Flexibility to Win

Skip’s flexibility program has been developed to enhance any professional, amateur, or junior golfer's range of motion, over-all mobility, performance levels, and also to prevent injury. Each specific flexibility exercise is based on the flexibility requirements specific to golf. The latest research has shown that an athlete who incorporates a training program based on sport–specificity will perform at a higher level.

The principles listed above form the center of Skip’s flexibility program. When these have been followed, embraced, and practiced daily by my clients, their flexibility and golf performance has increased significantly.
