What is Golf Fitness Training in Golf?

Physical conditioning programs specifically designed to improve the movement patterns and physical attributes needed for golf.

Full Definition

Golf fitness training focuses on: rotational power (medicine ball rotational throws, cable rotations), hip mobility (90/90 hip stretch, hip CARs), thoracic mobility (foam rolling, thread-the-needle), posterior chain strength (hip thrusts, Romanian deadlifts, single-leg variations), core stability (dead bug, Pallof press, anti-rotation work), and balance training (single-leg exercises, balance board work). Contra-indicated training: excessive static stretching before play reduces power output; excessive hypertrophy training without mobility work reduces rotation range. The TPI (Titleist Performance Institute) body-swing connection model links physical limitations to swing faults — hip mobility restrictions cause early extension, thoracic restrictions cause flat shoulder plane. GOATY identifies the mechanical patterns that correspond to specific physical limitations.
