For years, the importance of strength training for golfers was maligned or dismissed. But now that more and more golfers have turned to strength training to augment their game with outstanding results, we now know that proper strength training is an absolutely critical factor in improving not only the golfer’s overall fitness level, but in dramatically improving his or her game as well. In Strength Training for Golfers, John Little offers a workout and training schedule specific to the unique fitness needs of the golfer. The result of a successful ten-year study, the Max Contraction™ exercises included in this book specifically target the muscles used in the golf swing to help increase strength, flexibility, and muscle endurance, and add, on average, up to twenty additional yards of distance off the tee.

The term “functional training” has been associated with a fair amount of controversy ever since it became part of the fitness training vernacular more than a decade ago. In Functional Training Anatomy, noted strength and conditioning specialists Kevin Carr and Mary Kate Feit cut through the clutter and misconceptions about functional training and cover all aspects of how to build a purposeful, effective, and efficient program that provides the strength, stability, and mobility you need to support your body in life and in sports. Beginning with a clear definition of what functional training entails, you will learn about the importance of mobility training and its impact on movement quality, performance, and injury reduction. Use the warm-up activities to prepare for high-intensity activities. Use the medicine ball and plyometric exercises to learn to produce and absorb force. Develop power with Olympic lifts, kettlebell swings, and jumping exercises. Improve strength in the upper body, lower body, and core with hip-dominant, knee-dominant, pushing, pulling, and core exercises. See the inner workings of each of the exercises with superb full-color illustrations that show the primary and secondary muscles and connective tissue being used. The detailed instructions for these multiplanar and unilateral exercises ensure you execute each one correctly and safely. The Functional Focus element shows how the exercises translate to specific activities, whether that be an explosive athletic move or simply moving a box. Functional Training Anatomy incorporates traditional and nontraditional exercises and mobility drills that will help you increase functional strength and reduce injury so your body is prepared to support the demands of athletic performance and daily living.

If youve been golfing for any stretch of time, youve probably been exposed to the myth that movement-based functional training and sport-specific exercise can make you a better golfer. Gary Bannister reveals a proven muscle-based alternative that gets better results: proper strength training. A longtime golfer, Bannister has played with some of the worlds greatest champions. He established and coached the mens and womens varsity golf teams at Averett College, and opened South Americas first Nautilus gym, which led him to prepare Venezuelas male and female golf teams for the World Team Amateur Championship in 1986. Bannister advises golfers to build the muscles involved in golf in the most efficient and effective way you can without trying to be specific. That means without trying to duplicate the actions of the golf swing. Only after youve done that should you focus on learning to use that strength to your advantage on the golf course. Filled with golfing anecdotes, rich history, and exercises that will keep you fit, youll be amazed by how much your game improves through Golf Performance Training.

The GYRA Mental Scorecard allows you to measure your performance against your primary competitor – yourself - per shot, per hole.

The first thing to remember about this program, it is not just a book, but a complete course in mind training. To take this course, the person must have an open mind and a huge desire for success. Without desire to be the best you can be in the game of golf, this course is not for you. This course teaches the basic principles over and over with exercises in every chapter. This is not only a course, but a players diary of their goals, practice techniques, on course mental goals during competition. Every player that completes this course will automatically cut 8 to 10 strokes off their game. It is a must you follow each chapter and the exercises for success. This course will repeat until each player understands. The course teaches a player who they really are, controls anger, develops honesty, trust, and confidence. Why spend thousand of dollars on equipment and lessons before we train the mind first? We are teaching backwards the principles of true golf. Yes, there are a lot of great golfers coming up, but each one is understanding the mental side first, starting with Tiger Woods at a very early age. The competition is greater, courses are longer, and thousands of young golfers coming on the seen. Why wait, this is the first and only mental training complete course. Remember, this is not just a book! Time to take charge of your game now. Consider the price of a golf lesson? This course is much more valuable at the same price. You will not be dissappointed.
