How to increase distance with core conditioning
In this second installment on golf fitness, I want to discuss the importance of a golfer’s core muscles. We started out with building a strong address position by engaging the quads and hamstrings, gluteus muscles and the core and primarily the lumbar area in the last article dealing with the deadlift. Now we are going to look at the internal and external obliques (the side muscles of the abdominal) to see the importance of these muscles and how we can strengthen these muscles to create compression.
There is a common phrase among amateur golfers: “hit down on it.” We see it when the tour pros play and hear it from teaching professionals, and entire books have been written about it. But hitting down on the ball is not something that you can do if your body can’t maintain forward flexion at impact. To be able to do this movement, your core, mainly your internal and external oblique, must be strong enough to maintain not only your spine angle through the swing, but more importantly increase activation at impact to maintain forward flexion.
The core muscles refer to the midsection of the body that is commonly known the “center” or “power zone.” Through ground-based movements, the core transfers power to the extremities. It is the cornerstone for all athletic movements. When these muscles are weak, golfers will typically be presented with problems in the lower back as well as hips because of the repetitive external and internal rotation that’s involved with the golf swing. This is also the reason why most golfers will come up at impact.
The graph is the sequence of the golf swing of an actual player in motion. “1” is the address position, “2” is the top of the swing and “3” is impact. It corresponds with the photo of the golfer below.
To help validate this, I will refer to a study called “Golf Swing: Core Muscle Activation” that was compiled and printed in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning in Oct. 2013. This was an article that considered 150 articles dealing with the muscles involved in the golf swing and was reduced to 16 articles that dealt primarily with the core muscles in the different phases of the golf swing. The goal of this study was to evaluate the information and look at the different core muscles and core muscle groups and how they were used within each phase of the golf swing.
When we look at the golf swing, there are two types of swings that have occurred over time. The first is the classic swing, in which rotation of both the upper trunk and the pelvis in the backswing was utilized to increase club head speed. The second, the modern swing, emphasizes what is known as “X factor.” A golfer’s shoulders are turned away from the hips in relation to the target. It is a more powerful swing, and has pretty much replaced the “classic” swing.
The ideal kinematic sequence of an efficient downswing is initiated by the pelvis rotation followed by the upper body, arms and then the club head. Because the pelvis initiates the start of the downswing, it is important that the muscles of the pelvis are conditioned. When we look at the pelvis muscles, the internal and external oblique, transverse and rectus abdominal fall under the core muscle group.
During a golf swing, the pelvic core muscles are activated throughout the four stages of the golf swing (backswing, downswing, impact and follow-through). Of the four stages, the downswing is considered the most important component and can even predict the outcome of the swing. The primary initiator of the downswing falls within the pelvic region and they are the oblique group. The remaining muscles within the pelvic core group become supporters. Even though all of the core muscles are active during the downswing, the obliques are engaged the most within the downswing and are more active during impact than any other part of the golf swing according to studies.
The main point to bring from the study is that all the core muscles work within a synergistic fashion that helps to maintain spine angle throughout the four stages of the golf swing. They also bridge the power from the pelvis to the upper torso and then back to impact which is critical for compression which leads to distance.
Here are a couple of exercises that I would suggest a golfer should incorporate in their golf fitness programs.
[youtube id=”oVExA84pDzs” width=”620″ height=”360″]
Rotational exercises within a vertical plane utilizing medicine balls, Activmotion bar, core bars or resistance bands. These exercises will engage the core muscles from the pelvis through the upper body, as well as create a stretch reflex that will enhance a golfers “X factor.”
A second version of this exercise would be a step-rotation exercise. This will also engage the same muscle groups as mentioned earlier, but would also enhances a proper kinematic sequence of the downswing starting with the lower body, upper body and then arms.
These exercises should also be done in golf posture as well because they are more specific to engaging the proper muscle groups within the golf swing.
The LPGA Tour is kicking off its 2026 season this week at Lake Nona Golf and Country Club in Orlando, and the pros are dealing with something most Florida golfers rarely face: freezing temperatures.
