Lack of distance isn't a speed problem or a strength problem, it's a power problem. Essentially you need to have both speed and strength, and…in the right order. I always test strength and power so you know exactly where each area needs focus - more strength or more speed. In my golf fitness foundations power module I walk through exactly how strength turns into clubhead speed — and why most golfers are training the wrong end of that chain first.

Your core's real job isn't crunching — it's doing two opposite things at the same time: letting certain areas move, while others resist movement.

When that doesn't happen, everything in the body just turns together. No sequencing, no real transfer of energy, no power.

Train your core through multiple planes, with both stability and the ability to transfer power between your lower and upper body — and the swing starts sequencing properly again.

Is bad scapular control is quietly wrecking your swing plane?

Your arms are constantly moving around your body through the swing — your shoulder blades need to move with them.

Choosing a golf fitness professional isn't just about finding someone who works with golfers. It's about finding someone who continues to invest in their knowledge and deliver assessments based on current best practice.

That's why I maintain my active registration with TPI.

It means I'm committed to ongoing education, keeping up to date with the latest developments in golf performance, and applying a structured, evidence-informed approach to every assessment I perform.

For you, that means greater confidence that your programme isn't built on assumptions or outdated information. It's built on a thorough understanding of how your body moves, what's limiting your performance, and what will have the biggest impact on your golf.

Every golfer is different. That's why every programme at Swing Fit starts with an assessment.

Don't start by swinging harder.

Start by learning to use the ground.

Vertical thrust is your ability to push into the ground and create force back through your body.

That's why exercises like squats, step-ups and split squats matter so much—they're teaching your body how to produce force efficiently.

Power isn't just about strong legs.

It's about coordinated movement.

Master the foundation first, and the power comes much more naturally.

The hinge isn’t about bending forward.
It’s about loading through your hips.
That’s where your power actually comes from.

Before you book, it's worth asking a few simple questions:

✔ Is the assessment golf specific?
✔ Do they have a structured testing process?
✔ Will you receive an individual plan?
✔ Will your progress be reassessed?
✔ Are they actively maintaining their professional qualifications?

The right assessment should do more than tell you what exercises to do. It should help you understand why your body moves the way it does and give you a clear plan to improve.

At Swing Fit, every programme starts with assessment because better training starts with understanding your body first.

Test. Don't guess.
