Whether you golf casually or competitively, everyone would like to improve their game. Taking lessons or hiring a swing coach will help you learn the mechanics of a good golf swing, but researchers at the Titleist Performance Institute have shown that many golfers are limited not by their technique, but by underlying movement dysfunctions.
Poor golf swings can be caused by a variety of physical limitations, including mobility restrictions, lack of muscle strength, and/or poor balance/stability. In order to improve your game, you must train your body to accommodate the motions of golf.
Ryan Burke, One on One’s TPI Certified Golf Fitness Professional, is highly qualified to help you identify and correct areas of physical dysfunction that influence your golf game.
“First, we evaluate your movement capabilities with the TPI Golf Screen” says Ryan. “This comprehensive series of tests measures the movement capabilities of your body, testing hip mobility, shoulder rotation, spinal stability, and a wide range of other movements and skills involved in golf. Ultimately, the screen helps us identify movement or strength restrictions that can cause you pain or weaken your game.”
“After we’ve diagnosed any movement dysfunctions, we will design a fitness program that is specific to you and your golf game. Your fitness program can consist of gym-based workouts, “To Go” programs, and pre-/post-game routines. Together, the TPI screen and One on One’s comprehensive fitness programming will give you your best chance to improve flexibility, stability, strength, power, and ultimately your golf game.”
