VIDEO OF THE MONTH
GET READY TO GET FIT... FOR GOLF!
In the past, golf has been viewed as a relaxing way the "inactive population" spend a day. It's the perfect sport with little athletic ability needed and no grueling off and pre-season training. That is most likely why golf has recently become on of America's favorite pastimes…if you can spend the time! There are now over 28 million people, almost 20% of our population playing golf yearly. Golfers are everywhere and wearing everything!Times are definitely changing! If we take a look back at the body types of many professional golfers in history. Fitness was NOT a focus…and, at the time, really didn't seem to be needed.
Now as we look at what is happening to the bodies of the pros, we see more athletic builds and weight loss throughout the entire tour. From baby boomers to the younger generations alike, no matter what age, aesthetics may not entirely be the focus, but function and fitness definitely are!If you want to play better golf today, you practice by swinging the club a bunch of times and whacking a lot of balls. If you want to continue to play better golf tomorrow and years down the road, then it's time to get on the cutting edge of the fitness movement. Get out of your comfort zone and put the extra effort in to fine tune your body.

This is Greg. Greg has been training with us since January 2006....that is 13 years! Go Greg!
Greg comes from a sprinting background at The University of Arizona. Back then (40 years), there was no assessment. All athletes were grouped together for static stretching, a few high kicks, and groin stretches.. then they were ready to run.
A lot of compensations and engrained movement patterns can take place. And it will show up in inconsistent golf swings and injuries.
Sure, Greg has a lot off muscle mass on him and we focus on a lot of compound movements to help boost the metabolism. But, Greg will be the first to admit that the Pilates Reformer is by far his nemesis.

I learned the Surf The Knees technique during the Tathata Golf School & Movement Specialist program. It is #6 in the Body Movements Routine.
It was one of the best techniques I have learned when transferring energy toward my target AND into the ground when maximizing power production.
Call it a swing thought....
At the #terravitagc Power clinic I passed the information on to some eager golfers looking for more club gear speed utilizing their bodies.
Try it! SURF THE KNEES

No body wants to see that! Lol.
Quick hip flexor stretch to aid your golf swing when you start feeling tight in your hips and are unable to extend your upper body away from your lower body. Remember to engage or tighten your glute muscles of your buttocks as well as your core to prevent hypermobility.
