Jason is one of the first guys that really made an impact on me as a golf fitness professional. From my first experience of his presentation style and personality at the TPI Leel 2 Fitness Professional course when I met him, I have been a huge fan. Not only is Jay extremely entertaining, but he constantly has his finger on the pulse of the newest and most effective strength and conditioning research for the golfer.
