Chad Moreau begins his second season as the team’s Strength and Conditioning Consultant. He is responsible for developing and implementing all aspects of strength, conditioning and nutrition for players throughout the organization.

The brother of Oilers forward Ethan Moreau, Chad has developed the off-season conditioning program that is followed by the Edmonton players. During the past several off-seasons a group of Oilers players have spent the summer in southern California training under Moreau’s supervision.

Moreau was a member of the University of South Carolina Track & Field team for four seasons between 1992 and 1995 and earned three letters (1993-95) while with the Gamecocks. Following his graduation from South Carolina with a honours degree in Exercise Science, he enrolled in the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic in Whittier, California and graduated Magna Cum Laude and was the President’s Award recipient for outstanding leadership in 1998. In 2000 he was awarded a certified Strength & Conditioning specialty and a certified Chiropractic Sports Practitioner qualification. These post-graduate certifications have allowed him work with a number of elite athleties in a variety of sports, including the Oilers and the Long Beach Ice Dogs of the ECHL.

An assistant professor of biomechanics at the Southern California University of Health Services, Moreau has published a number of research articles pertaining to sports training.
