S2 E3: The Evolution of Golf Fitness with Mike Carroll, Swing Speeds and the Big Cat's Struggles

We're joined by Mike Carroll, founder of Fit For Golf, and a fountain of knowledge and understanding about golf fitness! We share some golf trip tales, ongoing handicap hurdles, and Mike's client Paul's inspiring journey to better fitness, even in his 70s. 

Our conversation takes a swing at the changing landscape of golf performance. With more resources at the disposal of today's golfers and an influx of raw athletes, the sport's competitive nature has evolved. Our discussion with Mike sheds light on how physical training can revolutionise golf and why modern equipment, while forgiving, doesn't necessarily improve skill. We also tackle Tiger Woods, musing about the possibility of his return to former glory. What would his life be like without golf? How does his image change with every step on the golf course?

We then navigate the world of fitness wearables and their role in the beautiful game. How accurate are these gadgets in guiding training schedules? Are they promoting healthier lifestyles? Mike shares his experience and views on these smart devices. From swing speed training's impact to the importance of distance, we dive deep into the intricacies of golf. Not forgetting... the quiz!
