054: Tips to Build Swing Speed

If you want more distance, you have to train for speed on purpose! In this discussion, Erik, Jayson, and Tyson break down practical ways golfers can safely and effectively build swing speed. The guys discuss the importance of intent, overspeed and underspeed training, and why speed work should be done when you’re fresh, not fatigued (duh). The crew also covers common mistakes like trying to add speed on top of “crap” mechanics, along with the roles of strength, mobility, grip strength, and equipment. The takeaway: with the right approach, golfers can train speed just like any other athletic quality and transfer those gains to the course. Hosts: Erik J. Barzeski, Jayson Nickol, Tyson Deskins
