It can be used for hundreds of different exercises, ranging from rehabilitation to sports-specific applications and is one of the most basic and versatile cable machines available. The ability to train at any speed and without any impact makes it the product of choice for many different applications. With its space-saving design, the unit is available with or without a base. (Units without base must be bolted directly and securely to the floor.)

The Functional Trainer features two adjustable arms, which can be adjusted for virtually any training position. Each pulley swings independently of the machine to match the line of pull. In addition to its already space-saving design, the unit can either stand alone or be floor-mounted.

Noel Rahn brings 35 years of hockey experience to the Velocity Training Center. He has owned and operated the Velocity Hockey Center for the past 13 years. Under Rahn's ownership, Velocity has designed and developed three (3) of the country's top Hockey Training facilities in Edina, Eden Prairie and Osseo/Maple Grove. These world-class facilities are suited for athletes of all skill levels and genders, both on and off ice.

Rahn grew up playing his youth hockey in Edina where he played all 3 years of Varsity hockey. During his junior season his Edina hornets won the Minnesota State High School Hockey Title in 1988. Following high school, Rahn went on to play at the University of Wisconsin where he won the National Championship his freshman season. His final two years of WCHA hockey he played for the St. Cloud State Huskies. During that time, Rahn was drafted by the Quebec Nordiques in the 1989 NHL Entry Draft.

After his playing days, Rahn became a player agent with his brother-in-law Brian Lawton who is a former GM of the Tampa Bay Lightning of the National Hockey League. Rahn's duties as an agent for Lawton Sport and Financial included recruiting and identifying talent at all levels around the world. During Noel's employment many of the young prospects he represented are currently playing or played in the NHL. Noel was monumental in developing the agency which was later sold to Octagon.

Most recently, as an NHL amateur scout for the Phoenix Coyotes and Minnesota Wild, Rahn focused on scouting prospects in the High School, Major Junior, and College ranks around the world.

Coach Rahn is currently very active in coaching and assisting many of his Boys and Girls AAA teams at the Velocity Hockey Center. He has coached and developed some outstanding players/teams recently in the "1992", "1996", "1999" and "2002" Boys teams. These teams have won numerous championships at the INVITE levels. Many of his players have gone on to play Juniors, Division I College or are currently playing Varsity Hockey at a very young age.

Noel has a variety of experiences instructing as well as coaching all levels of hockey ranging from youth hockey to High School Hockey to College Hockey all the way to the NHL.

Currently Coach Rahn is the Head Varsity High School Boys Coach at Holy Family Catholic School. In his first 9 seasons at Holy Family he has posted an impressive 169-64-4 record. Holy Family currently plays AA hockey and is in the tough Section 2AA.

Since teams are assembled and we are attached to Braemar Arena, the convenience factor alone makes it a good fit. Dryland training is important and I wanted to share some info how I can help. There are numerous reasons why in season training for hockey is important but there are a few that need to be touched on that might turn up the volume to your interest.

First, we need to clarify the dry-land label. An industry standard definition of dry land “Hockey” training many times is busy work after practice in hopes to get stronger, faster and more powerful. In the case of in season training it's how the work is implemented not necessarily what is being done. With the proper rest and attention to quality reps of specific movements, there will be a desired training effect.

We all know that once practices have started, the athlete will be sore as the body is adapting to the desired fitness and conditioning necessary to perform the task. Once the body is adapted, the body is no longer sore and can tolerate the demands of practice. Once the games are added, (the addition of adrenaline to performance) there is another period of “soreness” that the body again must adapt too. Once the athlete has played a few games, again the body has adapted and is no longer sore (obviously this is depending on the contact, and game demands). The body eventually will accumulate the stressors and has adapted. Soon the wear and tear of the long season stressor will eventually hinder the performance of the athlete and team. This is where in season training becomes such a valuable tool.

When you are in season, you cannot do extra conditioning on Wednesday so you’re in better shape Friday. The body does not work that way in season. What you can do is along with the introduction of practice, you can add to it in season “Dryland” training. This is just another stress to the body that you will be sore from and then adapt too. As the season progresses, and the team becomes sluggish and worn down, you don’t want to eliminate or shorten practice (just yet), so you can systematically and gradually pull away from the dryland training. If you implement in-season training, it allows you to have something to eliminate for better recovery. The bonus of the in-season work is getting all the benefits of the “Bigger, stronger, faster and quickness” components.

In Season Training Components:

1. Speed and acceleration Drills

2. Cone, Agility, Footwork Drills

3. Lower & Upper Body Eccentric, Isometric, Concentric strengthening

4. Core stability, Rotational range of motion and Diaphragm Strengthening

5. Shoulder, Hip, elbow and knee pre-hab for injury prevention

6. Postural strengthening to avoid the injury potential due to kyphosis from hockey

7. Plyometric and Assisted Acceleration exercises, (Jumps, box jumps, medicine ball throws)

If this is what you are looking for, we can work together on having a great season.
