This short block of training is designed to act as a transition between end of season and beginning of winter training. The emphasis here is about acquiring a consistent pattern of training whilst allowing the body time to adjust following the heavy demands of a long golfing season. In this programme you will perform a number of movements which will lay the foundations for subsequent blocks of training. The general preparation phase is suitable for any level of experience and could be used in itself as a preparatory programme for anyone relatively new to training.

FAQs
Why only 3 Workouts ?
I Believe in quality over quantity. There may be times when more workouts are scheduled however I have deliberately stuck to 3 in most programmes such that it allows ample time to practice technical elements of the golf swing.
Who are these workouts suitable for ?
This phase is suitable for any level. The idea behind this general prep phase is that it lays the foundations for my subsequent programmes. Therefore anyone should be able to complete them relatively easily.
Can Junior Athletes participate in this ?
Absolutely. By exposing junior athletes to a range of movement patterns you are improving their overall athleticism. Golf is a physically demanding sport when considering the forces acting on the body and the repetitive nature of the swing. Therefore helping juniors be more robust is a great idea.
Do I have to do Testing ?
No not at all. However, I believe that framing each block of training with some form of testing is important a) to give you feedback as to the success of your training and b) provide a clear boundary between blocks of training
