Ep. 209: Top 3 Things Golfers Don't Know About Their Wrist Pain

from The Golf Fitness Bomb Squad with Chris Finn · host Chris Finn, CEO P4S Golf

Wrist pain is one of the most misunderstood issues in golf—and most of the time, the wrist isn’t the real problem. In this episode of the Golf Fitness Bomb Squad, Chris Finn breaks down the three most common types of wrist pain golfers experience: thumb-side pain, pinky-side pain, and pain on the back of the wrist. He explains where each one actually comes from, why overuse injuries are far more common than true wrist damage, and how muscles in the forearm, shoulder, and even the hips can be the real source of your symptoms. You’ll learn: Why most wrist pain is a symptom, not the cause The key muscle groups behind thumb-side vs. pinky-side wrist pain How shoulder and hip rotation deficits overload the wrists Why back-of-the-wrist pain often originates in the shoulder The critical role your impact position and golf swing play in recurring pain Why rehab without addressing your swing leads to a frustrating cycle of flare-ups If you’re dealing with wrist or elbow pain—or want to prevent it—this episode will help you understand where to look, what to fix, and how to stop chasing symptoms instead of solving the real problem.   Claim Your FREE Home Assessment: https://go.par4success.com/podcast Follow P4S' Socials:  Instagram | YouTube | TikTok | LinkedIn | Facebook
