Tim DiFrancesco, PT, DPT, ATC, CSCS, Head Strength and Conditioning Coach for the Los Angeles Lakers and co-founder of TD Athletes Edge, LLC., demonstrates in the video below, an intense and effective aquatic training session for a golfer. The session is performed in a HydroWorx 500 Series pool at Peak Performance Physical Therapy in Swampscott, Massachusetts.
During this particular session, the athlete starts by running on the underwater treadmill against the resistance jets to create the environment suitable for practicing explosive movements as well as increasing leg strength and stamina.
The most important part of the body for a golfer to focus on strengthening is the core. One way to do this is by performing specific exercises in the pool. In fact, due to the properties of water, the individual will naturally work on balance and core strength while doing protocols in the pool because of water’s instability in a contained location. Additional perturbance can be created with resistance jets, to further engage the core.
With resistance being one of the key components to strengthening a golfer and truly any athlete, Tim offers a multitude of exercises to get the individual ready for their season. Focusing on the fundamentals and mechanics during the off season and all the way until day 1 of competition will make a significant impact on their performance.
Some specific exercises Tim offers for strengthening a golfer’s core include:
