Suspension training for the Golfer

We all know that developing and maintaining functional fitness is a critical to playing our best golf. But the challenge for most of us, is making the time to exercise and having access to the right equipment. Hectic work schedules, and the inconvenience of getting to the gym are all obstacles that stand in our way. To overcome these challenges, more and more top players, coaches and trainers, including the experts at the Titleist Performance Institute are turning to a highly portable performance training tool, the TRX Suspension Trainer.

The TRX suspension trainer is essential in developing core strength and increasing joint stability and mobility.  Some of the key movements that directly improve golf function are:

TRX Golfer rotation:
While maintaining tension on the handles this movement will keep the core muscles turned on and allow freedom of movement in the shoulder joint.







Chest press


TRX chest press:
The golf swing requires a strong push to create  powerful rotation.  The chest press increases chest strength, core stability and increased push power.















TRX Row: 
This movement adds joint stability in the shoulder and elbow.  Also adds strength to the rear shoulders, and upper back creating a stronger pull in the golf swing.













“You’ll hit the ball farther, improve your longevity, increase mental fitness and have less pain and discomfort when you’re done,” says Greg Rose, cofounder of the esteemed Titleist Performance Institute and co-host of the Golf Fitness Academy on the Golf Channel.
