Ep 104. The Missing Link In Your Golf Warm-up28 Jun 202100:25:24

Send us a text

The Missing Link in Your Golf Warm-up

On Episode 104 of the Fitness For The Fairways podcast, Joe sat down for a solo episode.

With golf being a ballistic sport that places large amounts of force on the body, warming up is an important aspect of golf performance. A proper warm-up reduces injury risk, helps you feel more limber on the golf course, and helps you hit the ball further. 

The problem is, most people think of warming up as simply needing to move their bodies before they play. Doing something is definitely better than nothing, but just moving your body will not prepare your body for the golf swing. 

Joe hopes that you will not only learn how to create a proper golf warm-up, but it actually motivates you to do so before your next round.

What you'll learn from this episode.

  • The two effects your golf warm-up should have on your body
  • Why you should warm up before your golf rounds
  • The missing link from most golf warm-up routines
  • How to structure your warm-ups

The cat is now out of the bag. I am moving to Raleigh, NC, and will be joining Adam McCluskey's team at the PT Initiative in the North Raleigh area. If you're local, come by for treatment, or reach out to me so we can play some G. Looking forward to connecting with y'all (gotta start practicing my southern slang 😂).

When injured, the shoulder joint can be tricky. It's not uncommon for people to have shoulder issues that can linger around for months or even years.

If you have never had a shoulder injury, you may be surprised at how much you need your shoulders when swinging a golf club. Pain or poor mobility can prevent you from getting into key positions throwing off your kinematic sequence.

What you'll learn from this episode.

  • What movement qualities make up a healthy shoulder
  • What are the key areas of the body that influence your shoulder health
  • Is there really such a thing as poor posture?

The Body Swing Connection with Carolina Romero


Your body has a large influence on your golf swing. It literally is the thing that manipulates the club so you can launch that small white ball down the fairway. 

This is one reason why coaches recommend you swing your swing. Trying to recreate Rory Mcllroy's swing can be a recipe for disaster if you don't have his mobility or strength levels. In this week's episode, we talk about the body swing connection and how working on your body can improve some of your golf swing faults (early extension, over the top, etc..). 

If you feel your body is limiting your golf performance, this episode is right up your alley. 

On Episode 101 of the Fitness For The Fairways podcast, Joe sat down with Carolina Romero a TPI Golf Fitness Coach, a Host on Golf Channel Latina America, and a golf.com contributor. 

What you'll learn from this episode.

  • Carolina’s history of performance training throughout her junior and collegiate career.
  • How her movement patterns as a kid impacted her performance and movement habits as she got older.
  • Why it’s important to pay attention to your movement limitations when it comes to your health and fitness.
  • How your body’s ability to move can impact your golf swing.
  • What does aging look like and what movement limitations are most common in seniors?
  • Ask Joe Segment

Summary

In this episode of the Beyond Pain podcast, hosts Joe Gambino and Joe LaVacca delve into the complexities of flare-ups and the psychological barriers that can hinder recovery, such as kinesiophobia. 

They discuss the importance of managing expectations during pain and recovery, building confidence in movement, and practical strategies for navigating flare-ups.

On Episode 98 of the Fitness For The Fairways podcast, Joe sat down with John Lindsey, the Fitness Director at the Ford Field and River Club.

Mobility training in my mind is one of the most important characteristics for both performance and injury reduction. When I see people in gyms and on the golf courses, many people are using antiquated methods for building both flexibility and mobility. 

This episode is designed to help you cut through the fat and learn how to properly program mobility into your routine so you can move, feel, and perform your best week in and week out. 

What you'll learn from this episode.

  • The definitions of mobility and flexibility
  • John's mobility journey
  • Some Do’s and Don’ts of Mobility Training
  • How to use intention within your training
  • How much mobility work should you do?

Ask Joe Segment

  • What are the main areas of the body I target during golf-specific warm-ups?

Episode 95: How To Train Like The Pros


THIS IS THE LAST WEEK FOR OPEN ENROLLMENT INTO THE IN-SEASON PHASE OF THE GOLF PERFORMANCE PROGRAM. ENROLLMENT CLOSES APRIL 30th. GO TO www.joegambinodpt.com/golfperformanceprogram TO SIGN UP BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!

On Episode 95 of the Fitness For The Fairways podcast, Joe sat down with Spencer Tatum, the owner of Tatum Human Performance.  Spencer is a  Golf Digest Top 50 Fitness Professional and works with some of the best golfers in the game including former #1, John Rahm. 

It's a common misconception to believe that you shouldn't train like an athlete unless you are one.  In reality, all humans should be trained like athletes. Your starting point and specific goals are the major factors that need to be considered to create the optimal plan FOR YOU.

This episode dives into this exact philosophy. We go through Spencer's process for training all of his athletes from the casual golfer all the way up to the John Rahm's. We share our insights into teaching you how to enhance the way you train for longevity and performance.

What you'll learn from this episode.

  • Is the fitness industry/health care industry broken?
  • The difference between strength and conditioning education and its application
  • How to train like PGA Tour players
  • Breaking down John Rahm's movement limitations and how it impacts his golf swing

On Episode 94 of the Fitness For The Fairways podcast, Joe sat down with Jason Moore, the co-founder of TRUE Linkswear.

TRUE Linkswear is an amazing golf shoe company that makes golf shoes that are built for the human foot. Unlike the majority of footwear out there (golf or not), many shoes are designed more for aesthetics than for foot function - which can lead to a myriad of orthopedic foot and ankle conditions. TRUE Linkswear blends the best of both worlds. This is why wearing the proper footwear absolutely does matter, especially if you already suffer from foot/ankle issues. 

In this episode, we talk about why your feet are important, how to identify the best golf shoes for you, and why TRUE Linkwear is doing things right.

What you'll learn from this episode:

  • Jason's background in golf including his father co-designing a golf course and his brother Ryan Moore being a 5x PGA Tour winner
  • Why the types of shoes you wear matter
  • How to find the best golf shoes for you
  • How True Linkswear golf shoes are different 
  • Should you use a minimalist/zero drop golf shoe?
  • Personal stories as a caddie for his brother, Ryan Moore

The Ask Joe Segment:

  • How often should you change your golf shoes
  • What is Ground Reaction Force and how can you improve it?
  • Which golfers at this moment are impressing me the most when it comes to improving their swing speeds
