  • 45 - Episode #45 - Martin Bingisser - Learning From T&F Throws

    In this episode I am delighted to be joined by Martin Bingisser. Martin is very well known in strength and conditioning and track and field circles.
    He is a former world class hammer thrower, is now a very highly respected hammer throwing coach, and works with a variety of sports in strength and conditioning.

    There are many parallels between developing the ability to throw far and swing fast and the goal of this episode was to learn as much from Martin as we could!

    This podcast does not have any sponsors or ads. I’m not going to try and sell you useless supplements. If you like the podcast and want to support Fit For Golf check out the Fit For Golf App and

    If you are interested in developing club head speed, and driving the ball further, this episode is for you. Tre Mullins is a PGA Professional based in Tenesssee, who has dedicated himself to learning about and increasing his own speed over the last few years.

  • 42 - #42 - Greg Grosicki PhD - Aging Athletically

    Greg Grosicki, Ph.D., CEP,  is an Associate Professor in the Department of Health Sciences and Kinesiology and Director of the Exercise Physiology Laboratory in Georgia Southern University.

    Follow him on Twitter and Instagram:
    @DrGregGrosicki

    Greg is extremely interested in how we can alter lifestyle to  positively influence physical capacity as we age. He is also a high level endurance athlete, having completed Ironman Hawaii in 9 hours and 22 mins.

    I first came across his work reading a research paper he was the lead author on that investigated the effects of aging on slow and fast twitch muscle fiber mass, strength, and power. 

    In this interview we dig into what he found, and how you can implement this information to age more athletically. 

    If you are interested in a high level of physical function into later years for both golf and life, this is one you will enjoy. 

    Just a reminder before we get started that Fit For Golf has it’s own app with programs to suit all levels of golf and fitness. There are options for at home and at the gym, and if you’re skeptical about getting started there are workouts of just 5 minutes in duration!

  • 41 - #41 - Greg Lehman - Chiropractors vs PT's, injuries, recovery, and the science of stretching

    After a 5 month break, the Fit For Golf Podcast is back, and I hope to bring you more frequent episodes. In today’s episode I talk with Greg Lehman, who is a trained chiropractor, physical therapist, and strength and conditioning coach. Greg is a very keen golfer and has also done some of his research studies in golf. 

    We talk about the differences and similarities between chiros and physios, common misunderstandings, good vs bad practice, and things to look out for with a practitioner if you are looking for one. 

    We also delve into whether swing mechanics can predict the likelihood of injury, the science of stretching, and why most things touted as improving recovery really don’t do much.

    Just before we get started I want to let everyone know of a promotion that is currently running on the Fit For Golf App. You can try the app for $1 for 1 month by using the discount code TRYFFG. Go to fitforgolf.app to sign up for the app and take advantage of this offer. 
    There are home and gym workout programs suitable for all levels of fitness and golf skill.
