On this episode of the Hockey IQ podcast, we sit down with Paul Matheson, expert modern skating coach.

A few areas in this episode we discuss:

• Building blocks of skating
• Posture and balance, "upper body will sabotage your feet"
• Lower body lean > upper body lean
• Fixing the kick
• Body weight during turns
• Training youth vs training professionals
• Doing technique slow instead of fast
• Getting puck involved
• Nuances within phases of skating
• Sprinting theory vs glide theory - launcher vs slider.
