If I could go back to the summer before Boston Bruins development camp, this is exactly how I would train.

“I’ve worked with many trainers, but Hooder has had the biggest impact on my development. His injury-prevention approach kept me healthy for a full season for the first time since I was 14. The way he connects science directly to on-ice movement is ahead of its time.”
