Carey Price Teaches a Dynamic Warm Up
- Carey Price performs a dynamic warm up before every game and practice, consisting of movement-based stretches rather than static holds.
- Foam rolling is a key part of Price's pre-game preparation, which he performs in the Montreal Canadiens locker room before taking the ice.
- Price has taught this warm up routine to young goalies at Eli Wilson Goaltending's annual Day with Price camp since 2015.
- Goalie fitness specialist Maria Mountain also leads a dynamic warm up at the camp, bringing goalie-specific training expertise to complement Price's routine.
- Mountain's free 14-day butterfly challenge app includes foam rolling and foot rolling exercises consistent with techniques observed in Price's own warm up.
