    Episode 7: The Core Of Berman Golf 

    What are we actually teaching


    (1:14) What do we specialize in at berman golf? 

    (1:25) we have several cases where golfers are coming in gaining 50 yards off the tee

    (1:50) we specialize in helping golfers over the age of 60 gain distance off the tee.

    (2:00) Jake talks about how he has been working with a client who came in maxing his 7 iron out at 84 yards with a 60mph CHS and today he had a max of 135 yards with a CHS of 63 mph! THATS 51 YARDS WITH HIS 7 IRON!

    (3:00) Adding distance to your game easily takes away the pressure off other parts of your game, as well as your attitude changes.

    (3:38) It’s not all about swinging it fast, it’s about power.

    (3:50) Power is the lowest hanging fruit in aging golfers.

    (4:00) Speed is irrelevant if you don’t have anything behind it. 

    (8:00) We need to focus on using our muscles to generate power, which leads to further drives.

    (10:50) Don't use your hands, use your core!

    (11:00) There are so many moving parts in your golf game.

    (13:00) Stay in your cylinder and establish a good foundation.

    (16:30) Practice makes permanent!

    (17:20) There's no reason why you can't be 75, 85 years old enjoying the game!

    (18:00) Berman Golf changes the way it's supposed to be!

    (19:30) Changing from a defensive player to an offensive player.

    (24:00) One way to think about swinging with your core… Hint:Initiate the backswing and downswing with your Belt Buckle!

    (25:00) Don't think about swinging the club head!!! Relax your hands..

    Episode 6: Why Is The Physical Pillar The Most Neglected Part Of The Game?

    (1:30) Recap of the past episodes, mainly the 4 pillars of golf!

    (2:00) If you want optimal performance you should have equal and optimal pillars (Technical Mental, Physical, Strategic)

    (2:30) Most ammeter golfers focus on their technical pillar, and we need to put that aside for now. Why?

    (3:40) The Mental Pillar is the hardest 6 inches in golf (behind the ears).

    (4:20) The mental pillar is what sets aside the Pros from amateurs…

    (5:30) Most coaches want their golfers who are 50, 60  and 70 years old to get in these specific positions, but simply can't due to their physical limitations, and that’s where we come in! 

    (6:00) The physical pillar is the most neglected pillar in the golf game! 

    (7:30) Most golf coaches are looking for a quick fix, ultimately fixing one problem and creating another.. 

    (10:00) How do we get our players to move the way they are supposed to?

    (10:45) Once your Physical attributes are solid then your golf pros can actually fix your game how they want too! 

    (11:30) At our recent group program at Bears Paw the golf pro said he was amazed because he had never seen his  golfers move so well, which correlated to better golf!

    (12:00) Once you start improving your physical side it's going to lead into everything else.

    (13:50) A $5,000 set of clubs will not change your game without fixing your body!

    (14:40) Start working on your body!

    (19:00) It’s not until we show the golfers we work with what they are missing when they realize what the problem is in their game and then we attack it! Which leads to the best feeling  when they come back to us saying they can play 36 holes in a row, win club championships, and even just take all their friends' money! 

    (20:00) Get your competitive edge back! 

    (22:18) Listen to your body, when you can finish a round without pain or soreness you will hit the ball farther, the ball will go straighter because you are using your body better!

  • Episode 5: What Makes Berman Golf Different From Everyone Else?

    Long Balls Golf Podcast
    Episode 5: What Makes Berman Golf Different From Everyone Else?

    (1:00) What sets us apart from everyone else?

    (1:30) What do we do? We specialize in helping golfers gain distance off the tee.

    (1:45) The reason we are different is because we are not using a technique to gain distance. 

    (2:25) There has not been a single person we have worked with one on one that has not gained significant distance off the tee

    (2:50) The method we use addresses POWER!

    (3:00) A LOT of the people that are trying to teach you golf essentially say the same thing just with different words, that make sense but let’s change it up!

    (4:00) Let's talk about the laws of psychics, it's Scientifically proven!!

    (7:00) Jake talks about a golfer he worked with who swung the club beautifully, but as soon as the club face ran into the ball, because it did not have power behind it, it did not have trajectory.. This is where it started.

    (8:00) Just because you swing something faster does not mean the ball will go father 

    (8:20) We need to have club head speed AND POWER!

    (8:45) It is not uncommon to gain at least 10 yards just after the first session! How? With activating More muscles to generate more power! 

