Today we have a short episode where i answer a few questions.

1. With golf, how would you train the fascia/functional lines for an efficient pivot? Curious to also get your description of the pivot, rib cage movement, loading into the hip joint.

2. I have read or heard that after stretching there can be a short-term decrease in strength. Is this true, and if so is it significant? What’s the best way to stretch before a round of golf?

why do I train and challenge myself?

I will never be a professional powerlifter but I still pursue strength.

I will never be a professional long drive competitor but I still pursue speed, power, and distance.

I will never be a bodybuilder but I still pursue muscular development.

I will never be a pro golfer but I still work to better my game.

I will never be a pro athlete at any sport but I still throw, kick, crawl, sprint, jump, and explore movement on a regular basis.

WHY?

Because at 37 if I don't I will slowly start losing those abilities.

As a father, I don't want any limitations of what I can physically do with my kids

As a man, I want to be able to lift, push, pull and carry heavy things without issue

As a golfer, I still want to compete and play as much as I want without issue

As someone, who struggles with mental health these pursuits are a big part of my therapy.

I want to be able to do the things at 47, 57, 67, 77 and beyond that, I can do now if not better.

IF YOU ARENT CONSTANTLY CHALLENGING YOURSELF YOU ARE GOING BACKWARDS.

BUT DONT FORGET IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START?

DO YOU NEED HELP, GUIDANCE, ACCOUNTABILITY, KNOWLEDGE THEN I CAN HELP.

These are my thoughts based on a question posed by

Mike Makher

In the close to 15 years I have been practicing as a PT and Strength Coach this is the approach I find myself using

Much more simplistic in all aspects of evaluation, testing and treatment. LESS IS MORE

Less tissue and specific dx based approach

More focused on encouraging movements and activities the patient or client can do rather than on their limitations

More focused on finding ways to load and challenge patients/clients day 1 especially in the basic movements of squat, lunge, hinge/lift, push, pull and carry

Much less manual and when it is used I try to make sure the proper narrative accompanies it

More focused on the subjective portion of the evaluation, active listening, asking open-ended questions, etc

Less focused on the objective gather some basic info, rule out red flags and get to work

More focused on simple home programs, motivation and habit building around all aspects of their health

Keep the goal the goal (Thanks to Dan John) Everything I put in a program should have a clearly defined reason and connection to patients wants, needs and goals

Don't take your patient's success or lack of success personally. Give them all of the credit for their wins and when they falter pick them back up but don't blame yourself if you truly did your best

TAKE THESE HOW YOU WANT BUT THEY ARE JUST MY THOUGHTS
