Welcome back to The IMAGEN Golf Podcast, I'm your host, Daniel Guest, and today, we're tackling a massive variable that far too many amateur golfers completely neglect: the pre-round warm-up.If your warm-up currently consists of a hurried arrival, two half-hearted practice swings on the first tee, and a prayer, you're not just risking a poor first tee shot—you're flirting with injury and leaving strokes on the table.The Problem with the Traditional Warm-UpFor years, the gold standard was the static stretch—the long, held touches of the toes, the held tricep pulls. But the science on pre-activity stretching has evolved, and for an explosive, rotational sport like golf, holding those long stretches before you play can actually be detrimental. It can temporarily decrease muscle power and make you feel less stable.We need to ditch the idea that a warm-up is just about stretching. It's about preparing the body to move powerfully and efficiently.The Tiger Woods Blueprint: Structure and SpecificityWhen you look at the greatest to ever play, Tiger Woods, his pre-round routine is a masterclass in structure. It's a complete dress rehearsal.He's not just hitting a random bucket of balls; he's on the practice green over an hour before his tee time, hitting a specific number of putts, often starting with one-handed drills to ensure pure face control. Then it's a measured climb through the bag on the range: 5 wedges , then 2 driver. 2 3 wood, 3 mid-irons, 7 driver, 6 3 wood, etc, and finally, play some imaginary holes. This meticulous process isn't just about warming up muscles; it's about dialing in rhythm, gapping, and ensuring every single club feels familiar before he steps onto the first tee. It's about eliminating variables—a core principle of lower scoring.The Power of Dynamic Warm-Up: The Miguel Ángel Jiménez WayBut what if you don't have an hour and a half? This is where the dynamic warm-up comes in, championed by golf's most interesting man, Miguel Ángel Jiménez."The Mechanic's" famous routine, which might look like a wild Tai Chi performance, is actually a brilliantly designed dynamic sequence. He's not holding stretches; he's moving his body through the full range of motion it will experience during the golf swing.Torso Rotations: Getting that thoracic spine—the mid-back—loose and ready for rotational power.Hip Swings & Openers: Mobilizing the hips, the engine of the golf swing, which prevents energy leaks and protects your lower back.Shoulder Circles: Loosening the shoulders to ensure a full, unimpeded backswing arc.Dynamic movement increases blood flow, elevates your body temperature, and essentially tells your nervous system, "It's time to fire up those golf muscles!" This is scientifically proven to increase clubhead speed and improve accuracy because your body is ready to move fluidly, not stiffly.Your Two-Minute Dynamic FixYou don't need a full hour. You just need two to five minutes of dynamic movement.Hip Swings: 5 forward/backward and 5 side-to-side on each leg.Torso Rotations: 10 gentle twists side-to-side, letting your arms follow.Overhead Club Stretch: Hold a club overhead, do 5 side-bends to each side, and 5 slight rotations to open the chest.Shadow Swings: Take 5 slow, deliberate practice swings, focusing on a full, free turn.Do this before you hit your first range ball or, if you're running late, right before you walk onto the first tee. You'll be amazed at how much better your opening shots feel. Stop treating your body like a cold engine you're trying to redline. Warm it up, prime it, and watch your consistency—and your scores—drop.

