That noodle arm feeling you talked About years ago.. Thats my best speed. I wish i could express enough how you have changed my thought process.. Merry Christmas Baus..

Wow you are the guru. You are so well read. Love your oversight and informative nature.

Just took up golf again after 10 years off and at 47 cruise at 105 and consistently swing 112 getting after it. I tend to release early, so might have a little more in the tank, will have to work on that tip you gave. Love your content

All so true. I have been doing a lot of gym strength work and picked up a few mph, but the most gains have been from flexibility work as this allows more rotation in the back swing and hips that are free to rotate through. Also working on hearing that whoosh sound ahead of you so you are releasing though the ball. Not as quick as Matt, but have gone from 85mph up to 98mph and hoping to break 100 at some point soon.

Been working on a slower takeaway and applying speed at the bottom with driver, so much easier when you think apply speed instead of apply power.

Ladies and Gents. Do not forget sufficient rest. Regardless what workouts yoga and speed training you do always get rest.

I work and sit for a long periods but I do ensure I get up and stretch and do some basic calisthenics during the work day.

Oh yeah. If you speed train properly you can build a speed reserve. This is useful cause it will build up the base club head speed for all clubs.

I’m 44yrs old, just under 6ft and super thin, but athletic. A golfer asked me on the range today if my club head speed was 120mph. I have no idea. I have quick hands so focusing on hip turn, a flat front wrist, and my head down is crucial. On the course hitting 285+ yards occasionally and not fully activating my body properly. My goal is 300yrds and Eagle putts.

Getting strong at the gym will help your speed ONLY IF you have flexibility.

Being flexible is the single handed most important thing in golf. If you cannot get in certain positions it’s Very HARD to swing properly and fast

I stretched for one month 3-5x a week. Speed went from 106 to 120. It was much easier for me to feel the right positions and get into them.

After that you need to focus on swing direction and face control

Must work on this. I'm around 102-105mph swing speed, about 240-250 carry with driver. Seeing others hit it 50yards past me without any obvious extra effort is disheartening.

Matt why don’t you do a workout video with your trainer so that we can see what we need to be working on in the gym to increase speed. I’ve been going to a place called StretchLab to increase flexibility and it too has helped greatly with eliminating pain and increasing swing speed. I’ve done weight training work in the gym, on my own, that hasn’t helped much. Obviously, I’m working on the wrong things. Some guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I think people would break their best scores much faster by focusing on short game though.. But I agree lower body strenghtening is the key. I grew up playing hockey so that helped a lot with explosiveness. But remember that your body will only let you accelerate the club as fast as far as your ability to decellerate it without injury!

Dang, man your swing speed is unreal! Waddadedication!🤣

[Hacktheplanet_]

Thanks very much mate this helped me and my dad, your two pieces of advice.1 keep loose and 2. Speed at the bottom really helped us hit more accurate shots with out letting stiffness get in the way. Thanks!🎉

[Adam-tmqh]

Impressive speed for your age and height!

[darrenhadden]

Impressive 🎉 what is your downswing move? Start clearing?

[-TroyStory-]

That’s some great power Matty!! Get a Lacrosse ball in those glutes playa… that’ll loosen you up good. 💪🏼

Spot on about the magnesium threonate, stuff is a game changer

[jerryjohnson]

I used to be a golf coach and can tell you that flexibility is more important (or at least as important) than going to the gym. I have seen 14 year old girls who don't weigh 100 pounds hitting 240 yard drives. Working on the wrong things in the gym will do more harm than good because they could mess up flexibility. If you want to increase swing speed by going to the gym, I would recommend getting a personal trainer or at least find a reputable trainer online who specializes in the golf swing. I am living proof that just going a doing a bunch of typical gym exercises like bench presses and curls will slow down your swing.

Mr Playa in chief, would you be so kind and share a video of that training? I googled hip thrusts, but was directed to a rather different content?
Much appreciated. In spite of my biblical age, i would still like to get to 115. Thanks!
