- Featuring Richard Borden’s considerable strength and
conditioning and academic teaching background and Eric Kleven’s
extensive PGA golf teaching experiences, Functional-Strength
and Flexibility Training for Golf is the perfect resource for
golfers who want to hit the ball farther and with more accuracy.
The DVD emphasizes the fact that simply increasing a golfer’s
basic strength is not the key to better performance on the golf
course. Instead of a gym-based exercise program, the DVD focuses
on the major factors in golf performance: timing, flexibility,
balance, and functional strength. The functional strength aspect
of their total program is designed to emphasize those exercises
that are functionally close to those movements on the golf course.
-
- The program in the DVD is designed to facilitate balance,
coordination, flexibility, and timing—each of which is tied
in to a functional-strength program that simulates actual golf
movements. The program detailed in the DVD offers several major
advantages to golfers, including allowing individuals to train
on their own, with minimal equipment, enhancing their ability
to hit the ball a greater distance, improving their capacity
to stay on the practice range longer without tiring to enhance
golf skills, and developing greater muscle dynamics and support
to reduce the incidence of injuries.
