ExteIs there anything better than ending US Open week on Father’s Day?
I’ll already be looking forward to next year at Pebble as soon as the winners walk off the final green on Sunday.
Now, down to business…
I know a lot of golfers who are “in shape.”
They go to the gym three or four days a week.
They walk on the treadmill.
They lift weights.
And yet they still struggle to rotate.
Their backs get tight after a round.
They lose distance every year.
They have no feel for their swing.
Why?
Because being in shape and being athletic are not the same thing.
You can have strong muscles and still move poorly.
You can have great endurance and still lack power.
You can spend hours in the gym and never improve the way your body actually performs on the course.
Athleticism is different.
Athleticism is the ability to move efficiently and produce force when you need it.
It’s mobility.
Balance.
Stability.
Coordination.
Strength.
Power.
All working together.
That’s why the goal at 18STRONG is not to simply help golfers exercise more.
The goal is to help golfers move like athletes again.
Because golf isn’t a game of isolated muscles.
It’s a full-body, violent, athletic movement repeated time and again over the course of a round.
And the better your body moves, the easier the game becomes.
You may not be trying to win the club championship.
But I bet you’d like to hit it farther.
Play more rounds.
And finish 18 holes feeling strong.
That’s athleticism.
And the good news is, athleticism can be recaptured at any age.
STAY STRONG,
Jeff
PS – The best place I know to start recapturing the athleticism you had when you were younger is the 18STRONG Membership.
No, it’s not the fountain of youth.
But, you will start moving like you know you should. rnal
