BODY FOR GOLF



I’ve had the pleasure of being asked to write for Golf IllustratedResort Living and the Junior Golf Scoreboard, and I’ve also published 8 best-selling books on golf.
You may have seen some of my work in Atlanta Golfer, SELF magazine, GolfersMd, or a number of other golf related magazines and websites.
You have probably heard me share my wisdom on achieving peak performance in golf in my interviews with ESPN or as a host of my own internet radio show dedicated to golf fitness.
Because of my unparalleled expertise, I was invited to work on the LPGA tour with Jill McGill and Allison Hannah, and oversaw the fitness program at the International Junior Golf Academy. I have also consulted with top college teams including UCLA.
So, I think it’s fair to say that I know a little about golf performance.

Top Golfers and Instructors All Work Together-For the Best Results

 

Here I am in this photo along with famous putting instructor, Mike Shannon from Sea Island, Georgia, and PGA and LPGA golf instructor, Gary Gilchrist from the Gary Gilchrist Golf Academies. We had this photo taken in Bogota, Columbia where we presented and worked with the South American Golf Federation. We presented alongside the ‘local’ and international superstar Camilo Villegas from the PGA Tour.
I’m honored to be a full-time golf training professional for players on tour, and to also train competitive juniors, collegiate golf teams, recreational players and competitive golfers of all levels.
My real passion, and the force that drives me is in helping millions of golfers like you dramatically improve their golf game by revealing the insider secrets that most pros won’t tell you-either because they don’t know or they are too busy working on tour with some of the world’s best players.

Golfers trust me, and they recognize they will never get to the top of their golf game on their own

Just because you can’t reach your full golfing potential on your own doesn’t mean you need to spend thousands of your hard-earned cash on a “local pro golf coach,” when you can get the same (and possibly better) results for 0.03% of the cost.
I’m thirsty for new research and information on increasing golf performance, so I buy every single golfing product that I can get my hands on. While some of the other golf products do contain some useful information, none of them quite share the deep knowledge that I’ve gained from studying the powerful connection between your body and golf performance.
Worst yet, some of the advice the other so-called “golf mastery” products give will actually set you up for failure by giving you injuries that will be a detriment to your golf performance.
Reading a few articles in golf magazines won’t set you up for the fast success you desire.

Discover the PROVEN #1 Secret to INSTANTLY Improving Your Swing and Hit More Explosive Shots

I’ve literally worked with thousands of golfers, and I’ve heard hundreds of the bogus myths that are out there when it comes to improving your game.

The truth is…the pros achieve outstanding results because they use fitness and nutrition programs designed specifically for the game of golf.





Sadly, there are many untruths being told about how to get in shape for golf. In fact, few people even understand the real connection between your body and your swing and how to prepare it for a lifetime of play.  And, not just to play golf, BUT playing golf at peak performance.

You Need a Breakthrough Golf-Specific Program to Get You Results, Fast
The #1 thing competitive and tour golfers have in common is that they ALL engage in golf fitness.
Tour golfers wouldn’t be where they are today if they didn’t understand the vital connection between their level of fitness and their swing.
Just take a look at the living legend, Gary Player, otherwise known as the Black Knight. Gary won nine major championships on the regular tour and six Champions Tour major championship victories, and if that’s not enough to impress you, he also won three Senior British Open Championships on the European Senior Tour. He’s 77, and he’s still unstoppable.
Want to know his secret?
Gary trains extensively using golf-specific workout routines which gives him those long and straight drives that you crave.
Still not convinced?



