Football (Soccer):

  • Upper Body Strength – Our weight exercises engage your fast twitch muscles to build lean muscle making your upper body stronger without packing on heavy muscle slowing you down.
  • Fast Feet – Footballers need fast feet to get past their opposition. Our footwork drills will give you explosive bursts of speed to give you the edge over the first 5-10 yards which is key in football.

Golf:

  • Mental Toughness – Like Boxing, Golf is as much a mental game as it is physical, probably more so in golf. In our all padwork drills you must be switched on for the duration to correct complete the fast combinations that we throw at you. This training prepares you well for the mental aspect of golf when you need to concentrate on each shot for a full round of 18 hole in a tournament.
  • Upper Body Strength – You can now just focus on your technique and not worry about having to smash the ball to get the distance in your shots, as you will become naturally stronger with our 2kgs fast-twitch weight exercises. You will build lean muscle making your upper body stronger without packing on heavy muscle slowing you down. Like our current golfing client Stephen: “I can hit my driver 220-240 yards and more-importantly straight, because of the power I have built up through these exercises, I can now focus solely on my swing technique knowing that I have the power there from my training”.
  • Flexibility – You need to have good flexibility to swing a golf club. The action is very much like throwing a punch in boxing. You need to use your whole body (including your legs) to get the weight behind both a punch and a golf swing. We will show you how to do this and the Big Drives will come naturally!
