Summary:
"Reach
your
full potential on the golf course by improving
your
mental and physical strengths. All golfers want to
improve
their swing and, as a result,
lower
their
score
. But often, despite numerous golf instruction videos, lessons with pros, and time on the range, they are still far away from reaching their goals. Are golfers thinking about the process of improvement incorrectly? Maybe achieving a repeatable swing and staying calm under pressure is not all about time on the range or on the course, but the manner in which you care for
your
body
and mind. The author's goal is to provide you with information that will help engage all of
your
senses on the course so you can enjoy the
game
as much as possible. Starting with
your
feet and concluding with a discussion of brain function, you will learn not only how to play
better
physically, but to excel at the
game
from a mental standpoint. Topics include: How the feet are the foundation for the swing. Correcting muscle imbalances (and not by stretching). Improving mental focus on the course. By focusing on critical aspects of human performance, such as diet, stress, muscle imbalance, the brain, and injuries, The
Healthy
Golfer
will teach you that it is impossible to reach
your
full potential on the course if you are not
healthy
in both
body
and mind. Dr. Philip Maffetone has worked with endurance athletes for more than thirty-five years. He lives in Oracle, Arizona"--Provided by publisher.
