Golf Training to Increase Club Head Speed

Golf training with golf exercises and golf fitness training is a key to increased driving distance off the tee. The process by which the golfer can increase club head speed is two-fold. Step number one is increasing the efficiency at which the biomechanics of the golf swing are executed. Increased efficiency in the biomechanics of the golf swing will allow a greater percentage of the kinetic energy developed within the golf swing to be transferred into the club head. Thus allowing for increased club head speeds at impact.

The second process by which the golfer can improve how far tee shots travels is through developing the power outputs of the body. We must keep in mind it is the physical body executing the golf swing, and improvement in key areas of the body can increase the potential ball speed of your tee shots. One of these key components is the power outputs of your body.

Power can be defined as the ability to generate the greatest amount of force in a short amount of time. If the golfer increases the ability of his or her muscles to generate power, this can then positively impact the ability to drive the golf ball farther. The process by which the golfer can achieve this outcome is through the implementation of power drills within a comprehensive golf fitness program. Such exercises over time will enhance the ability of the golfer’s muscles to develop increased power within the biomechanics of the golf swing.

The golfer must keep in mind power exercises are not the only type of training beneficial to the golf swing. Execution of the golf swing does require specified levels of flexibility, balance, and muscular strength to execute properly. It is only with the development of these physical components as well as with power training can the full benefit of such exercises be seen in improved clubhead speed on the tee box.

Common power training drills I utilize with my professional golfer’s within a comprehensive golf fitness program are; medicine ball side throws, reverse medicine ball side throws, rotational chest passes, and tubing rotations. All of these exercises develop the power component of the body’s muscles and will benefit the golfer over time.

Remember club head speed is contingent upon both the efficiency at which the biomechanics of the swing are executed, and the ability of the body to generate power. Both components are required in order to increase the distance of you tee shots. The utilization of golf training in the form of golf exercises and golf fitness programs can benefit you on the physical side of developing more club head speed.