“It’s colder here than in the UK at the minute, which is a first,” said England’s Charley Hull during Wednesday’s media day at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions.
Even Lydia Ko, who lives at Lake Nona, seemed surprised by the cold snap. “We’re pretty much getting to below zero in celsius here, which maybe in other parts of the country they would be thankful, but when you’re in Florida it is a little bit of a surprise,” she said.
If the world’s best players are adjusting their games for cold weather, recreational golfers should, too. Here’s how to play smart when the mercury drops.
Understand What Cold Does to Your Game
Before you change anything, you need to know what you’re fighting against. Cold air is denser than warm air, which means your ball won’t fly as far. Period.
Hull noticed this immediately during practice rounds at Lake Nona. She mentioned hitting a gap wedge into the 18th hole during a previous win but needing a 4-iron during Tuesday’s practice round. That’s a difference of four or five clubs for the same shot.
Action item: Expect to lose 5-10 yards on every club in your bag when temperatures dip below 50 degrees. Plan accordingly and don’t be stubborn about club selection.
Layer Up Without Restricting Your Swing
Hull admitted she wore three pairs of pants during practice. While that might be extreme for most of us, staying warm is critical to playing well in cold conditions.
Your muscles need warmth to function properly. When you’re cold, your body tightens up and your swing gets shorter and faster. Neither of those things help you hit good golf shots.
Action item: Wear multiple thin layers instead of one bulky jacket. Look for golf-specific cold weather gear that stretches with your swing. Keep hand warmers in your pockets between shots. And don’t forget a good hat because you lose significant body heat through your head.
Take More Club Than You Think You Need
This is where ego gets in the way of good scores. When it’s cold, the ball doesn’t compress as well off the clubface. Combined with denser air, you’re looking at serious distance loss.
The pros at Lake Nona are dealing with a course that measures 6,642 yards but plays much longer this week. If they’re adjusting, you should too.
Action item: Take at least one extra club on every approach shot. In temperatures below 40 degrees, consider taking two extra clubs. It’s better to fly the ball to the back of the green than to come up short in a bunker.
Adjust Your Expectations on the Greens
Cold weather affects putting in ways most golfers don’t consider. The ball is harder and doesn’t roll as smoothly. Your hands are cold, making it harder to feel the putter. And if there’s any moisture on the greens, they’ll be slower than normal.
Ko mentioned that she still sometimes reads the greens wrong at Lake Nona despite being a member for years. Cold weather makes that challenge even tougher.
Action item: Hit putts more firmly than usual. The ball needs extra speed to hold its line on cold greens. Take a few extra practice strokes to get a feel for the speed before you putt.
Embrace the Mental Challenge
Hull said something interesting about cold weather golf: “I like the mental toughness of it.”
That’s the right attitude. Everyone on the course is dealing with the same conditions. The player who stays patient and doesn’t get frustrated by the extra difficulty will come out ahead.
Action item: Lower your expectations by a few strokes. If you normally shoot 85, accept that 90 might be a good score in 40-degree weather. Focus on solid contact and smart decisions rather than perfect shots.
Warm Up Longer and Smarter
This might be the most important tip of all. Cold muscles are tight muscles, and tight muscles get injured easily.
World No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul revealed she’s been protecting a wrist injury that bothered her late last season. Cold weather makes those kinds of injuries more likely if you don’t prepare properly.
Action item: Spend at least 20 minutes warming up before your round. Start with stretching, then hit easy wedge shots before working up to your driver. Keep moving between shots on the course to maintain body heat and flexibility.
The pros at Lake Nona this week will adapt and compete at the highest level despite the cold. You can do the same at your local course by following these tips and keeping a positive attitude.

Brooks Koepka is back on the PGA Tour, and whether you love him or hate him, the guy knows how to win when it matters. After his LIV Golf stint, the five-time major champion returns this week at the Farmers Insurance Open.
What makes Koepka fascinating? He doesn’t fit the mold. His swing isn’t textbook. He doesn’t obsess over mechanics. Yet he’s won three PGA Championships and two U.S. Opens, regularly making it look easier than guys with prettier swings.
