GOLF FITNESS TRAINERS Fit Too Travel (FTT) provides golf fitness to individuals and groups of all ages. FTT’s accredited Swing Reaction Golf Conditioning Specialists are mobile personal trainers and come to your home, club or school to complete the Swing Reaction System (SRS) biomechanical program. It’s total conditioning for golfers. The SRS exercises train the exact muscles that are required to swing a club. The SRS is also designed to improve the motor functions associated with the golf swing. It takes between 5,000 and 12,000 repetitions to learn a skill and over a million repetitions to master a skill. This motor learning or muscle memory is extremely important with the golf swing. To reproduce a proper swing every time will improve your golf. FTT have introduced a referral system where the Club Professional highlights actual swing concerns and the accredited trainer can assist in training proper swing biomechanics. There are basic biomechanical swing faults, once they are identified the remedy is easily addressed. In time the golfer will be more teachable from the golf fitness sessions. The SRS has 18 golf specific exercises that will address the six key components of the golf swing: the address, backswing, transition, downswing, impact and follow through. The system has the potential to benefit a wide variety of golfers. FTT have been able to assist with fitness in the trainee professional, pennant player, women and men club players and juniors. FTT have delivered individual and group sessions in the golf club setting utilising club facilities for over two years. The sessions are safe and in groups it is an action packed and fun. Seniors, in particular, benefit because of its emphasis on flexibility. The exercise program is designed to increase the player’s range of motion which translates into greater clubhead speed and the ability to hit the ball longer. Beginners can learn the proper biomechanics of the golf swing thus avoiding bad habits. Women through understanding how to load and unload with good transition will benefit from additional length. This SRS as golf fitness will improve your overall flexibility, muscle strength, tone and most importantly longevity, it will keep you on the course for longer!

Please contact us for a quick response enquiries@ftt.com.au Paul Lewis TESTIMONIALS "I met Paul Lewis through a Swing Reaction deal wherein he became my personal trainer for golf specific training. Whilst Swing Reaction (which is a book and a DVD) promised to add 50 metres to my drives they didn't promise to train me for the long walk, hitting that next shot, or sinking it in the hole, or dealing with the sport on the various terrain, up and down dale. Initially we were training on the golf specific exercises then we started on a campaign of training to increase stamina. Paul's approach to training and guidance in goal setting really set him apart from any other trainer I have spoken to. Paul commenced training me when I was on a 34 handicap. In only 4 months (Christmas) I had come down 10 shots to 24. At the outset I had set my first goal to break 30 by Christmas. I had only taken up this sport in March 2005 and started on a handicap of the usual 45, so when I got the wonderful results with Paul's training I was hooked not only on golf but also into the wonderful training he set for me. To achieve anything in life we must set ourselves goals. Without Paul's guidance I don't believe my goals would have been achieved. Thanks Paul..... " Christine Marks of Cammeray "I knew Paul Lewis was into fitness and he approached me to consider golf fitness for my members. Paul explained the Swing Reaction System to me and I thought this can only help improve all golfers of all ages. I had Paul start with my Trainee professional and elite golfers, he also introduced group sessions for the ladies. Within no time everyone was benefiting, lowering scores and enjoying their game better. Every time I picked up the paper to look at the results another person attending the sessions had won! Some felt stronger, some more flexible and some understood their swing better which really helped me as these players were more teachable. We operate on a referral system where Paul works on the swing faults that I identify and it has really helped each player....Good work! ........" Marty Lyne, PGA Teaching Professional |