    (9:45) It's not all about Club Head Speed when gaining distance, it's about power

    (10:30) This method doesn't just fit golfers over 60, it helps golfers of all ages! 

    (11:20) Clayton is a 40 year old golf pro who gained 20 yards with the berman method, which drastically changed his game.

    (12:00) After the age of 60 there's so much more potential for your muscles.

    (13:00) Helping golfers find there muscle efficiency is one of the biggest aspects of increasing your power and distance 

    (14:00) We are helping golfers with golf longevity, playing as much as you want as long as you want without experiencing any frustrating aches and pains.. 

    (14:40) Why do golfers stop golfing? Loss of distance, injury,  and embarrassment.. But it does not have to be this way! 

    (15:40) We want golfers to know they don’t have to give up the game due to aging! 

    (16:50) No one else is doing this, this is something every golfer should know about!

    (17:18) Everyone should want to gain distance!

    Episode 4 : How the Physical Pillar Will Make a Drastic Change in Your Golf Game

    (1:00) Recap of episode 3 

    (2:10) Why are most golfers giving no attention to their physical pillar and only the technical pillar?

    (2:35) How the media is making you only think about technical changes in your game.

    (3:25) Your technical side only goes as far as your physical ability goes.

    (3:50) The Physical pillar is the most important aspect for golfers 50+. WHY? 

    (5:00) Berman Golf’s 100% success rate!

    (6:00) By adding distance off the tee, golfers' games are completely changing.

    (6:45) After getting Gary to move his body better, his carry distance moved from 125-155 consistency. HE GAINED 30 YARDS OF CARY! That's insane! 

    (7:45) How focusing on body mechanics and not technique changed Gary's shot.

    (10:00) Golfers are gaining huge distance in just one session by using the body correctly! 

    (11:00) How the physical pillar will make a drastic change in your golf game

    (11:45) More Power is more distance.. It’s Science! 

    (12:00) After the age of 60 Club Head Speed does not determine distance!

    (14:20) As we age, Club Head Speed is irrelevant without power..

    (15:00) We found the most significant gains occur after increasing power in the golf swing? How? MUSCLES!

    (16:35) Why is momentum killing your golf game? 

    (17:00) Real consistent power is only created through the big muscles. 

    (17:20) What muscles do we need to generate more power in the golf swing? 

    (20:00) By focusing on the important things, everything changes, everything gets more consistent. 

    (21:30) Most golf pros have expectations that golfers simply can’t reach because of their physical limitations in the golf swing..

    (22:00) How does Berman Golf  bridge the gap between physical abilities and the technical aspect of the game.

  • Episode 3: The 4 Pillars of Golf

    For Episode 3,  Dr. Jake Berman (Founder of Berman Golf) and Co Host Jan Cermak go over The 4 Pillars of Golf, discussing where most golfers go wrong in there game and what they need to do to close the gap from being passive golfers to aggressive golfers!

    Episode 3: The 4 Pillars of Golf

    (1:50) What are we focusing on? Helping golfers over the age of 60 increase their distance off the tee! Maximizing their distance anywhere from 20-30 yards and drastically changing the way they approach the game of golf.

    (2:40) Changing the way we approach the green or even approach a par 5, we are simplifying everything you need to transform your game and going from passive golfers to aggressive golfers!

    (3:30) Being able to switch from playing defensively to offensively can completely change your game! Defensive golf could leave you to not commit on your next shot, which leads to thick shots and slices.. 

    (5:00) Playing offensive golf allows you to attack the pin and commit to the shot that will give you a higher chance of success!

    (6:25) For our clients, by increasing the distance off the tee and helping them hit the drive longer, they feel less pressure from other aspects of the game, leaving them to play more aggressively and more freely.

    (6:30) What are the 4 pillars of golf?? There are 4 pillars that contribute to a good round of golf. Think about tires on a race car, if you want optimal performance you want all tires to have equal and optimal tire pressure!

    (9:37) The first pillar of golf is Physical (the body's ability to move), the second pillar is Technical which is the technical aspect of the swing your golf pro can teach you such as grip, setup, swing plane. One of the hardest pillars or “tires” to increase, but the most focused from golfers.. 

    (10:52) Pillar number 3 is Strategic , which is the easiest pillar to improve. It's as easy as going up to the tee box and setting the ego aside, playing with high course management and knowing your club is set up!

    (12:00) The last pillar is the Mental pillar, which is the toughest aspect in golf. You can always sink a putt during practice but when it comes to betting your buddy for 5 bucks, you pull the putt and miss!! Why is this?

