us that we need special training, special equipment, special techniques to get the best results. Not only has this become complicated, it also takes a lot of time, money and effort.

So...we created Roket Gear Hockey

a tactical training system that uses the basic principles of adding weight to the human body - so you can spend less time in the gym and train where you play...ON the ice. We want you to make the most of your ice time by building power and endurance while developing your skills AND take your regular practices and on-ice conditioning drills to the next level! You’ll feel the difference as soon as you strap on Roket Gear Hockey.

It's not Rocket Science...
It's Roket Gear! 🚀

How it Works

Roket Gear

Revolutionary Fitted Weighted Shells

The patented fitted shell is designed to conform around the shin pad comfortably and stay put so you can focus on what you’re there to do. The shell clips on and off in seconds, making it easy to quickly add and remove weight, personalizing your workout on the fly for maximum benefit.

Convenient Pocket Design

The innovative pocket design allows you to place the custom crafted 1/4 lb stainless-steel weights easily in the neoprene pockets and in various positions throughout the shell as per your preference. Default weight varies depending on shell size.

How to Train with Roket Gear Hockey To Get The Best Results

 

The Progression Principle

The progression principle instructs that the overload process (adding weight to your shell) should not be increased too quickly. A gradual and systematic increase of the workload over a period of time will result in improvements in overall performance without the risk of non-improvement.

Progression is all about small increments. IT’S NOT A CASE WHERE HEAVIER IS BETTER!

The most effective approach is to feel a very little weight load while skating with Roket Gear Hockey until it is so easy you barely feel the weight at all. When that happens, it's time to up the ante and start adding more weight so you're regularly overloading your muscles and adapting. We recommend gradually increasing your weight load by 1/4 to 1/2 lbs (1-2 bars) every 2 -3 weeks.

 

How Much Weight To Start With - Training Load

Training load (how much weight to use) should be applied in a systematic fashion using the principle of progression (slowly increasing the weight load over time). This ensures proper and desired adaptations so you can systemically improve performance.

Start with low weight for 2 weeks so you barely feel the extra weight on the leg. We recommend starting with half the default weight per leg given or less. For example, if you have a Junior shell that comes with 1 1/2 lbs per leg, we suggest you start with 1/2 lbs to 3/4lbs per leg (2-3 bars). If you have a Senior which comes with 3 lbs per leg, we recommend 1 - 1 1/2lbs per leg to start (4-6 bars). Remember, you should barely feel the weight load. Whether you feel it or not, your brain feels it subconsciously and is training the proper skating muscles to recruit and strengthen.

 

DID YOU KNOW?

Science Fact: Increase in strength comes from sensory-motor development. An increase in strength is from CNS (Central Nervous System) changes, this means you can get stronger without changing the size of the muscle.

How you train your muscles is based on the information from your muscles to your brain and back. It’s a sensory-motor loop! The reason you get stronger is that you have a sensory input that tells your brain it needs to recruit faster and build the proper muscles for skating. It’s a sensory input that does the training that increases your muscle performance and speed!

SENSORY (BRAIN) = TRAINING
MOTOR (MUSCLE) = PERFORMANCE

Roket Gear Hockey allows the player to train the sensory loop without affecting the skating stride so you recruit, strengthen and increase the overall performance of the proper skating muscles!