Saturday Mental Meals Shurite Troy June 26-28 2026 https://shuritebujutsu.com/seminars%2Fevents Support A Kids Dream https://gofund.me/e745a0e7 Injuries, ailments and bruising are part of being a martial artist. Sore muscles, joint tweaks and broken bones can happen in martial activity with many variables dictating the outcome. We want to identify the most important variables or potential risks. The injury rate in martial arts is similar to other contact sports. In a study, # Comparison of Shotokan Karate Injuries against Injuries in other Martial Arts and Select NCAA Contact Sports By John-David Swanson, Ph.D. Department of Biology and Biomedical Sciences, Salve Regina University, Newport, RI 02840 Martial arts has "myriad physical and mental benefits. Physical benefits include improved balance, meaningful exercise, and the ability to protect oneself against a physical threat [2]. It is also a physical art, with flowing movements that support one's connection to his/her movements." A review of research revealed there is a 1 in 5 chance of being injured in a shotokan tournament and 1 in 4 chance of being injured over the course of time training. The mean percentage of reported injuries thru 10 studies 1. Contusions 47% 2. Epistaxis (nosebleed) 20% 3. Laceration 14% 4. Sprains/strains 3% 5. Concussions 2% some as high as 7% the most injury-prone arts appear to be Jujitsu (97.5%), Aikido (51%), and Kung Fu (38%), followed by Judo, Karate, and Tae Kwon Do which all were at 20-21%. The least injury prone martial art of those studied is Tai Chi (14%). Which I define as the Wellness versions, but may include pushhands and some strengthening work. Over a 16 year NCAA research study, the only collegiate sport that had a higher injury rate than shotokan karate was football witha 36% injury rate. Soccer and ice hockey following respectively. The major risk factors for injury in the Martial Arts are the 1. time spent in training, 2. age of the participant, 3. the experience of the participant. 4. Specifically, it was found that overtraining, and older and inexperienced participants presented the highest risk of injury. As you might imagine, these factors compound, so an older, inexperienced person has a much higher percentage of getting injured. Professor Swanson states, "The single most important factor in preventing injury is the education and experience level of the instructor [14]. This indicates the requirement of having a strong organizational “apprenticeship” or instructor qualification that includes specific instruction in warm up and cool down procedures, injury prevention and the mechanisms of prevention, the ability to determine overtraining, the ability to give appropriate advice to students in the implication of techniques in both execution and results of delivery" Segways to why this is an important book, Ninja Nurse by Peter Jones. The Essential Guide to Injury Management in Martial Arts. It is available on amazon, goodreads and several other locations. Contributing to the validity of this 300 page book is that Peter is a nurse, has over 30 years of multi-martial experiences and deposits volumes of this information into one book. Ninja Nurse is an excellent guide to all aspects of injury prevention or reduction in martial arts. Chapters include health screening, risk assessment, and aspects of the training environment. Also, You Get a deepdive into children and to combat sports. It also includes true stories, useful links, and where to find important forms if you have a school. Peter takes you through a process, how to: 1. Reduce and prevent injury 2. Treat injury 3. Learn from the injury The book emphasizes content for the instructor. Peter walks through potential problem actions such as : 1. Breakfalling 2. Striking and padholding 3. Chokes and strangles As I read through the book, I noted that Peter provides you a good idea of what a legimate martial arts first aid kit might look like. Granted, any is better than none. However, This is particularly useful if you are not sure on how to build your martial arts first aid kit. Then please, make sure that you can use everything that is in it. https://www.nationalcprfoundation.com/courses/standard-first-aid-3/. $12.95 2 years Reality Moment: Indiana Personal Injury Lawsuit Involving Karate Kick Moves Forward. Kicking Held Bags, Johnny the jackass has already been warned twice about trying to crush people, and on third, gets a lady, jump kicks her when she wasn't ready. she injures her knee in the fall that required surgery. She has sued Johnny, and the court has stated, "an individual's actions during a particular exercise or drill in a practice session can be viewed as “within the range of ordinary behavior of participants in the sport” or whether it is dangerous is for a jury to decide." It continues, "Responsible trainers and athletes keep themselves aware of both the risk of injury and the steps to prevent them." My understanding is that the injured lady is only seeking damages from Johnny Jackass and not the martial arts school. My guess would be that they did things as close to right as possible, except for yanking johnny on his second warning. Ninja Nurse is an excellent clinical reference broken into areas, such as: 1. Spinal injury 2. Chest 3. Neck 4. Limbs 5. And smaller join injuries. Peter discusses Mental Health Awareness and there associations to problems in your training hall. Depression, anger, bi-polar students will bring unique concerns that you can reduce with awareness. Peter states, "consider an acute mental health episode like an acute injury." Iain Abernethy said, ""it focuses on how to ensure training partners don't get hurt and how to help them if they do." Jamie Clubb says, "this is as an exhaustive work on the subject as one could hope to find." I would tell you that this book addresses a critical area of any martial arts training center. Its value is well worth more than the cost. Thank you Peter.

