David Ciboch M.Ed. Sport Science

Former National Team Coach · Strength & Conditioning

I hold a Master's degree in PE & Sport Science and have spent over a decade coaching hockey — from youth development through to national team level, including coaching the UAE National Ice Hockey Team.

My training philosophy is built on real sport science. Periodization, force development, hockey-specific movement patterns. Every program is designed with one goal: produce measurable change on the ice. Because guessing costs players seasons.

02 — The Method

Built on science.
Tested by hockey.

Most off-ice programs are recycled gym templates. Mine are designed from the ground up around how hockey players actually move, fatigue, and produce force.

i.

Sport Science

Every exercise selection is grounded in evidence — biomechanics, energy systems, fatigue management. No guessing, no trends. Just what's been shown to work.

ii.

Periodization

Programs are structured in progressive blocks — strength, power, peak — so you build correctly across the season instead of chasing fatigue.

iii.

Hockey-Specific

Built around the demands of the sport — explosive starts, lateral power, rotational strength, repeat-sprint ability. Generic fitness doesn't translate. This does.

What players say.

★★★★★

My shot power and acceleration are noticeably different. What I love is that the science is actually explained — I understand why I'm doing each exercise, not just following random routines.

E
Ethan R.
Junior AA League Player
★★★★★

The Power & Speed program gave me an edge I'd been chasing for two seasons. My first three strides are genuinely faster and I feel explosive in a way I didn't before.

C
Chloe S.
Collegiate Player
★★★★★

As a coach, I've tried a lot of off-ice resources. This is the first one that's actually built for hockey, not just repurposed gym content. My team noticed the difference within 6 weeks.