So, what can average golfers learn from someone who treats the game so differently? Quite a bit.
Stop Overthinking Every Shot
Koepka describes his approach as “reactionary” rather than mechanical. While most tour pros grind over swing thoughts, Brooks sees the target and hits it. No mental checklist.
This might be the most valuable lesson for weekend golfers who’ve watched too many YouTube swing videos.
How to actually do this:
On the range, hit five balls where you stare at the target for three seconds prior to addressing the ball. Don’t think about grip or stance. Just burn that target into your brain. You’ll be shocked at how pure you hit it when your brain focuses on where the ball is going instead of how you’re swinging.
Next time you play, give yourself a rule: Once you pull the club, you’ve got 15 seconds to hit. Koepka is one of the fastest players on tour because he doesn’t give his brain time to sabotage him.
If you feel tension in your hands at address, you’re trying to control too much. Koepka’s grip pressure is famously light. Loosen up until the club almost feels like it might slip, then add just enough pressure to hold on. That’s your swing thought: soft hands, see the target.
This approach works better under pressure. When you’re standing over that shot with water left and OB right, the last thing you need is a mental checklist. See it, feel it, hit it.
Play to Your Strengths (Even If They’re Not Pretty)
Koepka uses a strong grip that wouldn’t pass muster in some teaching circles. But he’s built his game around what works for him, elite driving distance and recovery skills. He doesn’t try to be someone he’s not.
Here’s how to build your game like Brooks:
Look at your last five rounds and figure out where you’re actually gaining strokes. Bombing it off the tee, but can’t hit greens? Lean into it. Play courses where distance matters more than precision. On tight holes, grip down on your 3-wood instead of trying to thread a driver through a keyhole you’ll miss seven times out of ten.
Koepka knows he can scramble, so he’s not afraid to miss greens. If you’re deadly from 50 to 75 yards, start leaving yourself those distances on the par 5’s instead of going for them in two every time.
Know when to take your medicine. Koepka in the trees at the PGA? He’s punching out to 100 yards, not trying to bend a 6-iron around three oaks. You’re in the rough with a flyer lie and water short? Hit your 8-iron to the middle and move on. That’s not playing scared, that’s playing smart.
Save Your Best for When It Counts
Here’s a wild stat: Koepka’s putting average in majors is often more than a full stroke better per round than in regular events. He elevates when pressure is highest.
How does an amateur tap into that gear? It’s not about trying harder, it’s about caring differently.
Here’s what actually works:
Decide which rounds matter to you. Club championship? Member-guest? That annual trip with college buddies? Circle those dates and treat them differently. Koepka doesn’t care much about regular tour events, but majors? That’s when he locks in.
Two weeks before your big round, change your practice. Stop beating balls mindlessly. Play nine holes in which every shot has consequences. Miss the fairway? Hit from the rough on the next hole too. Three-putt? Twenty push-ups. Koepka’s practice intensity ramps up before majors because he’s rehearsing pressure, not just swings.
Develop a between-shot routine that resets your brain. Koepka is famous for his blank expression after bad shots. Try this: After any shot, take three deep breaths while walking, then find something specific to notice, a tree, a cloud, someone’s shirt. That’s your reset button. By the time you reach your ball, the last shot is gone.
The Bottom Line
Brooks Koepka’s return reminds us there’s no single path to success in golf. His “substance over style” approach proves that results matter more than looking good.
You don’t need a perfect swing; you need a reliable one that holds up under pressure. You don’t need to hit every shot in the book; you need the shots you can count on. And you don’t need to play great every time; you need to play great when it matters.
Welcome back, Brooks. Thanks for the reminder that golf is ultimately about getting the ball in the hole, not winning style points.

Blades Brown made a big impression last week in the California desert, and not just because he’s only 18. He put up numbers that would catch any weekend golfer’s attention. Most of us won’t hit 317-yard drives or find 86% of our greens in regulation, but there’s a lot to learn from how Brown managed his game at The American Express.
Here are three practical lessons from his performance that you can use on your own course this weekend.
