>>My new book, The Wicked Smart Golf Fitness Formula, is live to help you master golf fitness for longer drives, more energy, and avoiding injuries.

If you want to hit the ball farther, avoid injuries, gain stamina, and play your best golf for decades—not just next season—The Wicked Smart Golf Fitness Formula is your roadmap.

Written by +2 handicap golfer, 3X author, fitness enthusiast, and performance coach Michael Leonard, this book takes a no-nonsense approach to golf fitness. No gimmicks. No complicated science. Just a proven formula built from years of training, interviewing experts, and applying real results on the course.

Whether you feel out of shape, inconsistent late in the round, or stuck at the same distance year after year, improving your fitness is a reliable way to transform your golf game—without changing your swing.

Inside, you'll learn how to train like a golfer, move like an athlete, and build a body that supports powerful, consistent golf.

What You'll Discover Inside....

Pillar I: Strength Training Build functional strength that translates directly to the golf swing. Learn how to train smarter—not harder—with golf-specific exercises, simple routines, and power-building strategies.

Pillar II: Cardio for Golfers Develop endurance that lasts all 18 holes (and beyond). Improve energy, boost conditioning, lower fatigue, and finish rounds strong with cardio methods designed specifically for golf.

Pillar III: Peak Performance Habits Unlock mobility, flexibility, recovery, and sleep tactics to help you move pain-free and feel your best. Learn how to warm up properly, prevent injury, and create a body built for long-term performance.

Pillar IV: Nail Your Nutrition Fuel your body for power, focus, and consistency. Discover simple golf nutrition strategies, hydration tips, smart supplementation, and easy habits that improve performance on and off the course.

Pillar V: Speed Training Learn how to safely increase swing speed using proven drills, overspeed training concepts, and power-building routines. Add yards to your driver without sacrificing accuracy.

You'll Also Learn How To:

• Improve daily energy, focus, and recovery
• Reduce stiffness, pain, and overuse injuries
• Add 10–20+ yards through proper speed training
• Create a personalized golf fitness plan you'll actually follow
• Build consistency by upgrading sleep and recovery routines
• Eat for performance, energy, and fat loss—without rigid diets
• Build golf workouts that increase strength, stamina, and mobility

You don't need to train like a bodybuilder. You don't need hours in the gym. And you definitely don't need to overhaul your swing.

You need a simple, sustainable fitness system built for golfers. One that helps you hit it farther, feel better, and play your best—season after season. With a proper golf fitness plan, you'll learn how to train for life. Whether you're 18, 38, or 58, this system will help you build golf strength for longer drives, avoid injuries, and have more energy than ever.

Whether you're a scratch player or just getting started, The Wicked Smart Golf Fitness Formula gives you everything you need to become a stronger, faster, healthier, more consistent golfer. Stop wasting time in the gym or pounding the pavement. Start training like an athlete so you can play golf for decades to come.