Tough crowd…
Take a look at Greg Norman, a 58-year old previous golf champ who is the self-entitled pioneer of golf fitness. Greg trains with cutting-edge workout routines specifically designed for golf. In an interview he snarled, “I’m appalled by people who don’t look after their bodies.” Are you one of those people?
I’m bursting at the seams with all of the examples of pros who train in golf fitness. I could talk about this with you for hours.
Let’s take a look at Tiger Woods, shall we? He is ranked number one in the official world golf ranking, he is one of the highest-paid athletes in the world, and he broke a number of golf records. Surprise, surprise, he trains using a specific golf practice routine.
All secrets of success are visible.
As you can see, it’s no secret that you’re not playing at your true potential because you simply don’t yet have the tools to give your body what it needs physically and nutritionally to consistently play an exceptional game of golf.
I’ve spent the past 10 years studying professional golfers and training serious golfers for competitive play. Competitive and tour golfers aren’t any different than you.
Here’s what all golfers are looking for…(yes, even tour players)

Increase drive distance by 15 to 20 yards or more, although many would be happy with an additional 10 yards (just ask a tour player how important a few more yards would be to their game)


These 5 Steps reveal the things you MUST AVOID if you want to play low scoring golf, drop your handicap and achieve your ideal golf body.


Helping you is my life’s work, so I really want to shed some light on why you’re not seeing any real improvements with your game.
Here are just a few reasons why the majority of people don’t ever play to their full potential:



 

Step #1: Take Care of Your Massive Energy Leak

 

 


Golfers have one very powerful center of force and it’s called the core.
The golf swing relies upon core strength, endurance and proper engagement for any kind of reliable distance off the tee. And, it’s just not off the tee, but it can affect every shot you make leading to the green.
Core conditioning is very important for a golfer because all movements in your entire body stem from the strength in this area.
Wherever you find a weak core, you find a major source of energy leaks in the golf swing.
The core is where the body’s center of gravity is located and where force production begins.
Most people have a very weak core, and as a result, chronic posture problems. Over time, this creates wear and tear on the body. A golfer with a weak core is vulnerable to injury and struggles with efficiency in their swing.

 

Step #2: Stop Neglecting the Three Vital Body Parts

 



Can you guess the top 3 areas of concern on the body for most every golfer? That’s right. It’s the shoulders, hips and spine!

Most people don’t know the right techniques to activate their powerful trio.
Every great golf instructor will tell you that your body rotates around your spine. It acts like a pivot point in the golf swing.
Without the correct method of shoulder rotation, you have very little chance of getting your arms in the proper position in your backswing and, sadly, this limits your follow through.
And the hips?
Top players initiate their downswing with the powerful muscles of the abs and hips. Once the desired momentum is generated by the lower body, they use their arm muscles to effectively “fine tune” the swing.
Recreational players, on the other hand, use their arm muscles right at the outset. As a result, they are unable to recruit the latent muscle-power in their lower body, while the arm muscles work extra hard both to power and guide the club. No wonder it leads to an inconsistent swing!

 

Step #3: 99% of Golfers Don’t Know HOW to Get the Right Posture

 




Every golfer is continually in search of that elusive feel of the perfect swing. Books are written on the topic. Instructional videos promising the “secrets of the perfect swing” sell like hotcakes by mail order and on the internet. Everyone everywhere wants to know what they need to do to swing like the pros.
The truth is you’ve been lied to…
There is no “perfect swing” – at least there’s no one method for achieving it.
If we’ve learned anything from years of watching professional golfers showcase their skills in tournaments around the world, it is that the “perfect swing” varies from player to player.
That doesn’t mean the cause is lost and you’ll never find “that” swing. It just means that you have to find “your” swing.
One of the most important components of a good golf swing is your posture at address. If you have poor posture, your search of the perfect swing becomes more challenging.
Once you learn how to start building strength in the right areas, good golf posture will come easy. Then, you need to build endurance so you can repeat the same winning swing, over and over again.

 

Step #4: Amateur Golfers Eat Foods that HINDER Their Game 

 



Golf nutrition is among the most important things you should look after. Do you know it is one of the main culprits of a disastrous back nine?
Poor nutrition affects mental focus and judgment as well as energy management. One minute you’re playing fine and you have a good eye for the target. Next you know, your game is falling apart hole by hole, even stroke by stroke.
You will never play to your true potential if you don’t learn how to eat like a champion with a solid golf nutrition program.

 

Step #5: Stop Engaging in Workouts That Cause Injuries