Life is not merely a series of challenges to conquer; rather, it is an intricate dance to embrace, replete with its myriad twists, falls, and unexpected turns. In this enlightening discourse, we are graced by the presence of Sifu Boggie, a Daoist guide, healer, and storyteller, whose extensive journey through diverse disciplines and experiences instills a profound understanding of the natural flow of existence. With over four decades of expertise in energy work and Eastern philosophy, Sifu Boggie deftly blends ancient wisdom with contemporary practices, empowering individuals to unlock their inherent healing potential. His approach encourages us to move beyond the notion of fixing oneself and instead focus on rediscovering our authentic selves, fostering a harmonious relationship with life's ebb and flow. Join us as we delve into the transformative practices of Qi Gong, Tai Chi, and Daoist Shamanism, inviting you to embrace the adventure of life with renewed meaning and purpose.Takeaways: Sifu Boggie emphasizes that life should not be viewed as a problem to solve, but rather as an adventure to embrace, inviting us to dance with its unpredictable nature. With over four decades of experience, Sifu Boggie integrates ancient Daoist wisdom into modern practices, such as Qi Gong and Tai Chi, to foster personal development and healing. The essence of Daoism is to thrive in any circumstance, and Sifu Boggie encourages individuals to unlock their own healing potential rather than seeking external fixes. A fundamental principle discussed is the interconnectedness of all beings, which suggests that our state of mind and body is influenced by our thoughts and feelings, highlighting the importance of mindfulness.

“El siguiente hito es encontrar casa; lo que buscabas ya está, lo que tenías que resolver ya está resuelto.” -- En este nuevo episodio de La Gran Victoria, Isra responde a las preguntas de Juan Romera, uno de sus grandes amigos y miembro de su círculo de confianza más cercano.Juan, quien ya fue entrevistado en un episodio anterior, formula dos preguntas profundamente perspicaces:1. ¿Cuándo una vida de viaje se convierte en una forma de escape y cuándo es el momento de detenerse y disfrutar del lugar en el que estás?

September 2024. After years of studying Chinese language and reading taoist Classics, I finally make it to the Wudang mountains.. sacred mountain range that gave birth to 太極拳 (Tai Chi) and 武當功夫 (Wudang kung fu) ! The Wudang spirituality emphasizes inner cultivation, internal energy movement, and inner alchemy, over brute strength and spectacular figures. Many practitioners visit the mountains for retreats & training, or pilgrimage.In this short episode I share my first impressions as I arrived there: meeting with my teacher Gu, attending a local birthday party, and reflecting on how much I need to transform my life from fatigue and imbalance to health and vitality… After months of a draining lifestyle and emotional turmoil, I feel depleted. This journey is about finding inspiration through ancient Chinese wisdom and practices, to learn how to rebuild my strength and become a healthier person.

Here I explain the lymphatic system, a crucial bodily network for overall health and appearance. I explain how the lymphatic system works to remove cellular waste and fluid from your organs and combat infections. I provide science-based tools that support your lymphatic system for the sake of health and appearance, including: how to reduce fluid retention in your limbs, trunk or face, how to eliminate 'bags' under your eyes and brain fog, and how to improve cardiac health and longevity. Because your lymphatic system lacks a central pump, it needs the mechanical forces generated by specific types of bodily movement, breathing and pressure to circulate your lymph properly, and I explain how you can activate these. I also explain how to support optimal functioning of your glymphatic system, a brain- and spinal cord waste-clearing system active during sleep that is crucial for brain functioning and longevity, including to prevent dementia.

