Thoracic and hip mobility flows

Stiff mid backs and locked hips steal rotation and force compensations. Try open books, ninety ninety switches, and deep lunge rotations for ten calm breaths per side. Share your favorite flow and help others improve.

Single leg balance progressions

Balance drives centered contact and stable low point. Practice single leg holds, eyes closed, then add gentle club swings. A mid handicapper messaged us after gaining consistency in bunkers using this simple drill.

Posture and neutral spine in address

Neutral spine is performance armor. Hinge from hips, unlock knees, and lengthen the back of your neck. Test with a club along your spine, keeping three contact points while breathing steadily for control.

Strength That Transfers: Golf-Specific Power Without Bulking

Use chest throws, scoop tosses, and step-behind slams to teach the body to sequence ground, hips, and torso. Keep reps crisp, stop before fatigue, and track distance for honest progress over weeks.

Strength That Transfers: Golf-Specific Power Without Bulking

Ground reaction force fuels clubhead speed. Romanian deadlifts and front foot elevated split squats build strong hinges and stable hips. Start light, own positions, then add tempo variations to challenge control.

Pre-Round Warm-Up That Actually Works

Marching lunges, world’s greatest stretch, band pull-aparts, and cat-cow transitions prepare hips, shoulders, and spine. Studies show dynamic warm-ups improve power and accuracy. Try this, then tell us how your first holes felt.

Pre-Round Warm-Up That Actually Works

Wake the glutes and deep core with lateral walks, hip airplanes, and dead bug presses. Ten controlled reps each side are enough. Keep a small band in your bag for effortless consistency anywhere.

Choose combinations of protein, fiber, and slow carbs: jerky and fruit, nuts and yogurt, or a small wrap. Eat every six holes. Tell us your on-course favorite and inspire the community.

Baseline movement screens

Record a simple screen: toe touch, seated trunk rotation, and single leg squat to box. Note range and control. Retest monthly to celebrate progress and spot areas that deserve extra attention.

Micro cycles for busy schedules

Use three day waves: mobility and core, strength and power, recovery and skills. Keep sessions short but focused. If life gets chaotic, shrink time, not intent, to maintain momentum gracefully.

Accountability and community engagement

Share a weekly goal in the comments, tag a practice partner, and subscribe for new sessions every Monday. Community accountability turns intentions into habits and makes the work feel genuinely enjoyable.
