Listen Later

In this episode of the Fairway Performance Podcast, I discuss how to build a golf fitness program tailored to individual needs. I talk about the importance of understanding the intersection of fitness and golf performance, outlining a phased training approach which includes foundational strength, strength training, and speed development. I also highlight the significance of scheduling workouts and maintaining consistency for long-term success in golf fitness.

Things You Will Takeaway:

  • The foundation of golf fitness is understanding how physical fitness impacts performance.
  • Training should focus on mobility, strength, and power specific to golf.
  • Beginners should prioritize foundational training to build strength and coordination.
  • A phased approach to training helps structure workouts effectively.
  • Scheduling workouts around personal commitments enhances consistency and motivation.
  • Strength training can improve power and speed in golf swings.
  • Mobility work is essential to prevent injuries and improve performance.
  • Each golfer's training program should be individualized based on their experience level.
  • Consistency in training leads to better results over time.
  • Mental shifts, like viewing workouts as opportunities, can enhance commitment.
