If you haven’t listened to the New Heights podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce, do yourself a favor and check it out.
Those guys are pretty friggin’ entertaining, even if you’re not a huge football fan.
So, I saw a clip yesterday about what NFL players do the day after a game.
I always assumed they took the day off – maybe some active recovery, but to my surprise, they go to the facility and work out!
And they’re not messing around.
They’re putting in a full-blown session.
A guy here asked me how they can possibly workout…”they must be stiff as a board after the punishment of an NFL game.”
And stiff is the state of how I see the majority of golfers who first walk into the gym.
Even the guys who are clearly in shape still move like s***.
We all assume because they are fit that they are mobile.
Wrong.
John Daly’s fitness is a complete trainwreck, but that dude moves like he’s made out of rubber.
To be fair, JD is a natural athletic freak.
So, he’s an extreme example.
But, for the majority of us “garden-variety” athletes, we have to work to stay loose.
And if you’re one of those golfers who needs some mobility love, there are a few things you can do.
Here’s where I would start…
And here’s what NFL players do…
…they grease their joints.
There’s synovial fluid in your joints that we have to get to the right places.
And the best way to do that is about as simple as it gets…
MOVE!
Move your shoulders.
Move your hips.
Move your neck.
Move your trunk…
Get the “grease” moving all around your joints – just like lubing the engine in your car.
For golfers, I can think of no better way to do that than by following the Daily Motion EFD routine in the 18STRONG Membership.
It only takes 5-8 minutes, and you’ll see results by the “Big Game” next Sunday.
And by the time The Masters rolls around in April…fuggit about it…you’ll REALLY notice how loose and free your swing feels.
STAY STRONG,
Jeff

I’ve said it a million times…if you could only do ONE thing to improve your game, that’s what I would do.
