Introduction

I have been playing golf for more than half my life and have always held the belief that a sound body leads to a sound mind. I am so committed to this philosophy that six years ago I hired my own personal physical therapist to oversee my strength, conditioning, and rehabilitation program. Programs for recreational and tour level players certainly differ, but the goal of any program should be the same: to change the composition and reaction ability of one's neuromuscular system in order to develop a more consistent golf swing.

Over the years, technological advances have led to incredible changes to the game of golf. Yet not until recently has attention been paid to how changing your physiology will improve your game. Regardless of your talent level, available time, or level of fitness, this book provides you with options for undertaking an effective program that will help you correct problematic neuromuscular imbalances. And by following these proven programs, you are sure to improve your game.
