Testimonials - Acceleration Minnesota Sports Training Centers

	Plyometric training produced great results! “The plyometric and agility training we did at Acceleration North really helped my speed and quickness on the ice. The trainers customized my workouts for what I needed to work on and it really paid off this summer.” Ryan Carter Professional Hockey Player

Greetings from the Twin Cities! "Those of you who follow my career know that I recently had hip surgery and could not compete for Slovakia in the IIHF World Championships. What you may not know is that in addition to my rehab, I’ve been spending a lot of my time working with the folks at Athletic Republic to build a performance hockey training center in my hometown of Trencin, Slovakia. The plan is for my brother to run the center, and for Trencin’s professional, junior and youth clubs to train there. If you are wondering what an Athletic Republic performance hockey training center is, I encourage you to visit www.AthleticRepublicHockey.com to learn all about their training center formats, their science-based performance training products and their profitable business model. You’ll see that even if you have limited space at your arena, there’s room for Athletic Republic’s patented hockey treadmill and the proprietary training programs that improve players’ on-ice speed, agility and power. By working with Athletic Republic, like I have, you can provide year-round, off-ice conditioning programs to the players and organizations you typically only see during hockey season. I urge you to visit the Web site, then email (hockey@athleticrepublic.com) or call 1-877-248-9018 to learn more about the company that has contributed to the competitive success of 472 NHL players, and countless collegiate, junior and youth players."
