    The Missing Link in Your Golf Warm-up

    On Episode 104 of the Fitness For The Fairways podcast, Joe sat down for a solo episode.

    With golf being a ballistic sport that places large amounts of force on the body, warming up is an important aspect of golf performance. A proper warm-up reduces injury risk, helps you feel more limber on the golf course, and helps you hit the ball further. 

    The problem is, most people think of warming up as simply needing to move their bodies before they play. Doing something is definitely better than nothing, but just moving your body will not prepare your body for the golf swing. 

    Joe hopes that you will not only learn how to create a proper golf warm-up, but it actually motivates you to do so before your next round.

    What you'll learn from this episode.

    • The two effects your golf warm-up should have on your body
    • Why you should warm up before your golf rounds
    • The missing link from most golf warm-up routines
    • How to structure your warm-ups

If you're local, come by for treatment, or reach out to me so we can play some G. Looking forward to connecting with y'all (gotta start practicing my southern slang 😂).

    When injured, the shoulder joint can be tricky. It's not uncommon for people to have shoulder issues that can linger around for months or even years.

    The Body Swing Connection with Carolina Romero


    Your body has a large influence on your golf swing. It literally is the thing that manipulates the club so you can launch that small white ball down the fairway. 

    This is one reason why coaches recommend you swing your swing. Trying to recreate Rory Mcllroy's swing can be a recipe for disaster if you don't have his mobility or strength levels. In this week's episode, we talk about the body swing connection and how working on your body can improve some of your golf swing faults (early extension, over the top, etc..). 

    If you feel your body is limiting your golf performance, this episode is right up your alley. 

    On Episode 101 of the Fitness For The Fairways podcast, Joe sat down with Carolina Romero a TPI Golf Fitness Coach, a Host on Golf Channel Latina America, and a golf.com contributor. 

    What you'll learn from this episode.

    • Carolina’s history of performance training throughout her junior and collegiate career.
    • How her movement patterns as a kid impacted her performance and movement habits as she got older.
    • Why it’s important to pay attention to your movement limitations when it comes to your health and fitness.
    • How your body’s ability to move can impact your golf swing.
    • What does aging look like and what movement limitations are most common in seniors?

    On Episode 100 of the Fitness For The Fairways podcast, Joe sat down for a solo episode.

    I want you to picture what a 50-year-old looks like. Now compare this image to Phil Mickelson.

    Is this what you'd expect of your average 50-year-old? People view aging as an inevitable downfall of function, yet Phil hit a 366-yard bomb, has calves that would make any man jealous, and just won the PGA Championship. 

    In this episode, we break down some misconceptions surrounding aging and how Phil Mickelson was able to turn back the clock and win yet another Major.

    I also dive into the topic of sitting and break down the truth behind how bad sitting really is for you. You might be surprised at what I have to say.

    What you'll learn from this episode.

    • Is sitting bad for you?
    • What can we do to improve our body's health and avoid a sedentary lifestyle?
    • Are we doomed to play poor golf as we get older?
    • How Phil Mickelson turned back the clock to win the PGA Championship.
