Electro muscle stimulation for Golfers
01. The challenge
G
olf is a physically demanding sport, and golfers of all levels can benefit from improving their fitness, endurance, swing, and ball speed. However, there are a few specific areas that golfers often struggle with:
- Core strength: A strong core is essential for a powerful golf swing. When the core is weak, it can lead to a loss of balance and control, which can result in mis-hits.
- Flexibility: Flexibility is important for a full range of motion, which can help golfers generate more power and accuracy.
- Strength: Strength is important for being able to hit the ball hard and far. However, it is important to focus on strength training that is specific to golf, as too much muscle mass can actually make it difficult to swing the club properly.
- Endurance: Golf is a long game, and golfers need to be able to maintain their energy levels for 18 holes. Endurance training can help golfers stay strong and focused throughout the round.

02. The solution
Exercise, recovery and nutrition all play a huge role in improving your sporting performance with EMS training becoming increasingly popular among professional athletes, including golfers.
In fact, several prominent golfers have incorporated EMS into their regular training regimen and seen significant improvements in their performance on the course including Jon Rahm, currently ranked #3 in the world by the Official World Golf Ranking.
Rahm started using electrical muscle stimulation to enhance his workouts and improve his swing mechanics. He credits his success in part to his use of EMS technology not only for improving major muscle groups but also for isolating smaller muscle groups that are essential for fine motor control during his backswing and follow-through. As a result, he has seen an increase in both driving distance and accuracy.
Here are 6 ways you should be focussing on when you want to improve your game as a golfer:
- Strength training: Golf is a physically demanding sport, and golfers need to be strong in order to hit the ball hard and far. Strength training can help golfers build muscle and improve their strength.
- Flexibility training: Flexibility is important for a full range of motion, which can help golfers generate more power and accuracy. Flexibility training can help golfers improve their range of motion and reduce the risk of injuries.
- Cardio training: Cardio training can help golfers improve their endurance and stamina. Cardio training can help golfers stay strong and focused throughout the round.
- Stretching: Stretching is important for maintaining flexibility and preventing injuries. Golfers should stretch before and after each round of golf.
- Proper nutrition: Eating a healthy diet is important for overall health and fitness. Golfers should eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. They should also drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.
- Getting enough sleep: Getting enough sleep is essential for recovery and muscle growth. Golfers should aim for 7-8 hours of sleep per night.
03. The result
Our golf training program is designed to improve your performance on and off the green. By combining functional movements and EMS technology to build strength, power, rotational flexibility and mobility.
EMS will not only improve your golf game but your muscles will recover faster with increased blood flow and lactic acid distribution so you are always ready for your next golf game.
Here are some of the benefits you can expect from EMS (electro muscle stimulation) training;
- Improved Swing Speed: By strengthening your muscles, you can generate more power in your swing. This can lead to longer drives and more accurate shots.
- Improve your accuracy: By improving your range of motion, you will be able to make more precise swings. This can help you to hit the ball where you want it to go, even when you are facing difficult shots.
- Reduced risk of injury: By strengthening your muscles and improving your range of motion, you can make your body more resistant to injury. This is especially important for golfers, who are at risk of injuries such as back pain and shoulder pain.
Our expert trainers will devise a personalised training and nutrition plan with other helpful tips to get you stronger, fitter and more energised so you can play your best golf game, experience optimal recovery and create sustainable habits for greater overall wellbeing.
