Well done making some efforts this winter. Core strength is important, but so is the rest of the body. Also good to check in on your mobility and stability 💪🏼
@@joannekendal2785 Hi , Im not sure on the exact algorithm that TPI use to calculate the Golf Fitness Hcp but the rotation tests will be the most important. Essentially, if you fail any section on rotation that will significantly reduce your score and will be marked as a priority for technique and injury prevention.
Fantastic video Joe! I was considering taking the TPI Level 1 Certification course, to assess myself and friends, so this video saved me a lot of money :) You mentioned in the video (25:30) that most golfers rotate better on their backswing (right side for right handed golfer) than their downswing (left side for right handed golfer). This is definitely something I discovered doing the assessment. I felt restricted in my hip/upper left leg area, more than the left shoulder. Are there specific exercises for this type of restriction? I also failed the left leg single balance (maybe related to left side rotation restriction...?), and was Yellow on the right leg single balance. I passed everything else. I'm a 10 handicap golfer, mid-50s male. Main thing I work on with my golf coach are drills to prevent early extension. Any advice is appreciated! Love the channel and will definitely watch more and check out the app.
Thanks for taking the time to drop a message! Definitely some things you can do to clear up the rotation to the right. I have some follow along routines on UA-cam and on the app (not sure how to link them here sorry!!) The balance tests will depend a lot on stability, but also foot structure, posture and coordination. The early extension could be coming from many different factors so worth exploring every aspect!
Thnx for the vid! :) Working out this winter to gain better core strength and curious about other areas.

Could I film myself while doing these tests, send them to you and get a TPI screening?
Yes! We offer this as a free service on the macro golf app. You can download the app for free from the App Store
