Army Westpoint Commit and Goaliesource Creator Matt Chess – LGR Episode 60

By Coach Damon

Posted In: Podcast

Scrolling through Instagram Matt Chess saw a problem. Too many clips of goalies getting scored on. Where’s the goalie love?

So he created @GoalieSource (along with his buddy Nico, a Villanova commit) to give us what we want. Sweet sweet goalie content!

Matt is a 2024 commit to D1 lacrosse at Army West Point. As a current high school senior we discuss his journey with the position up to this point.

The highs, the lows, and the amount of work required to make it to a top tier D1 program as a goalie.

Matt is a great guy and I’m sure you’re going to learn a thing or two listening this conversation.

Guys, I’m sorry I haven’t been super active this week. I’ve been focused on the season starting next week but I guarantee I’ll start posting daily again. ••• Here are just a few solo drills I was doing today after my lift.

#Repost @goaliefactory “Workout Wednesday Episode 9: 2 Cone Drill Breakdown: For those keeping track at home, in Episode 5 we compared keeping our chest and feet squared to playing Shortstop. The purpose of this drill is to have precise 45° steps and limit overstepping. Tip: There are multiple variations to the stepping pattern you can take. Today, we chose to pick up, reset and put down – but you can also go rapid fire to both sides.” #GoalieFactory #TrackReactRefocus ••• This is a complete repost, but damn @goaliefactory has some fire 🔥 drills so go check them out!

Goalie specific lifting: In this exercise, drive with your top hand and push off your back foot, stepping with only your lead foot. Keep weight relatively light to protect against shoulder injury. This is not a muscle building exercise, rather a mobility exercise to increase hand speed. Mimic ONLY high shots with this one. Keep your bottom hand in sync with your top hand. ____ Do you do goalie specific lifting?
