When you are in the business of writing articles, they don’t always get published right away. Case in point: the article I submitted to the Golf Fitness Association of America (GFAA) on May 24th didn’t publish until June 25th. Enough time passed that I actually forgot I submitted it, which made for a nice surprise today when I opened my inbox and found it had gone live. Our human experience comes with the dimension of time, bringing aging and all the things many of us associate with it—hair loss, greying, new wrinkles, strange skin spots, and more. In golf, over time, statistically we lose power and distance. But does it have to be like that? I’m not sure it does. I’ve heard tales of tribes that lived healthy lives for roughly 200 years until they were discovered by others and learned they weren’t “supposed” to live that long. Within a generation or more, lifespans decreased to what we consider normal. We also live in a multidimensional electromagnetic field. In the dimensional space of oneness, geometrically there is no A and B of time, only A—the now. This space is one of abundance and perfect health. We can access it, in part because we’re already in and of it. Without getting any further into the metaphysical, the point is, similar to what Morpheus said to Neo in “The Matrix,” some rules can be bent, others broken. We can challenge conventional thinking to experience something different and even better. That’s partly what this article, "Defying Age: How to Maintain and Increase Distance As You Get Older”, is about. Read it on the GFAA website in the June issue of Golf Fitness Monthly. https://lnkd.in/efsDenVV #Golf #GolfFitness #FitnessTrainer #SpeedTraining #HealthAndWellness #Longevity #GolfLife #ProGolfer #Inspiration #GolfPerformance

I had the privilege of presenting at the 2022 World Scientific Congress of Golf and heard many great presentations. Unfortunately, I was unable to attend the conference this past summer, but I wanted to share a study I found interesting from the 2022 conference. This study evaluated golfers on several stamina factors. These were when carrying a golf bag with 1 strap, 2 straps high, 2 straps low, and using a push cart. Carrying a golf bag with 2 straps higher on your back or using a push cart, showed a significantly lower energy expenditure over the course of 18 holes. This demonstrates that coaches and players need to properly adjust their straps to have their carry bag higher on their back, or use a push cart when possible. Golf is a marathon not a sprint, and conserving energy wherever possible is a part of your overall strategy. In any sport, improving your health and performance is crucial. Evaluating and conducting scientific research and applying it to your game can help you get to that next level. Or just become a professional golfer and make your caddy carry your bag!

Everything is connected, golfers and coaches! The infamous inconsistency in our game often comes from misaligned training that doesn’t fit our natural Motor Preferences™️. At Motor Preferences Experts, LLC, we examine how the CNS (Central Nervous System) positions your body at the address to ensure optimal balance, reducing compensations that disrupt your swing. We explore where you fall on the Terrestrial-Aerial continuum, identifying the ideal posture for your unique motor profile. This tailored approach enhances your coordination and makes you feel more emotionally, mentally, and physically connected to the game. Your sensations on the course will change because your body will activate the correct muscle chains, utilizing the ground efficiently based on your motricity. Golf is as mental as physical, and it's vital to be in tune with how your brain processes information. 🧠 Your routine and approach to the course should align with how your brain naturally operates. It has to be personalized because we all perceive and interact with our environment differently. In short, your personalized posture leads to better balance, coordination, power, and consistency. At Motor Preferences™️, we seek coherence across your physical, emotional, and mental game, ensuring everything works harmoniously. #posturematters #motorpreferences #golf #golfcoach #golfperformance #golfmentalgame #sportscience #pga #lpga #golfscience Volodalen

Your Body: The True Power Behind the Swing Too often, golfers look to the latest clubs and tech to improve their game, but here’s a secret the pros know: your body is the real engine driving every swing. Think of it this way—your clubs are just tools, designed to respond to the power, precision, and control that only your body can bring to the game. When you strengthen and fine-tune the powerhouse within, every swing becomes more than just a motion; it becomes an investment in consistent performance. Golf demands strength, flexibility, and endurance—qualities that can only come from focused, intentional training. When you prioritize these elements, you’re not just building a body that can swing; you’re building a body that knows how to swing, that can stay in control even on the last holes, and that protects itself from common injuries, allowing you to play the game you love longer and better. And here’s what’s truly rewarding: a body trained for golf enhances your technique in a way no club ever could. Strength in your core, flexibility in your hips, stability in your legs—these all translate to a more powerful, accurate, and controlled game. So, why settle for temporary improvements? Real, lasting progress comes when you invest in yourself and build the physical foundation your game deserves.
