As a golfer you should be able to lift your own bodywear if not maybe even shouldn't play golf at all guys it's testing time let's go [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] today guys but we got it done all right so testing time on the golf watt app all right we're looking at strength Cycles into the winter during the off season we change the body more we create adaptation because you're not playing as much performance can be impacted but then that's how you cycle things into next year alright so coming off the back of the playing season you'll find that strength probably has dipped down that's about 15 kilos 35 pounds under my best 150 on the front squat previously at 165. Okay it's all that time you spend working on the game you're not working on the strength as much you focusing more on rotation speed balance and durability all right so that's why we have the strength Cycles guys because then we get into it we hit the percentages and then we Trend back up all right so that was a squat next up is the deadlift foreign guys in terms of what golfers should or shouldn't lift we said about the body weight that's going to be relative to your deadlift all right picking something up off the ground basically you're doing that all day long all right whether it's your kids whether it's your bag Etc we hinge all day long and if you can't manage to lift your own body weight you're already trending down okay it might not be a problem right now but with a couple more years a muscle mass that lean body mass continues to go down our health is going to go down with it yes it will help your golf game because if we can execute a really solid deadlift good spinal position activate the glutes you're gonna be better off better off in your lifestyle you're gonna be better off on the golf course as well okay so this is why we test this is why we have the different programs that allow you to build up your Fitness with golf is a motivating factor and as a girl but more so the instigate change all right because if you're not in the physical condition you want to be right now that's what I'm going guys right because you've got to be fit you got to be strong you want to be as healthy for as long as possible so you can play a better Golf and More golf but also so you can live your life go okay right that was our squat now we're going to deadlift we'll have a little look at the farm tell you about the different programs we've got different types of deadlift you can do to improve your strength and then it's on you to get better oh your boy's leaning up dude I've got to check that body weight as well down to 212. I lost about 10 pounds actually [Music] all right full video segment call for trying to use lifting straps [Music] okay so testing front squat we got up 250 kilos again unaware of being but that's what 3 35 340 pounds pretty solid okay I need to work on that moving pan deadlift put on those fractionals we've got to 183 kilos which is 400 and change all right so in terms of a focus point and how to work through these Cycles the next three months those lifts are going up all right so from here whether you are in a functional gym conventional you're trading hybrid in a garage whatever you got going on we can now use those Baseline numbers to heat your percentages the progressive overall blood and get stronger all right because if you get stronger you're going to get more durable you're going to have more power and endurance okay because once we start to use that strength we then phase it into power we face it into speed it is performance all right doesn't mean we have to lift heavy every single day it means that we get stronger and we get better okay guys so like we said whether whatever training program you're on right now whatever setting you're in we have the answers for you guys I want to help you with the game we want to help you get stronger ones to help you live a better life that's our mission that's what we're here to do guys all right so basically I want to squat better I'm going to load that up but specifically with a deadlift I've been there before I don't want to get back there again we're headed that 500 pound deadlift guys all right so that's my goal would love to hear yours as well guys right I'm going to tag it in with that 200 mile an hour ball speed so we're just going to be the outlier guys right do it differently but line it up to what you really want and then go after it with everything you got guys right like subscribe tell your friends golf strong foreign [Music]
