Play The Best Golf Game Of Your Life!

A Results-Oriented Strength & Flexibility Program For Great Golf!

How would you like to be able to impress your buddies on the golf course with a better game and drives that will leave them in awe?  And, feel better overall, with more energy, more flexibility, and a few less extra pounds?


  
There's nothing like a beautifully hit tee shot on a par 4,  straight down the fairway, landing right where you want it to.  Imagine having the control and confidence to be able to perform this way on just about every hole you play.  And at the same time, you can feel great all the time because you're in top physical shape.

As a golfer, you may not realize you can increase your enjoyment of the game and improve your performance by following a simple, but effective strength training and stretching program.  At Genesis Personal Fitness, we offer our Genesis Golf-Fit Program to those individuals who want to being able to drive the ball farther with more power, increase their club head speed, and enhance their shoulder/hip flexibility.

Strength Training & Stretching: A Double Eagle For Stellar Golf Scores

Research over the last 10 years clearly demonstrates that specific strengthening exercises, combined with precision stretching, produces a more powerful and controllable golf swing.  Genesis Personal Fitness clients not only report increases in their club head speed, but also improvements in their driving distance.  Our Genesis Golf-Fit Program includes:

  • Strength training - critical in creating maximum torque for improved club head speed and driving distance, as well as to protect the lower back from overuse injuries.  Strength training the muscles not only helps provide stability in golf swings, but it also prevents injuries to the shoulders and the knees. Muscle strength is the key to producing greater movement force to propel the ball.

  • Flexibility training - an "essential" for the golfer.  Plain and simple, if a golfer has muscle imbalances and lacks flexibility surrounding one or more joint complexes, there will be a compensation for this imbalance in other areas and joints of the body.  Over time and years of golfing, this can create a disaster (for example: a rotator cuff tear). 

  • Cardiovascular training - important to help maintain concentration and energy levels.  Golf is an athletic event that can take several hours to complete.  With poor cardiovascular conditioning, the golfer will lose concentration and focus, and guess what... you simply get tired and subsequently finish the game poorly.
