Plan for Golf PerformanceSuccessBy: Dr. Paul Callaway One of the biggest challenges my golffitness and performance clients have is finding time to do their custom golffitness training exercises in their busy daily schedules. I learned a long timeago that the only way I was going to have success as a golf-specific physicalperformance specialist was by helping others to be successful at reaching theirgolf fitness and total golf performance results. Therefore, showing my golffitness clients how to overcome the all-too-common “I’m too busy to do myexercises” roadblock to success was to show my clients how to create the timein their busy schedules to perform the exercise programs I design for them. Here is what I teach them to do … Use A Time Planner A time planner, broken down by day, hour and minute, organized inadvance, is one of the most powerful, golf fitness training and personalproductivity tools of all. It enables you to see where you can consolidate andcreate blocks of time for concentrated exercises and work on your game. Eliminate All Distractions During this focused exercise time, you turn off the telephone,eliminate all distractions and follow your custom fitness training program non-stop.One of the best work habits of all is for you to get up early and work at homein the morning for up to one hour on your golf fitness training program. Youcan get three times more quality fitness training work done at home withoutinterruptions as you ever could in a busy fitness center or health club whereyou are surrounded by other people competing for equipment and creating thepotential for time-wasting conversations. Make Every Minute Count One of the keys to high levels of performance and productivity inlife and on the golf course is for you to make every minute count. Use traveland transition time, what is often called "gifts of time" to completesmall chunks of larger tasks. Specifically, be clear about effective exercisesthat can be done for even brief moments of time when you are driving and are stoppedat traffic lights, during lunch and even during coffee breaks at work. Remember, the pyramids were built one block at a time. A golf-fit body and greatgolf game is built one skill, and often, one part of a skill, at a time. Yourjob in time management is to deliberately and creatively organize theconcentrated time periods you need to get your key, golf-specific, physical/structuralimprovements done well, and on schedule. After all, without the essential physicalperformance factors of posture, balance, flexibility, strength and conditioningfully in place, your dreams of playing safe and optimal performance golf willremain just that … your dreams! Action Exercises 1) Think continually of different ways that you can save, scheduleand consolidate large chunks of time. Use this time to work on the ‘key’exercises from your complete, custom golf fitness training and performanceprogram designed by your golf fitness training specialist. 2) Make every minute count. Work steadily and continuously without diversion ordistraction by planning and preparing your exercises in advance. Most of all,keep focused on the most important results for which you are responsible.