    (12:35) The Mental pillar is one of the main reasons you see these guys on tour playing so well, this is because they have the mental capacity to thrive under pressure! 

    (13:10) Out of the 4 pillars the pillar or “tire” that has the lowest amount of capability for our clients over 60 is the Physical pillar, yet so few people focus on it! 

    (14:00) The most common answer when we ask our golfers what they have tried before coming to berman golf is: “golf lessons”, or “youtube”, “I watch the golf channel”.. But the number one thing we hear is that they watch the pros on tour, and that's where they go wrong because they just simply aren't the same age or have the same golfing ability, these guys are freaks and practice 8 hours a day!!

    (21:00) Most guys on tour have the same swing physically but the biggest difference is that metal pillar. If we are looking at the top 100 golfers in the world they will have equal and optimal “tire pressure” or pillars, except the mental pillar… ONLY the top 10 golfers in the world will have all 4 pillars full, equal, and optimal.. And the tires the amateurs have range from golfer to golfer. 

    (22:00) focusing on your mental pillar will increase confidence.

    (23:00) Where we see most of our aging golfers struggle is the physical pillar, which is completely opposite from the pros. We are seeing our golfers want to compete but their body just simply doesn't let them.

  • Episode 2: The Results Are in For Bears Paw Country Club (First Group Program)

    Episode #2 - The Results Are in For Bears Paw Country Club (First Group Program) 
    Star host Jenni Berman!

    (2:06) We will be discussing Jake’s golfers at Bears Paw Country Club that he just wrapped up doing the 12 week GROUP Golf Performance Sessions

    (2:30) It was Jake’s first time doing a group setting. Two groups, one with 5 golfers and the other with 4

    (3:00) There is not one golfer who has gone through the program 1 on 1 and NOT gain distance off the tee, we have 100% success rate

    (3:29) What is the Golf Performance Program?

    (4:29) The amount of weeks is negotiable but it is 24 contact hours

    (4:57) Jake took all of that and what he learned by doing 1 on 1 sessions and applied it toward his first golf group session

    (5:07) The results for Bears Paw are in and they are GOOD!

    (6:16) The max gained distance off the tee was 41 YARDS but his average distance gained was hitting the golf ball 60 yards further off the tee

    (8:30) When we can change the overall average it drastically changes your golf game - for the better

    (8:39) How was all this measured?

    (9:30) More golf statistics from the groups

    (10:09) The average gained distance for all 9 golfers was 18 yards off the tee and 13 yards with the 7 iron

    (10:55) The group sessions aren’t going to be as beneficial as a one on one setting. But the fact we were able to add an average of 18 yards between 9 people is significant

    (12:00) How does someone know if they should go with the individual or group? Depends on how serious you are

    (13:00) If you are a competitive golfer that is frustrated the individual is for you but if you are just looking to add some distance to you golf shot then the group session is for  you

    (13:45) Jenni has 0 interest in playing golf

    (14:03) What does Jake do to help the golfers add distance

    (14:33) Jake is not golf professional, he is just a biomechanics expert

    (15:15) Your golf swing will be different at the end of the program than the beginning of it because your mobility is improving. When you are more mobile you are able to hit the golf ball farther

    (15:40) We are working on getting golfers more flexible, stronger specifically during the golf swing

    (16:00) One golfer entered with a lot of back pain and told us recently that his back pain is basically non existent while he was playing golf - this is due to getting the correct muscles firing

    (17:36) Jake doesn’t want people to think this is an exercise thing. It’s very functional, where you get in the golf stance and just stand there. Now lets work on getting the core and glutes activated and making sure you are balanced.

    (18:28) Jake has had multiple come up to him saying they don’t care if the golf ball goes farther, they just want to play a round without their back hurting, and he always says the same thing, “I help you out with your back but you’re gonna have to accept the farther distance

    (19:30) We are trying to get into a lot more golf clubs this summer. If anyone listening to this is interested in Jake to come to your club on site and do a golf performance session, you need to reach out to him ASAP because we are currently talking with a handful of other clubs.

    (20:07) We want to do a program this summer with at least 2 other clubs. We currently have 3 in the process of getting scheduled. So if we had 5 total this summer, we would be pretty full. 5 is the limit

    (20:28) How do they do that? Reach out to Jake via email [email protected] or call/text 239-431-0232. Reach out THIS WEEK! We are starting June 1st at the absolute latest!

    (22:29) If anyone knows how to get ahold of Tiger, let Jake know, he NEEDS The Berman Method of Golf Performance
