The Golf Gym Performance Program is golf-specific strength training built on the measured forces of the golf swing. A new 8-week program every cycle. More clubhead speed, fewer aches after 18, no guesswork.
Start Training · $100You've taken the lessons. You've bought the driver. And you're still losing distance every year while your back tightens up by the 14th hole.
Here's what nobody tells you: your golf swing makes demands your body can't currently meet. When your hips can't rotate, your lower back does the rotating. When your core can't transfer force, your arms try to create it. That's where the slow swing speed comes from. That's where the Monday-morning soreness comes from.
Generic gym programs don't fix this. Bicep curls and treadmill miles don't map to what a golf swing actually asks of your body. Some of it makes things worse.
This program starts with peer-reviewed research on the exact forces the golf swing puts through your hips, spine, shoulders, and wrists, then matches every exercise to those demands.
You're not doing "fitness for golfers." You're building capacity for the specific loads your swing produces, in the order your body produces them. Train the way your swing loads. That's the whole method.
Checkout takes a minute. Access is instant.
Every workout video-guided with sets, reps, and progressions laid out. Nothing to plan.
About 45 minutes per session. Minimal equipment, home or gym versions for every movement.
More speed off the tee, less stiffness after the round, posture that holds through 18.

I've never felt better playing golf. In our first session, I went from hitting my 7 iron about 150 yards. By the end, I was consistently hitting 180, 190, even 200 yards, all without pain, discomfort, or fatigue.
When I first went in, my swing was 93mph, and within a few weeks, I was up to 110mph. And we're still going up! This dude is a true student of the game, but most importantly, he's a great instructor.
I was nursing chronic hip pain for two years and my golf game was struggling. In a matter of a couple months Scott had me back stronger, pain free and hitting the ball farther than I had before the injury.
As soon as Scott became my trainer I saw an immediate correlation with better scores, more strength, and much more distance. His mobility curriculum is incredible and my back, which has a great deal of issues, became indescribably better and more flexible.
As a PGA Professional, I appreciate Scott's knowledge and enthusiasm. I've been working with him for about three months and have seen noticeable improvement in my golf movement along with speed gains.
I am mid single digit HCP and I have been working out at the golf gym for a few months now. Scott is a golfer, he is super knowledgeable with golf functional training. I am seeing significant improvements with my swing speed in just a few months.
My wife and I trained together and each one of us hit the ball longer because of our increased strength and flexibility. Our GHIN's also reflect the improvement. We highly recommend The Golf Gym!
Scott is great, I'm swinging faster and pain free for the first time in years!
Finally achieved a sub 5 handicap. Thanks Scott!!!
Scott was super helpful and made a plan specific for me and my speed training and strength. Saw super good results in a short amount of time!
I have only had two sessions but already know it is helping me with strength, flexibility and swing speed/length off the tee. He is great at explaining exercises, sends great personalized videos so I can do them at home.
Scott is very passionate and knowledgeable. He practices what he preaches. If you desire more speed, more power, more injury prevention, more fun, and a better overall golf game then this place is for you.

Yes. The program starts with a self-assessment and scales from your starting point. It's built for golfers, not athletes who happen to golf.
Start with Personalized Coaching rather than a general program. Scott screens you first and identifies what is actually causing the pain, then builds the 4-week program around that. Dropping into a generic program while something already hurts is how golfers make it worse. If you have sharp pain, numbness, night pain, or pain following a recent injury, see a medical professional first.
