Want to play better golf?

The distance a golfer hits the ball is no measure of the quality of golf, long hitting is not better golf, a players handicap will take care of the distance he hits the ball, better golf is achieved with accurate shots.

Thats true tgeezer I'm glad you brought that up- more distance is just one factor that determines improved golf. It is however one factor that the majority of golfers strive to do.

Golf fitness focuses on the entire body, conditioning to enhance and improve on specific physical limitations of each individual which are identified during the TPI assessment. Our programs also ensure:

Better Muscle Synchronization

Better Strength at Address

Better Stability

Better Distance

Better Transfer of Power

Better Shoulder Turn

Better Flexibility

Better Golf!

The key to improving consistency is by training the nervous system and muscular system to produce consistent reproducable swing mechanics.

Getting players into better positions which with poor flexibility through specific swing planes, instability and lack of strength will ultimately lead to poor swing mechanics, reduced power, many swing faults and a poor result.

Correct warm up prior to your round, drills and exercises that dont mimic the golf swing, but work on specific phyical requirements of the sports.

Golf is a very complex sport, and under research and analaysis is similar to that of baseball. Where maximal effort must be exerted at impact for maximum speed, velocity and power.

These all occur through multiple planes of movement, which need to be conditioning accordingly for, as you say, consistency. Which is fundamental to playing better golf.

Correct swing mechanics will also reduce and prevent injuries, be reducing overcomensation lods of weaker more fragile joints that should be under such stress (such as shoulders, lower back and wrists).

Hope that helps!

I am sure that you are right. I have just put my 'five eggs' forward in the H&F board and couldn't help thinking that you are on an uphill slope with golf; Looking at performance on the golfcourse I think that being a 'lardball' is a positive. Plenty of stability, strength (weight) and a complete lack of flexibility contribute hugely to consistency. At address the arms are nicely 'sandbagged' on the gut gives great 'connection'. I always try to think 'FAT' when I am addressing the ball.
