Our force training program is designed for everyone to use.  Whether your an experienced fitness fanatic or just starting out on your journey to getting in better shape for the course.  Every golfer can develop more force, at a faster rate.

It's important to note, especially for my fitness people out there, that this is not designed to be a strength training system that you might do at the gym, while lifting heavy weights, etc.  This program was designed specifically to be paired with overspeed training to help promote increased force abilities and an increase in rate of force development.  We always recommend adding strength training to take your speed gains even farther as well!

Of course, with any type fitness program, you should consult your physician if you are unsure.

We recommend that you complete force training on days you also do overspeed training and that you do it AFTER you complete overspeed training.  This is due to the unique characteristics of overspeed training and the need to be able to move at your max speeds.

If you prefer to do these exercises on off days, that is fine as well.  It is also a great ideal to add in this type of training when you complete any other fitness or strength routines.

The force training program was created to focus on specific types of training linked to increased swing speed. Most notably, those that allow for the increase in recruitment of fast twitch muscle fibers.  The two types of training used in our programming are referred to as dynamic swing strength and pulse training. Note that the descriptions below have been made for simplicity. So, let's look at each type and how it applies to training for force at key points in the golf swing.

DYNAMIC SWING FORCE: the dynamic swing force exercises are focused on moving in golf specific patterns with the goal of increasing the nueromuscular systems ability to recruit and utilize more fast twitch muscle fibers.  We'll separate out the lead and trail arms and then do them together, each providing a somewhat different stimulus.  Working our body through these motions with the intent of moving fast, will help to develop our ability to produce force and do so at a faster rate.

PULSE TRAINING: pulse training is a key training principle designed to specifically increase your ability to contract or "pulse" your muscles at specific points in the swing (the start of the backswing, the start of the downswing, and the release) and then relax them quickly.  Increasing force is a huge part of creating more speed, however, if we don't learn how to release and relax, our muscles will remain stiff and slow us down.
