Start Here
If you are new to the Lab, welcome! You have made the choice to level up your golf game and COMMIT to improving your body to improve your game. We are your 15th club in your bag. This community is a group of golfers committing to building their bodies to play longer and perform better. First, check out the welcome video on the Classroom tab. It will walk you through the programs on offer and how to access them. Many of the courses are set up to be something you can use in the gym. If you would like to book a call to learn more about our full Pain-To-Power transformation program, Click Here Do You Have Pain? - I can't personally evaluate every member. It's very important that you be evaluated by your physician if you are in pain, or get pain with any of these programs. This is not physical therapy. The only reason I share that I am a TPI certified physical therapist is to demonstrate that I am more qualified to teach golf fitness than 95% of online coaches.

Is Your Weight Shift Stuck? Do These 3 Things
A better weight shift starts before you ever swing the club. In this video, I break down 3 physical things that can limit your ability to shift pressure into your lead side: 1. Balance 2. Hip mobility 3. Single-leg strength If you struggle with hanging back, losing power, or feeling like you can’t get onto your lead leg, this is a great place to start. The first test is simple: stand on one leg with a golf club for support. Then try it with your eyes closed. Then make it harder by adding a mental challenge, like counting backward by threes. Why? Because golf doesn’t happen in a quiet gym. You have to balance, rotate, shift, and make decisions all at the same time. From there, I show a 90/90 hip mobility drill to help you turn into your lead hip, plus a small lift-off variation to build more control and power. Then we finish with lunges and Bulgarian split squats to build the single-leg strength you need for a strong weight shift. Watch the video, then try the balance test today. Drop a comment with which one felt hardest: balance, hip mobility, or single-leg strength.

Plan for the next month
What up GPL! I plan to post a few more videos focused on power and mobility to get everyone going. My hope is to get a challenge going here in the next few weeks. I want something fun that promotes accountability. Maybe a leaderboard for workouts or a "who got the most distance" in 2 months challenge. Any thoughts or ideas from the group?
