If you have followed our blogs or videos in the past you might have seen me talk about the glutes, butt cheeks, a$$, kings of stability, whatever you want to call it. There is a good reason for it. It comes from science, and experience. In my 15 years of working with golfers, I know for a fact if I can get my client to learn how to fire their glutes, I am going to make them more stable in the lower body. This will help their golf game, their everyday functionality, help them

Shoulder Pain The shoulder is the most complex joint in the body. It has to move through so many planes of motion throughout the golf swing, but what most people don’t realize is that the stabilization of the shoulder is mainly in the posterior of the shoulder and upper back. If your shoulder isn’t stable you will lose range of motion and will eventually add to discomfort, pain, and frustration, because you are forcing it through ranges of motion it should not and/or can not

Knee Pain in Golfers- Why? Knee pain caused by the golf swing is because of tight hips or ankles, but it could also be lack of stability around the knee. If the muscles that supposed to be stabilizing aren’t then we’re going to experience pain at some point. If you’re really trying to get some torque or rotation in the hips or even upper body and your knee joint isn’t stabilized by the thigh muscle or your hamstrings are too tight, that’s when we see the most pain in the knee

The number 1 reason people stop playing golf is………..Lower Back Pain! It’s crazy to think this very common injury, discomfort, pain in the rear would wreak havoc on so many golfers even the best in the world. I can go on and on about Tiger, Jason Day, Rory, and some of the top PGA guys and their lower back, but I’m talking about the desk jockeys, the guys that sit at a desk all week and head to the course Saturday morning and play after a 30 second warm up. Folks lower back pa

One thing I see with my clients is that they suffer from immobility in the shoulders. In the golf swing it is imperative to have good mobility, because the shoulders are forced through rotation and if not flexible we see shoulder injury as well as elbow pain. Check out this video I did back in 2014 at the PGA Tour Superstore in Irvine, that will help the shoulders. #GolfFitnessTraining #injuryprevention

In the past 15 years I have worked with golfers from all walks of life. I’ve seen the 60 -70 year old man that has sat at a desk for the past 30 years, the lady that struggles with distance because her lack of upper body strength limits her ability to generate any clubhead speed. The golfer that works out religiously, but isn’t doing much to help with rotation, and the tour professional that is traveling non-stop and then has to play 6 days a week all while walking. What do t

The most overused and misunderstood word in fitness and now in golf could easily be the “core”. What is the core exactly? Is it a muscle? Is it a group of muscles? How does it help in the golf swing? It is thrown around so loosely that it can be confusing to most. Ask 10 different fitness professionals and you may get 10 different answers. What is the Core? Like I said ask 10 get 10, so here is mine. Think of the core of anything, apple core, core of a golf ball. It almost a
