First of all, this is another excellent P&A video. I'm going to incorporate this upper and lower body separation training into my daily routine immediately. I bought a gizmo called TMISIG, The Most Important Stretch in Golf Gizmo. Buy one; you will not regret it. The crux of the golf swing is right there at 10:00/14:48 when Piers says, "You're not going to be able to do that." I had a lame brained golf instructor who kept trying to "coach me into the full turn, left arm straight. right elbow pointing down at the ground position. I physically couldn't do it while I worked with him. Now, I can - thanks to that stretching tool. I wish that dummy who took my money had known about this TPI stuff and that TMISIG gizmo. My point is that I've had a lot of golf instructors none of whom ever tested my flexibility and mobility. All they were concerned with is that I direct some of my disposable income their way. Stick with P&A and the TPI. Most importantly, lose the jackass who just stands there and watches you swing, while saying, "That's better." By the way, Meandmygolf followers should look at the way both guys look after working out at the TPI. They have changed their body types and their swings look lots better. This stuff must work.
Interesting stuff chaps - I suspect this is an area overlooked by many club members and recreational players. Having just tried a couple of the tests, seems that physically my hips aren't capable of doing what they are required to (and I would class myself as being in pretty good shape!!) so definitely looking forward to part 2. Once again, informative stuff from you guys - keep up the good work!
Most people aren't aware of the important things required for the golf swing and TPI really help you understand what you can physically do and relate it to your golf swing.
Great insight fellas. Thank you for bringing it to us, the public who don't have the same opportunities. So glad of the mention of early extension. My age old problem may well be a pelvic one. Just off to get the Mrs thoughts on that..... Keep up the good work guys!
Making golf fitness way more complicated than it is! flexability, power ( speed and strength) and stability and rotational power is what golf involves so just base a routine round these things and good to go depending on the individual. good to bring fitness into thoughts of other golfers thou.
TPI is very simple and really helps identify what you can physically do. Fitness is not for everyone but if you are interested in it then we would strongly recommend seeing a TPI certified golf fitness instructor.
I am one and its all marketing, useless course!! did mine in ireland. just telling u my opinion. lot of good stuff but most over complicated useless stuff and pure marketing.
Dave is a genius ! Have been following tpi for a while now and am really impressed . I have problems in my upper t-spine and specifically in my right shoulder which makes it very difficult to get my hands high in the backswing ! Any advice ? Am only using a foam roller at the moment !!
At the top of my backswing, my left arm plane is too flat. I'm trying to get a greater gap between the shaft and my head at the top as at present there is very little room. I'm not physically able to make the changes due to the restrictions in my t-spine You posted a video a year or so ago about being able to lift your lower arms parallel to your body when perpendicular at your side and I find it hard to get my right arm past 70-75*. Hope you can help ! Thanks Ps I'd love to see you guy do a Turkish get up challenge !!
Your free videos are better than most you have to pay for. Excellent content and because so, my game has gotten so much better. Thanks so much!
I am deeply fascinated by the video! Very well done guys thanks! TPI is impressive!
TPI is great and really helps you understand what your body does and how it relates to your swing. No guess work.

very informative, its a wonder how little we know about the true mechanics of the golf swing
Glad you liked it. It just shows how important it is to understand what you are capable of if you are working a your game.
You guys ROCK. Perfect video that's what I need to learn and improve myself.
Very interesting... I have a very similar problem so I'm looking forward to part 2!
Part 2 and 3 are very interesting. Check them out.
Going through the TPI cert in August. Looks like a hell of an asset to a physical therapist
cincybearcats1 Yes you will find it very useful!!!

Thanks Mark. Glad you liked the video. Make sure you check out part 3 where I work on drills and exercises.
Great stuff guys!
Thanks!!
Great video guys.. I must say its a bit of an eye opener on what should be able to do but cant
Yes Scott. It shows how important it is to be aware of what you are capable of.

Hi Richard. Yes Dave is great. Can we ask why are you trying to get your hands higher. What are you trying to correct or improve?

Interesting video
Matthew Collins Hope you enjoyed it Matthew?
10:30 hips don't lie...
I'm broke, too! Are you going to share some exercises and drills to fix us?
Exercises and drills come in part 3.
You guy spelled it Tilest, on the intro banner... lol
Shake and vac
Jizzed my pants at 11:34
Piers should be more quiet....MUCH more quiet!! GREAT video though for sure
Justin Case Thanks Justin.
I disagree. He's just commenting and giving good insight. What do you want him to do? Stand there like a mute?
no wonder i drive 190m only...
Those at home are actually pretty good, better than you three
Do you guys get paid by TPI for this?
Also seeing your kneecaps gets me so hard
at min. 11 it looks like slow twerking ;)
