Strength and Conditioning

Strength and Conditioning Program

Strength and conditioning is an integral part of an elite golf program. All WA State Squad players are required to participate in the program.

The strength and conditioning program is under the guidance and supervision by John Polley, our movement specialist who has his premises in North Beach. New key performance indicators for specific golf fitness have been developed and we are proud to be the first state in the country to be using them. 

 

The expectations of the program are:

         Improvements in overall physical fitness

         Cardiovascular endurance gains

         Golf specific strength improvements

         Proprioceptive (balance, coordination, visual spacial awareness) abilities enhanced

         Joint mobility (range of motion / elasticity) improvements

         Improvements in mental acuity

         Increase player knowledge of factors affecting their own performance

         Instill a sense of the demands of full time sports professionals
