Why 18 Holes Of Golf Doesn’t Have To Mean 48 Hours Of Back Pain

How To Get Back To Pain-Free Golf

Hi, I’m Pete Fry – Movement Specialist – and I’ve been helping people get out of pain since 2014.

Lower back pain is common in golf and it usually goes something like this…

You start the round feeling ok – your swing feels good.

Half way around your lower back starts to stiffen up.

You start guarding your swing so you don’t make things worse.

The next day you wake up with stiffness or pain in your lower back and reach for the anti-inflammatories.

After 48hrs the stiffness has gone and you’re ready to play again…but you know the same thing will happen next time you play.

How To Eliminate Lower Back Pain In Golf

Step 1: Biomechanical Swing Assessment

The first step is a Biomechanical Swing Assessment.

By analysing your swing – joint by joint, muscle by muscle – we uncover exactly where your movement is breaking down.

This is where we discover your hidden movement compensations that are the cause of your problem!

Step 2: Skill Development

Next we take you through the process of Skill Development.

This is where we help you find your best movements that are strong, powerful and pain-free, as well as targeting specific muscles.

Here, we create a series of custom-built exercises for you to use as daily practice or part of your warm up to solidify your new skills.

Step 3: Performance Training

Finally we introduce Performance Training.

This is where you train strength, power and endurance using your newly developed skills.

This beats the off-the-shelf strength and conditioning programs hands-down, as every movement is specifically geared to you, your ability, and your goals.

Testimonials

Back To Golf After Chronic Glute Pain

“Working with Pete has been such a relief. I initially reached out for help with a stubborn pain in my glutes that was really slowing me down, and Pete’s assessment and treatment got straight to the root of the problem.

Beyond just getting me out of pain, he took the time to address the underlying movement patterns so the issue wouldn’t keep returning. 

What really set the experience apart was Pete’s focus on long-term strength and performance.

He spent time walking me through proper weightlifting technique to build solid foundation strength, and even tailored golf-specific movement drills to help my mobility and power on the course. I can’t recommend Pete highly enough to anyone looking to move better and recover properly.”

Back To Golf After Hip Replacement Surgery

“In the short space of time that Pete has been working with me, only a matter of six weeks, I have been delighted and impressed by the progress and improvement he has been able to help me achieve post hip-operation.

His approach is clear, evidence-based and systematic, but also feels personal and tailored to my individual needs (and weaknesses.)

I really like Pete’s positive approach and mindset and can honestly say I look forward to my sessions with him. As a ‘middle-aged, non-performance athlete’, I feel I receive the same care and focus as any top-notch sportsperson, and the goal is always what will improve my daily life in tangible, achievable ways.

Highly recommend him to anyone.“
