Ep 232: Hit It 250 Last Year. 220 This Year. Here's Why
About this episode
Chris Finn discusses the reasons golfers lose distance and how to regain it through targeted training.
You didn't lose your distance because you're getting older. You lost it because your body changed and your training didn't. In this solo episode, Chris Finn breaks down exactly why golfers in their 40s, 50s, and 60s lose club speed - and why age is the correlation, not the cause. Using data from over 15,000 golfers, Chris walks through what's actually driving your distance loss and the exact sequence to reverse it. You'll learn: Why the "I'm just getting older" explanation is costing you 30+ yards The three mobility limitations that shorten your backswing and kill your speed Why your "seven iron" probably isn't a seven iron anymore How low-weight, high-rep workouts are neurologically training your body to go slower The three-phase fix - mobility, strength, and transfer training - and the realistic timeline for each Why golfers who do the right things gain 20-30 yards in year one and only lose 2 mph over the next decade while everyone else loses 10 The distance you've lost isn't gone forever.
