My husband had the 1st version of this book and requested the new, revised edition. He was very happy with this book and liked that it included updated information and cd.
He uses this for hockey conditioning when he is playing (he plays in a beer league) but also uses it for conditioning when he is cycling as well.
5.0 out of 5 stars Must have for any player Jan 17 2012

As a former semi-pro player this was my bible in my younger years and I just bought the updated version with DVD to get back into playing! This is a must have not only for hockey players, it has been key for me staying injury free in soccer and hiking as well!
