Did you know that your fitness routine off the golf course is just as important as the 18 holes themselves?  The golf pros at Talking Rock have recently undergone training to help golfers improve their game through overall physical fitness.

On February 16^th and 17^th, Club General Manager Jim Leisenring and Athletic Director Pam Mitchell attended a golf fitness certification program hosted by the Titleist Performance Institute (TPI).  A prestigious certification program, Jim and Pam joined other golf professionals, fitness trainers and medical doctors from across the country to learn how to accurately analyze a golfer's range of motion and understand how it affects their swing.  During the intensive two-day program they learned to identify specific motion characteristics and develop customized golf fitness workouts that can increase flexibility and motor functions, while still addressing a person's physical limitations.

After completing the program, Jim and Pam have become TPI Certified Golf Fitness Instructors; joining only two other certified instructors in the area and making Talking Rock the only Prescott golf course to provide such training. 

While the obvious benefits of this program are improved golf swing mechanics and a better game, this training can also decrease the likelihood of long-term injury and increase your overall physical fitness.

We are looking forward to sharing this information with you.  Stay tuned in coming weeks for a series of short, informational seminars that will introduce you to the program and provide you the opportunity to take advantage of this exciting new training.
