Swing Man Golf Day 2

Isometric Downswing Strength – 2 Sets of 8-10 seconds

  • Top of Backswing – 2 hands
  • Halfway Down – 2 hands
  • Impact – 2 hands
  • Top of Backswing – Trail hand, then lead
  • Halfway Down – Trail then lead
  • Impact – Trail then lead

These are tough one handed!

Dynamic Swing Speed – 2 Sets of 6

  • Decline Chest Fly to Triceps Extension
  • Cross Body Lat Pulldown

  • Lateral Raises – Back/Deltoids/Biceps
  • Incline Chest Fly

Full Swing Repetitions

  • 2×5 Trail Arm
  • 2×5 Lead Arm
  • 4×5 Full Swing

The full swing was supposed to be 2×15 but that’s a lot of swings in a row. I used a 60° and Brandi used her 7 iron because we’re swinging in the garage. My max speed was 92 and B’s was 70. We each got progressively faster over the first three sets.

That was fun! I hadn’t swung a club in about a month. Swinging with only my lead arm feels a little sketchy that I might extend and hit the ceiling.

  • 10 DB Push-ups
  • 10 Renegade Row + Reaches (15#)

Too Much Caffeine

I had a solo round of golf walking 18 holes yesterday. Had to camp under a tree on the 9th for about 30 minutes and still finished in just over 3 hours.

Warmed up with a few reps of various movements and some PVC stuff. I had another (partial) cup of coffee about an hour before the workout and it was a bad idea.

I started on the movements and B started on the cardio parts.

  • Partner B:
    • 10/15 Banded Uppercut Chest Fly (red CS)
    • 15 Incline Push-ups (on bench, 5 wide, 5 normal, 5 close)

I wont 4-3-3 on both rounds of push-ups. We finished over four minutes faster in 31:53. Sitting here shortly after the workout and haven’t felt like this in quite some time.

Walked 18 holes yesterday because the weather was perfect and there was a chance we’d only be able to play 9 holes today.
