Reactive Countering Training
The Ultimate recipe for hockey greatness
Reactive Countering Training™
R.C.T™ separates good players from great ones by focusing on the nuanced inside game. It Unlocks each player’s full potential through a proven innovative training methodology that mirrors the demands of today’s game.
the Hidden Value of Simultaneous Motor Skills Firing in Hockey
Reactive Countering Training™ focuses on the often-overlooked but crucial ability to “Fire Multiple Motor Skills Simultaneously”—a key element for mastering the high-speed, inside-game skills essential in today’s hockey.
Players like Connor McDavid are prime examples of how this translates to the ice. By seamlessly executing complex Reactive Countering Training™ (R.C.T.) maneuvers involving synchronized foot and hand movement, Reactive Puck Placement™, and lightning-fast reaction times, these athletes consistently outmaneuver defenders, create offensive opportunities, and dominate the game.
R.C.T™ Delivers real world Results
Effective Reactive Countering Training™ requires more than just moving the puck. It focuses on mastering the precise coordination of multiple motor skills. Key elements include:
Countering with Puck Placement Angles
Use strategic angles to outmaneuver defenders by taking shorter, more efficient routes.
Example: common issue is when a player’s hands move, but their feet fail to respond in unison, disrupting forward momentum and allowing defenders to close space quickly, taking away scoring opportunities.
Reactive Countering vs Traditional training methods
Traditional training methods, such as pylons, single overload gadgets, and isolated stick handling drills, fall short of preparing players for the rapid demands of real-game scenarios.
These outdated approaches often lead to “developmental delays” by not synchronizing the critical muscle-firing sequences required for success during game action.
Unlock Your Full Potential with PEP's Patented R.C.T. Gear
Unlike traditional training gadgets that offer only a single overload, PEP’s patented R.C.T. Gear is designed for progressive overload with 2nd and 3rd Reactive Countering™ overloads.
This innovative system pushes the hands, feet, and intellect to fire simultaneously, creating a seamless connection between multiple skills.
Fire Together, Wire Together.
When physical demands are placed on skating and hands simultaneously, skills are practiced together through unique repetitions, the nervous system becomes conditioned to wire these actions together leading to faster, more instinctive responses on the ice.
Why Traditional Methods Fall Short
Many traditional training methods create developmental delays, where hands and feet don’t move in sync. This results in poor coordination, and players miss out on developing critical Reactive Countering Skills.
In contrast, PEP’s patented R.C.T. Gear creates dynamic situational play, offering:
- 12 Reactive Countering™ lanes
- Multiple puck placement angles
- Continuous overloading of hand-skating coordination
The Benefits of R.C.T. Circuits
These high-intensity circuits promote:
- Speed-Enhancing Skills: Quick-fire actions improve reaction times.
- Smooth Execution: Refined motor coordination leads to flawless, instinctive play.
- Simultaneous Skill Mastery: Players learn Reactive Countering and execute complex movements effortlessly.
