I am suffering.""Let me take a moment to really sit here and listen to your story and see where we can go from here.""Give people what they need in the context of what they want.""Fitness and movement should be inclusive."

On Episode 132 of the Fitness For The Fairways podcast, Joe sat down with Clinton Lee a Physical Therapist and Owner of Physio Strength in NYC.When it comes to performance, many professionals have conflicting ideas on what's good for someone vs what is not.

This has led me on a quest to slowly improve my handicap with a current goal of getting my handicap below 25 (48 handicap two seasons ago). In this episode, Dan and I dive into goal setting as well as our own goals so you can follow along with me throughout the season.

The Missing Link in Your Golf Warm-upOn 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 bodyWhy you should warm up before your golf roundsThe missing link from most golf warm-up routinesHow to structure your warm-upsThings mentioned in the episodePRGR Launch Monitor - use coupon code ParFour for 10% off your orderSuperSpeed Sticks - use coupon code ParFour for 10% off your orderConnect with me:InstagramTwitterYouTubeDon't forget if you have been enjoying the show to leave a 5-star review if you haven't done so already.

The Body Swing Connection with Carolina RomeroYour 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 SegmentHow my own mobility work impacted my own golf game.Connect with CarolinaInstagramYouTubeWebsiteDon't forget if you have been enjoying the show to leave a 5-star review if you haven't done so already.
