Tim is a 55 year old Dentist who enjoys golf several times a week. After seeking our guidance, we discovered that he needed more mobility to gain distance. After doing a few exercises and sending him home with a great routine he found that he was able to move better a few weeks later. He came back after golfing one week and states that he is finding his drives 15 yards farther down the fairway than he was a month prior. So for Tim, the key to increasing his drives was to increase his ramp time in his swing by increasing his range of motion.
After working with our personal trainer he saw an increase of drives by 15 yards and high position on the podium at the events he played at.