The Spiritual Practice That Literally Saved My Life with Regan Caruthers   The Spiritual Practice That Saved My Life with Regan Caruthers   What if the path to real success wasn't money, titles, or material possessions—but the ability to connect with your heart, shift your energy, and live in coherence?   In this episode of Richer Soul, Regan Caruthers shares her remarkable journey from Silicon Valley executive to yoga teacher and spiritual guide—and how a daily practice of devotion and gratitude literally saved her life.   Key Lessons:  Money Doesn't Equal Meaning. Growing up between a wealthy but absent father and a struggling mother, Regan saw firsthand that money doesn't guarantee happiness. We Are Programmed—But We Can Reprogram. From education to cultural conditioning, much of what we believe isn't ours. Regan challenges us to reclaim sovereignty. HeartMath Made Simple. Regan explains coherence: 5/5 breath through the heart while recalling gratitude. This physiological shift unlocks higher reasoning and emotional balance. Listening to the Inner Voice. A trusted inner voice told Regan to return to St. Louis—leading her to the hospital that saved her life. Discipline and Devotion Over Distraction. Phones, screens, and noise steal our attention. Regan reminds us that devotion requires time reclaimed for silence, meditation, and love. Gratitude Shifts Energy. Listing what you're grateful for isn't enough—you must feel it. Embodied gratitude changes your frequency. Eternal Perspective Reframes Fear. Recognizing our divine and eternal nature removes the grip of fear and redefines how we live.   Money Learning: Regan Caruthers shares how growing up between extremes of wealth and scarcity taught her that money doesn't guarantee happiness—and that true success comes from coherence, gratitude, and devotion. A former Silicon Valley executive turned spiritual teacher, Regan explains how practices like HeartMath, meditation, and embodied gratitude rewire our inner operating system, helping us move beyond programming, distraction, and fear. Her story—including how listening to an inner voice literally saved her life—reminds us that while money provides security, it is meaning, discipline, and divine connection that create true wealth.   Key Takeaway: Success without coherence is empty. True wealth comes from disciplined devotion, daily gratitude, and listening to the inner voice that knows the way.   Guest Bio: Regan Caruthers began her path with meditation and Tai Chi at the age of three, but rejected her early training in pursuit of worldly success. She rose quickly as a Silicon Valley corporate executive in educational software, but achievements couldn't heal the brokenness within. Returning to her spiritual roots, she dedicated her life to teaching discipline, devotion, and conscious connection. Today she is the founder of Aset Yoga Center in Missouri, offering one-on-one coaching, yoga classes, and her Ready to Awaken courses.   Links: Website: https://regancaruthers.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/regan.caruthers  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/regancaruthers/   Are you ready to align your money with meaning and create coherence in your life and business?

Ghost Dog blends hip-hop, samurai philosophy and mafia codes in a meditative hitman tale starring Forest Whitaker while Man of Tai Chi brings Keanu to the director's chair — and into the villain role — in a slick martial arts flick about fighting, morality and spiritual discipline in modern-day China. We unpack the East-meets-West aesthetics, the existential questions and discuss why both films punch way above their weight in the action genre.

October is a busy month: We honor Pink October, Hispanic Heritage and Filipino American History Month. In order to give myself a bit of a mental health break, I am going to be sharing some episodes that you might have missed. This interview was recorded 5 years ago in celebration of my mom's 70th birthday. We discuss her experience with breast cancer and her healing process. My mom did not opt for chemotherapy, but instead healed with her strong spirit and practiced the ancient art form of tai chi chuan. We of course do not recommend this for everyone, but listen on to hear survival story. The post 433. ICYMI Suzy Chan on breast cancer, tai chi and music first appeared on Sifu Mimi Chan.

