In this episode of Golf Fitness Bomb Squad, host Chris Finn discusses the relationship between strength training and golf performance, particularly focusing on how much weight golfers need to lift to gain speed. He shares insights from extensive research conducted with over 15,000 golfers, emphasizing the importance of strength thresholds and the diminishing returns of excessive lifting.
