This disc golf performance program is built to increase drive distance, putting precision, and endurance for hilly courses. It includes dynamic warm-ups to prep your body before rounds, strength and power exercises to build rotational force and lower body control, and cardio conditioning to keep you strong through long days on the course. Whether you're a casual player or competitive athlete, this routine helps you play longer, throw farther, and recover better.

Cardiovascular Health
This disc golf training program improves heart health through moderate, low-impact cardio like dynamic warm-ups and full-body circuit training. These movements are tailored to mimic the demands of a round—enhancing endurance so you can finish strong, whether you're playing 9 holes or a full tournament, all while supporting long-term cardiovascular fitness at any age.

Balance and Coordination
Strong drives and confident putts depend on excellent body control. This program trains single-leg strength, core stability, and dynamic rotational movement to improve your balance and precision on uneven terrain. As you age, these skills also become essential for fall prevention and everyday movement confidence—making the course (and life) feel steadier underfoot. (Photo by Priscilla Du Preez )

FAQs
Who is this for?
This program is designed for disc golfers of all levels, ages 20 to 80. Whether you're a casual weekend player or preparing for tournaments, it focuses on improving strength, mobility, endurance, and injury prevention—all in ways that directly support your game.
Do I need to be in shape to start?
Not at all! The program is scalable to your current fitness level. You'll start with accessible movements and progress at your own pace. Many exercises can be modified for joint sensitivity, mobility limitations, or experience level.
What equipment do I need?
Most exercises can be done with minimal gear—like resistance bands, a medicine ball, or dumbbells. There are also bodyweight-only options. A yoga mat or foam roller is helpful for warm-up and recovery.
How will this help my game?
You’ll likely notice more distance on your drives, better balance on awkward stances, and less fatigue during long rounds. It’s not just about strength—it’s about control, precision, and staying injury-free so you can play consistently and confidently.
