Golf: An Easy Game That’s Hard to Play! 

Golf has traditionally been thought of as a game. A gentlemen’s game at that. And all you needed to be good at golf was:

      • Good clubs
      • Good instruction
      • Good practice
      • Good luck….

“Unfortunately, this common misperception too often leads to injury or premature performance plateaus.” __Paul Chek, Author of the Golf Biomechanic’s Manual

To set the record straight, golf isn’t just a game, it’s a sport. If you play a sport you are an athlete and therefore should train like an athlete.

    • The reality is that the amount of force it takes to hit a golf ball is equivalent to hitting a slap shot in hockey, hitting a baseball, a serve in tennis, or a boxer’s punch.
    • What do all these sports have in common?  They are all rotational sports that require the athlete to transfer force from the ground up. This is what’s known as the kinematic sequence. It is the progressive transfer of energy from the lower body, into the torso, shoulder, arms, club, and finally the ball.  “Hitting the golf ball using the proper Kinematic Sequence is one of the 3 Keys To Creating Power and Consistency and it’s something most amateur golfers struggle with!”_Brett The Golf Guy
    • Why? In short, it requires adequate mobility in the hips and thoracic spine (which is lacking in the average amateur). The average amateur golfer spends most of the day in a chair and has been for decades! Then they want to get up and rotateexplosively and repetitively, from Friday through Sunday, from May through November (without training).   
    • That’s just not going to work out so well! If you’re an amateur golfer, the first place you should look to improve your game is your own body. Golf requires a certain amount of athleticism.
    • To Play Golf Well You need:
      • flexibility
      • mobility
      • stability
      • strength
      • power
      • balance
      • postural strength endurance

 

You can’t buy those in the pro shop!

  • You can only get those qualities from training in the gym and it’s going to take hard work! Any and every great athlete puts in a lot of work…  The fact is most golfers’ bodies don’t work the way they need to – to play golf the way they want to.