Step 1: Give Priority to Accuracy Over Distance Off The Tee
Brown’s driving stats are impressive. He averaged almost 318 yards off the tee, ranking 12th in the field. More importantly, he hit 76.79% of his fairways, tying for fourth place in the tournament.
Think about that ratio for a second. Brown could have swung harder, chased more distance and tried to overpower the course. Instead, he played smart golf and kept his ball in play.
Your Action Item: Next time you’re on the tee box, ask yourself a simple question before pulling the driver. Do you need maximum distance here, or do you need to be in the fairway? If there’s trouble lurking or the hole doesn’t demand every yard you can muster, take something off your swing. Grip down an inch. Make a three-quarter swing. Do whatever it takes to find the short grass. Brown’s approach illustrates that fairways lead to greens, and greens lead to birdies. He made 22 of them last week, along with an eagle.
The math is simple. When you’re hitting three out of every four fairways like Brown did, you’re giving yourself legitimate looks at the green with your approach shots. That’s when scoring happens.
Step 2: Commit To Hitting More Greens
This is where Brown really separated himself. He hit 62 of 72 greens in regulation, an 86.11% clip that tied for first in the entire field. Read that again. An 18-year-old kid tied for the lead in one of the most important ball-striking statistics in professional golf.
How did he do it? By keeping his ball in the fairway (see Step 1) and giving himself clean looks with mid-irons and wedges.
Your Action Item: Start tracking your greens in regulation. You don’t need a fancy app or a statistics degree. Just mark down whether you hit the green in the regulation number of strokes. Par 3s in one shot. Par 4s in two shots. Par 5s in three shots.
Once you know your baseline, set a goal to improve it by 10%. If you’re currently hitting five greens per round, aim for six. The beauty of this approach is that it forces you to think strategically about club selection and shot shape. Brown’s strokes gained approach number was positive (0.179), meaning he was better than the field average. You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to be on the dance floor more often.
When you hit more greens, you eliminate the need for heroic short game shots. Brown only had to scramble 10 times all week, and he got up and down 70% of the time. That’s solid, but the real story is that he rarely put himself in scrambling situations to begin with.
Step 3: Minimize Mistakes And Stay Patient
Here’s the stat that jumps off the page: Brown made only three bogeys all week. Three. In four rounds of professional golf against the best players in the world.
He also made just one double bogey. That kind of clean card doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when you play within yourself, avoid the big miss and trust that pars are never bad scores.
Your Action Item: Before your next round, decide that you’re going to play boring golf. No hero shots over water. No driver on tight holes just because you can. No aggressive pins when there’s a safe side of the green.
Brown’s performance shows us that consistency beats flash every single time. He didn’t lead the field in any single strokes gained category, but he was solid across the board. That’s how you post numbers and cash checks.
Give these three steps a try. Your scorecard will thank you.

Hi Dave,
Congrats on a nice article, I really like the fact that you have drawn on research to support your recommendations. For more there is no doubting that the core muscles and especially the obliques are an essential focus for strengthening exercises.
I wonder if there might be a more effective way of training them for the golf swing than that low load cable exercises such as those demonstrated in the video. I feel as though a more effective approach might be to use faster and more reactive movements and anti rotational and extension exercises (bracing).
Loaded rotational movements that attempt to replicate the golf action feel like they could actually have a detrimental effect on the sequencing of the golf swing rather a positive one?
Do you know of any research that looks uses a core training intervention and measures segmental speed during the golf swing? Either way I would love to hear your thoughts on the matter.
thanks
Nick

Hey Nick, you are correct with the suggestion of using faster and more reactive movements and anti rotational and extension. I use a great product called Activmotion Bar in my training that provides this form of training. Check it out at Activmotionbar.com. This product is amazing. I have tested it out with my K-vest (caputures rotational speed) with several clients from 20 handicap to +2. The result are amazing. Also, by loading the upper body, the proper sequence of lower body, upper body and arms are reinforced. To enforce the sequence, I will have the client step first (as demonstrated in video) then rotate with the load.
Thanks for you suggestions. They are spot on.
