How does your body shape impact your golf swing? In this episode of The Golf Intervention, we sit down with Dr. Mike Kay to explore the science behind body types (wide vs. narrow), relative motion, and how they influence speed, efficiency, and overall performance.

Dr. Mike Kay is a Doctor of Physical Therapy with extensive expertise in biomechanics and athletic performance. He specializes in helping golfers optimize movement, increase speed, and prevent injuries through advanced training methods. He has a PT office in Scottsdale, AZ and also partners with Tony Greco and Chris Walkie at the Helix Golf Institute in North Murrieta, CA.  

We dive deep into:
✅ The differences between wide and narrow body structures and their effect on your swing mechanics
✅ How relative motion can help you move more efficiently and generate power
✅ Why "stability" is overrated in golf performance
✅ The who, what, when, where, why of speed training programs
✅ Practical takeaways to help you optimize your golf swing based on YOUR body type

If you want to swing faster, move better, and gain a competitive edge, this episode is packed with insights that can take your game to the next level.
