Sports Performance

Sports performance training programs are designed to improve athleticism specific to each client's sport. Clients should expect to experience improvements in flexibility, balance, strength, power, agility, and endurance. An athlete that is properly conditioned for his/her sport is less likely to experience musculoskeletal injuries. Programs and guided training sessions are provided by degreed National Strength & Conditioning Association certified professionals.

During the first session a physical assessment is performed following a brief consultation. The physical assessment may include resting heart rate, resting blood pressure, postural evaluation, spinal and joint active range of motion, manual muscle testing, and a functional movement screen.

Clients may be provided with a heart rate monitor during guided exercise sessions. This helps us to determine appropriate exercise intensity and assess progress. We can also assess progress by performing body composition analysis (body fat testing) periodically (this is optional).

Golf Performance Training

Improve your golf game by increasing strength, power, endurance, and flexibility. The National Academy of Sports Medicine has conducted extensive research on golf swing biomechanics and applied exercise training to improve athletic performance.

This training protocol developed by the National Academy of Sports Medicine for golf fitness and enhanced performance is designed for golfers that want to improve overall performance and reduce and/or alleviate common golf injuries.

Southwest Fitness 24/7 Golf Fitness Specialist, certified through the National Academy of Sports Medicine, designs and implements customized training programs. Following a consultation, a physical assessment is performed including postural evaluation, active range of motion measurements of the spine, shoulders, and hips, manual muscle testing, and a functional movement screen based on biomechanics of the golf swing.

The golf performance training program begins with corrective exercises needed to address any musculoskeletal deficits in flexibility and stabilization and then progresses to strength and power exercises. This program not only improves golf performance and reduces injuries, but it also results in improved overall fitness with gains in lean muscle, flexibility, balance, aerobic capacity, reduced body fat, and athleticism with carry-over into other sports.

All personal fitness training and sports performance training services are provided by degreed National Strength & Conditioning Association certified professionals (see staff).
