By far t he majority of these are casual or recreational golfers who are poorly con ditioned\, unfit and unskilled and who present with a variety of challenge s to the medical and fitness professionals. It is my experience that many of the professionals who treat\, train and/or manage these players are not as well versed in the mechanics of the body in golf as they could be. It is the purpose of this course to train those professionals so that they ar e able to positively influence the quality of the golf and longevity of th e golfer.\n\n[/spoiler]\n\n[spoiler title='Course material']\n\nWHY GOLF F ITNESS?\n\nYou will learn that there is hardly a professional on any of th e world tours who does not pay attention to golf fitness. The money they m ake demands that they use every competitive advantage available and this i ncludes ensuring they are in the necessary physical condition for performa nce and longevity.\n\nOf greater significance\, though\, is the amateur go lfer. They are generally poorly conditioned and unskilled and this combina tion leads to injuries and discomfort for the player. There has been a gre at deal of research in recent years that has identified the typical injuri es caused by poor swing biomechanics as well as the technical faults cause d by physical limitations.\n\nTHE COURSE CONTENT INCLUDES:\n\nThe Kinemati c Sequence: The movement of the body through the swing  sequence is key w hen analyzing the anatomy of the golf swing. Students will learn the corre ct kinematic sequence\, the movement patterns of an efficient swing and ho w this affects direction and distance (power). The major muscles that are involved in the swing are discussed as is the difference between style and efficiency. We answer the question: “do you really need to be fit for g olf?”\n\nThe Majors: You will learn which of the major muscles are respo nsible for moving the body through the various stages of the swing.\n\nTec hnical Swing Faults Have Physical Causes. We analyse the twelve most commo n swing faults\, look at their physical causes and provide remedial exerci ses to rehab the limitation.\n\nScreening: Students will be taught to scre en for the most common physical limitations that cause these problems.\n\n Injuries\; The most common golf injuries are discussed and physical and te chnical solutions provided on how to prevent them from occurring.\n\nFitne ss Components: The primary golf fitness components of posture\, mobility\, stability and balance are analysed and we discuss how they relate to the fitness modules of cardio\, flexibility\, endurance\, strength and power. A warm up routine is included.\n\nWomen\, Children and Seniors\; The final module of the course highlights the difference between special population groups and their physical requirements. Specific reference is made to Lon g Term Athletic Development in children\, women in golf and senior golfers .\n\nParticipants will receive a course manual and will be expected to ma ke time to familiarize themselves with the golf swing by hitting balls and getting a “feel” for the movement pattern of the golf swing. There a re both theoretical and practical components to this course.\n\nCourse Obj ectives\n1. To update knowledge on the current research of the physical r equirements for an effective and efficient golf swing.\n2. To become fami liar with the physical aspects of the golf swing.\n3. To develop the skil ls necessary for a physical screening of a golfer.\n4. To interpret the s creening results and use this information to structure an exercise program me.\n5. To learn remedial exercises to correct the physical limitations.\ n6. To understand the various physical requirements of different populati on groups as they apply to golf.\n\nCourse Programme\n\nPlease note: Cours e times are 1pm - 8pm Friday\; 8am - 4pm Saturday.\n\nDay 1\n-  Registra tion\nModule 1 - What is/why golf fitness?\nModule 2 - The kinematic seq uence\nModule 3 - Anatomy\, the primary movers in the golf swing\nModul e 4 - Screening swing faults and their physical causes\nModule 5 - Sc reening swing faults and their physical causes\nModule 6 -  Physical limi tations and rehab.\n\nDay 2\nModule 7 - Most common injuries\, causes an d solutions\nModule 8 - Golf and children\nModule 9 - Women golfers \nModule 10  - Summary\n\nAudience\; Healthcare professionals who manag e clients / athletes involved in golf  - amateur or professional: physio therapists\, Doctors\, Chiropractors\, osteopaths\, personal trainers\, bi okineticists\; Coaches and Golf industry specialists will also gain great information form this course\n\nFacilities\; Parking (free)\, secure and inside premises\n\nAccomodation\; plenty of B&\;B's\, Guest houses and hotel in the green point area of Cape town.\n\nSnacks: Teas / coffees and a light meal will be provided.\n\nClothing: Comfortable.
