Advance Praise for "Fix Your Body, Fix Your Swing"

"Golf fitness has had a huge impact on professional golf over the past ten years. This book will let you in on our plan to play better and have a longer career. Get to work." ---Davis Love III, 1997 PGA Champion and one of the all-time money leaders on the PGA Tour
"The science of golf has evolved so much. Joey's twenty-first century approach to the sport will allow any player---at any level---to improve his or her game." ---Jim Nantz
"Joey keeps his players fresh in mind and in body---and the fitter you are, the better you'll feel, and the lower your scores will be." ---Ian Poulter, 2004 and 2008 European Ryder Cup Member
Kurzbeschreibung
Golfers can't approach the level of tour pros because they're physically unable to match a pro's swing. Golf tips and swing advice can only take one so far. In order to truly correct a flawed swing, the causes of the problems must be treated, not the symptoms. This revolutionary golf fitness book incorporates the latest in biomechanics (the mechanics of the body and the forces of muscles and gravity) to fix swing flaws while strengthening the body's core and improving strength and balance to help golfers of all levels swing more like the pros. Beginning with assessments that determine where a golfer's body is too tight, not strong enough or out of balance, "Fix Your Body, Fix Your Swing" then provides specific, easy-to-follow exercises that correct whatever problems or limitations were revealed in the assessments. Just three twenty-minute workout sessions a week (only one hour a week!) will help anyone become a better golfer with a healthier, stronger body.

Finally, a reasonable approach to exercise
12. Dezember 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I am a physician who has acquired and read a number of exercise books, several of which are reputedly golf specific. They all have exercises that will work. The collectively biggest drawback to all of them is that when one looks for golf-specific exercises, one gets a list of basically every exercise in the book. No one who works for a living would have time to do the exercises regularly, and still play golf.
Joey D has taken a significant step forward by designing a series of workouts which, if done regularly, will cycle someone throught the entire series of exercises. Moreover, each daily exercise set can be completed within about a 20 minute period of time. Joey does not throw out every exercise known to mankind and then leave it up to the reader to design a program, he develops and provides the program for the reader.
Though I passed most of the simple fitness tests, I opted to do the entire program. It was an easy step to add three weekly workouts to my daily morning treadmill routine, the materials needed are few, inexpensive and readily obtainable, and my body tells me the next day that the exercises are effective.
I don't mind the pictures, I think they are functional and can be understood if assessed in combination with the text. Anyone who would go to this book looking for detailed biomechanical assessments needs to rethink the target audience for the book.
I would make several suggestions for improvement: [1] make it available on Kindle; [2] make it available in video format. Aside from that, it is a book that does what it is intended to do; it provides a series of exercises that are helpful for strength and flexibility, and it provides a process that any working person can fit into an otherwise busy schedule.
Thanks to Joey D

good intentions bad photos
4. Mai 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I think the excersises would be very beneficial. Problem is the black and white photos are small and hard to make out. The written descriptions are fine as far as they go but it's hard to know exactly how to do them without better photos.

i am a personal trainer, and have just taken up golf this summer...this book is basically a 6 -pt evaluation and has several exercises listed to fix each..really about 2 minutes of reading for someone with a reasonable knowledge of exercise..i was hoping that it would have some insightful biomechnic info, but it doesnt..eval was BASIC to say least.. good quick read maybe useful for someone w/ minimal exercise experience..not a fan of authors writing style humor..sorry.. it gave me a few idea
