Testimonials
Vyacheslav Makritsky
Head S&C Coach of the "Avangard" Omsk (KHL, Russia)
"The Encyclopedia of Testing is a very cool book that contains the most relevant tests for hockey and other sports. Personally, this book helped me determine the battery of tests for the season, since in the modern world there is not much useful information in this area, especially filtered and collected in one place"
Ilya Yakovlev
Development Coach of the "Ak Bars" Kazan (KHL, Russia)
"I've read the book If you want to retire from hockey - destroy your body twice. It is very easy to read. All information is easy to remember. After completing each chapter, you realize how much knowledge you have acquired. I am sure the book will bring a lot of benefits to both coaches and active athletes"
Bogdan Rybachuk
Assistant coach of the "Dynamo-Molodechno" (Betera-Extraleague, Belarus)
"After reading the book, you will raise your knowledge in the field of testing athletes to a higher level. Its author, Vlady Zankavets, has very competently and informatively packed into 456 pages all possible tests that are used in hockey. Everything is sorted into sections, each test is described in detail. It doesn't matter if you are a peewee coach or a coach of a professional team, you will find a lot of new and useful information. Also it is worth noting that there are very few such books in the post-Soviet space, so the value of this book increases several times. Thanks for the work!"