Grandpa Bill talks about Qi Gong-Hello and thank you for tuning into "Workouts for Geriatrics, AKA, Silver Streakers, Good for All Kids from 1-92!" I'm your host, Grandpa Bill, and today on the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast, we're diving into a practice that's as ancient as it is effective for a long and healthy life: Qi Gong.Now, you might have heard of Tai Chi, but Qi Gong is its close cousin, and in many ways, its parent. The name itself is a clue: "Qi" (pronounced "chee") is the life force or energy that flows through our bodies, and "Gong" means cultivation or work. So, Qi Gong is the art of cultivating and working with our life energy.An Overview of Qi GongSo, what exactly does a Qi Gong session look like? Well, it's not about breaking a sweat or lifting heavy weights. It's about slow, mindful movements, coordinated with deep, diaphragmatic breathing. Think of it as a moving meditation.The core principles are:Gentle Movement: The movements are soft, fluid, and circular. We're not pushing our bodies to their limits; we're coaxing them into a state of balance.Mindfulness: The mind is focused on the body, on the breath, and on the feeling of Qi flowing. This helps to calm the nervous system and reduce stress.Deep Breathing: We breathe from the belly, not the chest. This helps to oxygenate the blood, calm the mind, and energize the body.Example: The Wall ExerciseNow, for a simple and effective Qi Gong exercise you can do right now, I'm going to teach you "The Wall Exercise." All you need is a wall.Find your spot: Stand with your back against a wall, about a foot away.Slide down: Slowly slide your back down the wall until your knees are bent at a 90-degree angle, as if you're sitting in an invisible chair. Make sure your back is flat against the wall.Breathe deeply: As you hold this position, breathe deeply and slowly. Feel the strength in your legs, but also the calm in your mind.Rise up: After a few breaths, slowly and gently push yourself back up the wall to a standing position.Repeat: Do this a few times, increasing the hold time as you feel more comfortable.This exercise is fantastic for building leg strength, improving balance, and calming the mind. It's safe, effective, and can be done by anyone, no matter their age or fitness level.Why Qi Gong is a perfect workout for "Silver Streakers"Joint-friendly: The slow, gentle movements are easy on the joints, making it a great alternative to high-impact exercises.Improves balance: Many Qi Gong exercises focus on balance, which is crucial for preventing falls as we age.Reduces stress: The combination of mindful movement and deep breathing is a powerful stress-reliever.Increases energy: By cultivating Qi, we can increase our vitality and energy levels, helping us to feel younger and more vibrant.So, whether you're 19 or 92, Qi Gong has something to offer. It's a journey into your own inner energy, a way to connect with your body and mind, and a path to a healthier, more balanced life.#QiGong,#GeriatricFitness,#GrandpaBill,#SilverStreakers,#WorkoutsForGeriatrics,#HolisticHealing,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#MindfulMovement,#Longevity,#AncientWisdom,

As a Christian women in this midlife season you are probably doing some sort of stretching or fitness routine to help your aching joints, menopausal belly bloat and for overall wellbeing. AND As a Christian woman, you want to hear the truth right? As a follower of Jesus, you want to hear the truth right from God's word. This conversation is rooted in biblical truth that God wants you to know about, regarding the fitness routine you may be innocently doing. More women in this midlife season are practicing yoga as they have found it is gentle on the joints. Yoga, tai chi and qigong are fitness modalities to help you build strength, stretch, relax and reduce some stress. But are they as innocent as they seem? These practices have deep and powerful spiritual roots that we all need to be aware of. The enemy is using these innocent seeming practices to twist what God clearly says is occult in His word. After all, the enemy's game is the same: to steal, kill and destroy (John 10:10). Many believers, are inviting spiritual oppression into their lives and not even meaning to! Could this be the ROOT of some health issues that may be lingering no matter what you do? I sit down with Apostle Richard Taylor, founder of The Master's Table Ministry and Rabbonis Love INC- He brings a powerful and biblical view on the dangers of yoga tai chi and qigong and explains why it's vital that we are aware of these dangers that can deceive. I also invited Ondrea Lynn back from the Christian Woman's Weight Loss Podcast as she comes from an occult background where she was heavily involved in new age practices for 30 years. Ondrea has helped thousands of women reach their personal health and wellness goals and improve their physical and nutritional health, as well as their emotional and spiritual well-being.  As always, you will want to take everything you hear today to the Lord and seek Him on this topic. We were obedient to the Lord to bring you this information and it's now up to you to seek Him for your discernment and direction. I invite you to stay to the end for a powerful prayer that Apostle Richard prays over you. As always you won't just leave with information today. Information + implementation WITH God is what will bring you healing growth and restoration.
