The Simplest SWING SPEED Training Drill for Golf... Ever!

[@jiankhoschnau2356]

Hi! I saw your drill for swing speed! How many sett could possibly do per day? Could I do the drill with other clubs. I am played golf almost 3 years. Regards

[@TheViewer3009]

Love this. Titleist Performance Institute suggests a similar protocol. Obviously not the message companies selling speed training aids want to get out, but the proof is in the pudding. There's zero cost of entry, so give it a try and see what happens.

[@linkbelt111]

MOST golfers purposely seeking more club head speed lose accuracy more times than not. It's actually a bad trade-off. You're either fast or you are not.

[@jimsmith5452]

Just a fair warning to listeners; par4success claims they do all these “studies” but these aren’t scientific studies that are going through peer review and are being properly vetted with IRB consent. I think it’s kinda disingenuous to poke fun at companies for doing case studies and say “that’s not research”, well neither is what your doing, I’d consider that more in house investigation. I’ve read their study and it is not something that would likely survive peer review as written. It’s annoying to see all these companies claim we did a study and then realize no, no, there is no quality control measures, for all we know all the data could be made up! Not that it hasn’t been done going through proper channels (IRB, laying out measures pre study) but at least the scientific community can verify the results

[@TheBruceKeller]

Peer review is kind of meh nowadays in the medical /sports field. The whole process is strongly biased against negative studies and it's not worth the time for people to do the peer review unless they have some kind of external motivation like it will bring notoriety or some kind of financial gain. It's actually kind of bizarre how all fields of science are somehow treated equally; like practical physics vs. some health science with x number of participants. I've seen some absolute jokes get through the peer review process too when it comes to health, one of the most widely cited e-cigarette studies from Penn State had like 20 participants and used one single model of a disposable unit from some manufacturer no one has ever heard of.

Great video! You don’t always need to go out and buy equipment to get better.

[@arielluna4399]

I like it, I'm going to start this. 👏👏👏👍💪

[@nicolasjoakimides4107]

Hello, Do you think its ok to do this protocole after a 2h driving range cession ? Thanks !!

[@18STRONGTV]

No. You definitely don't want to do it after. However, once you get warmed up, it would be a great drill to do at the beginning of that session. You never want to work on speed after a long session because you will likely be fatigued. Your body can't get faster when it is tired.

[@nobodyimportant76467]

I know this video has been around a while but I’m curious about anyone’s success stories as in how much gained and how long it took to start seeing results

[@NeilWoodSales]

Thank you! This video is very helpful.

[@18STRONGTV]

Awesome. I'm glad you found it helpful. Let me know how it goes 😁

[@jeffp2001]

I do most of these exercises, I think you should add bracing during these exercise like dr Stuart McGill explains.. thx

[@GEO-GEORGE65]

GREAT advice, plain and simple, THANKS

[@anchorgolfcenter2236]

Would you be able to name the training aids that you are holding in the beginning of the video? Thank you.

[@crispyduck1706]

This works have tried three practice swings at maximum speed and the next launch monitor swing adds 6mph ball speed guaranteed

[@Pud56]

I find doing this then hitting golf balls ruins my timing. So I do speed training on different days to my playing or practicing, certainly would have a few hours between speed training and practice

[@hlchen9497]

@@Pud56 I just did this at the start of a range session and it completely threw off my timing and ball striking. Not to mention tired me out a bit. I'll give it a try on off days instead of range days.

[@rontapley232]

Great advice! Keep it simple

[@jmrm0478]

Sounds good!

[@pitboss1080]

So much great logic, it’s 🤯

[@18STRONGTV]

Sometimes the simplest answer is the best answer. 😉

[@lucpaquette5031]

Hi! Very interesting. Doing already some golf strengthening with a specialize trainer for two full months now to maximise club head speed. I don’t see yet any noticeable progress +/- 2 mph). Living also in Québec (Canada)I have to deal with 8’ ceiling top during winter. Can I add this speed training using a 8 iron instead as this is the maximum lenght club I could utilise in my house?

