I haven’t played golf in 3 years.

I only play about once every 3-4.

I played 18 yesterday as part of an outing for my cousin’s bachelor party (great day). 🏌🏻‍♂️

You would have thought that I played as much as the rest of the group. 👀

Not that they were bad because they weren’t. In fact, we had some really solid golfers in the group.

Disclaimer: I am not saying I was the best on the course.

But, even without playing in 3 year…I was hitting straight drives consistently.

Not Happy Gilmore or anything, but leaving me setup nicely for the 2nd stroke.

And approach shots were spot on. 🎯

Even my putting looked decent.

While other guys were complaining of back and shoulder pain after the round…

I was fresh and still am today. 💪🏻

So, how is it that at 40 years old, I can play good golf every 3 years, pain free, without without actually playing golf that often?

Rotation 🌀 and stability 💪🏻

👉🏻 Rotational training that integrates upper and lower body by coupling and spiraling

👉🏻 Isometric work with and without rotation to build strong joints and connective tissues

👉🏻 Consistent movement every day (10-15 minutes) that primes my body for performance

The same principles I teach for boxing apply to golf.

Rotation not only produces force…it directs it.

Then, if you’re interested we put together a program based entirely on what you can do, and what you want to be able to do. 💪🏻🧠

Lobster ties and laughs going on in class today. 🦞

Take time to make people smile. It might just put a smile on your face too.

This simple strength and mobility flow addresses spinal and scapular mobility, rotational strength, and joint stability.

Comment FLOW and I’ll send you a video breakdown👇🏻

“I don’t have time.”👇🏻

Excuse.

“I’m not making the best use of my time.”

Accountability.

“I don’t know where to start!”

Understandable.

Let me help you.👇🏻

The tools are the movements themselves. Performed the right way for the appropriate amount of time (per the individual), movement builds strength, repairs damage, creates balance, clarity and coordination.

You have, at the very minimum, 10 minutes in your day to move your body with intent.

Your body is a gift only given once.

Move on your time.

👉🏻 Comment “CHANGE” and let me help you get on the path. I’ll reach out and let you know how it works.

I really like the slow bear crawl for mechanical strength and stability.

You are stabilizing your shoulders, spinal erectors, hips, knees and ankles, oh my!

The brief bilateral hold engages your cross body slings, and forces the opposite shoulder and hip to stabilize through controlled movement.

Try the slow bear crawl for 45 seconds.

Go 3-4 moves forward and 3-4 back until time is up.

Rest 1 min and repeat 2-3 times for a great full body activation.

Go for 4-5 if you want a burn 🔥

👉🏻 If you are new to quadrupedal movement and want an easier move to start with, try shoulder taps (2nd one in the video) for the same time.

👉🏻 If you want to start building your strength, balance and coordination and are interested in 1:1 coaching👇🏻

👉🏻 Shoutout to Athletic Brewing Co for the non-alcoholic IPA 🍻

A real nice post workout treat.

Can you do the “impossible sit-up?”

Let me know in the comments👇🏻

Thanks Kenya and Kairo Malgas for the challenge!

Movement doesn’t take…

It gives.

It gives us time to be present,

Opportunity to grow,

In strength and in range,

In all that we know.

Movement doesn’t take…

It gives.

It gives us a chance to correct,

Imbalance and poor choice.

To express yourself fully.

Without raising your voice.

Movement doesn’t take…

It gives.

Movement is both a way to express yourself and influence the world around you…

As well as a way to let external forces influence and strengthen you.

In body, mind and heart 💪🏻🧠💜

Be mindful of where the influence is coming from…

And be mindful of your output.

Make the most of your time.

Move on Your Time

Comment SWISS26 and I will
send you a free Swiss ball
routine to help you👇🏻

Improve core tension, elasticity, joint integrity and athletic performance. 💪🏻🧠

If you don’t have access to a Swiss ball, but you still want to build strength, balance and coordination👇🏻

Comment BODYWEIGHT and I will send you a routine that only requires your body and 15-20 minutes. 🔥

You will feel better…

At least I do. 🤷🏼‍♂️

This will stretch your hamstrings, decompress your hips and open up your shoulders.

It’s going to alleviate tension in your lower and upper back.

You can do it on any counter height surface.👇🏻
