In the last 70 years, even with the advent of computerized training programs and quantum leaps in equipment technology, research has shown that golfers at all levels have not improved their scores or their handicaps. The missing element has been the introduction of golf specific strength and flexibility training. Now referred to as golf fitness

The golf swing is a very complex and highly athletic movement, often performed by folks who lack the fitness and flexibility to execute it correctly.

Golfers who lack the physical ability to perform a golf swing correctly will over compensate with movements that, when repeated often enough, will destroy the joints and associated tissues.

Many improper swings are due to the inability of a golfer to turn the pelvic and shoulder girdles. Just ask your golf Pro, what is the most important and most frustrating part of his teaching curriculum. Compensating for this shortcoming leads golfers to improvise with movements that cause excessive stress to the knees, hips, shoulders, elbows and wrists.

Studies show that fully half of all amateur golfers, both male and female, suffer from some kind of back pain. And the pros are not immune. Thirty percent of all professional golfers are playing with back pain at any given time. It was the original reason that professionals first engaged fitness trainers. That is, until they recognized the marked improvement in their scores.

Golf fitness will have a much greater value than just being fit for golf.  The golf fitness program will mean a stronger, more flexible and healthy you.