[@18STRONGTV]

Yes. If that's all you have available, it's definitely better than not doing it. It will still help the body understand how to swing faster.

[@lucpaquette5031]

@@18STRONGTV thanks for answering! 👍

[@bh5606]

Who do you see for golf strength training?

[@dannybeck4901]

I am 59 years old and I can still get club head speed up around 124. I want 10-15 more mph . That is my goal for the next year. I am looking for help. Any takers ?

[@TC.....]

it's not possible because of air resistance, you are capped at 124

[@jackyzeng2171]

Have you made it?!

[@dovski3161]

are you sure your swing speed monitor is not set to km/hr haha? At 124 you are well above average for PGA men's tour and out of sight relative to senior tour. eg McIlroy who is one of the longer hitters swing speed is about 122 and Monty is less than 110 !

[@deandeibert1966]

I’m 73 and after both shoulder replacements my swing speed is 75-80. What’s the maximum distance I can expect?

[@yukonj2567]

about 180-210 depending on if you find center of clubface or not.

[@18STRONGTV]

@@yukonj2567 exactly.

[@hakirk1]

How often and how long do you have to continue your routine before new speed gets into your on course swing.

[@18STRONGTV]

As long as you aren't training excessively and playing a ton every week, you can do this consistently through the year. Even during season. Since it's not a ton of reps and there isn't much resistance, it's not as taxing on the body as a heavy weighted workout. I'd recommend 2x/week in season and no more than 3x in the off-season. One way to help transfer this to the course (after doing several of the mentioned sessions) is to mix a few of these max speed swings (without a ball) in at the driving range, then hit hit a couple balls with the same intention of speed (without regard for where the ball goes for the time being). This will help you feel max speed in a real situation. Just by doing this, you will notice that your "cruising speed" will naturally start to increase.

[@grandpagolf]

Wow! Thank you so much for delivering the truth! I agree with you 100%. Some older people like me asked the same so many times. I usually warned them re. all those tools or aids supposed to make wonders, they can do much harm. Cheers.

[@tarheelace]

Save 5 minutes: Swing driver hard 10 times. Rest, do it again. Total of 3 sets. Warm up first.

[@williammakolin1432]

What about irons can you do the same exercise for speed

[@18STRONGTV]

You can. But I find that doing these drills with a driver is more comfortable and should translate over into your irons as well. But go ahead and try it. I would start with a longer iron (4 or 5 iron) then maybe dabble into the shorter clubs if you want. But don't do more than 3 sessions per week.

[@Labgorilla]

Are you anything to do with Mike schofield sir?

[@18STRONGTV]

Nope.

[@stevestewart240]

How many days per week?

[@rnawalker]

On the podcast Chris said 2-3 times per week (at most)

[@18STRONGTV]

@@rnawalker yep. Max 3x per week.

[@orviskid]

How do i loosen up to get more turn, i have almost no rotation. I need to loosen up.

[@bigwill6974]

How many times per week? 3 times every other day is my assumption.

[@18STRONGTV]

Max 3x per week

[@getahunhaile9]

6 minutes is too much for your video. You could have said it in a text in a minute. It was a waste of time for me.

[@18STRONGTV]

Glad you liked it. Thanks for the comment

[@benjackson4635]

With all due respect, our research and results over the last 40 years prove that this premise is incomplete and basically wrong. What's being suggested may be a way to get moderate gain, but it's far from being the best way to add clubhead speed, length and command. Ben Jackson, FastFirst Golf JET SPEED.

[@TheAboriginal1]

Why not? Matt Fitzpatrick added 40 yards to his drive from speed training...... all research indicates that clubhead speed is the primary factor in longer drives.....

[@benjackson4635]

@@TheAboriginal1 You’re making my case for me. Clubhead speed training is what we do! What I’m saying is a long proven fact. Swinging at nothing is anything but the best way to add clubhead speed. The brain know when there’s nothing to strike. The brain amps up the force, acceleration, and speed when there is something to strike. FastFirst Golf JET SPEED, Ben Jackson
