    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.
