| 0:33.6 | Just doing those mobility exercises gets rid of a lot of pain for them. They immediately will start to like, oh, I'm turning more. I'm not sore after I play the round of golf, particularly like guys who were good players when they were younger. They understand the movement they're supposed to do mentally, but physically they can't do it. You give that guy mobility and his hip back and his buddies are like, oh my God, what'd you do? Not to mention his ball's going farther than theirs now. That's literally just level one. Then you move up level two is how do we get you stronger, whether it's squat-type movements or hinge-type movements, which are like a kettlebell deadlifts or banded lifts. How do we get your hips stronger? Bridges would be the simplest example of that. How do we strengthen basically like the backside of your legs, your butt and your hamstrings? Those are your two lower body, and then you're also working, getting stronger in your upper body, whether it's with dumbbells or barbell or cables, whatever it may be. Those are the big ones that we really want to see you get stronger with. And then you get to power. Power is how quickly can I get it from the bottom to the top. So if you can move 50 pounds, but it takes you a minute, that is less powerful than if you can move 50 pounds the same distance in one second. That's where the explosiveness comes from. And so those are kind of the big three categories. So during that 15 minutes a day, because you're assessing, you know exactly it is what you get rid of all the extra noise and you're solely focusing on what is the low-hanging fruit for you at that moment. |
