His fitness regimen is legendary and I was fortunate enough to play a few practice rounds with Gary when I was 19 years old. He has been an inspiration to me ever since. There are many things I do in my daily life that were influenced by Gary, but eating healthy and keeping fit are the two most important. Below is a video of Gary's 10 most important rules . . .
Today is September 22nd, 2017, and we present Fitness Friday #54. A Golf Video Blog with Mel Sole. Today we hear what Joey Diovisalvi says about the transition between backswing and downswing. Making this awesome "athletic move" as you start the downswing will help not only gain distance (and who does not want that) but also aids with increased accuracy as it allows the clubhead to travel correctly "down the line" as you move through the ball.

Today is August 4th, 2017, and we present Fitness Friday #47. A Golf Video Blog with Mel Sole. Almost 95% of the golfers I teach are out of shape physically and are unable to make a full shoulder turn. When I tell them they need to do some stretching exercises, their eyes glaze over. It is obvious to me they are not interested in the fitness aspect of the golf swing. Everyone wants their pro to say "Move your finger 1" to the right" and then they will instantly start hitting the ball longer and straighter! Folks, this is simply not going to happen. But today I have Mike Hansen of www.HansenFitnessForGolf.com to give you 3 simple yet effective exercises to increase your shoulder turn. Go ahead and find the time in your busy schedule to do these and you will thank me for this post!
