    Meet the man who got Phil Mickelson into his best shape ever by Sean Cochran and Ben Parsons "I leave it up to the players for what works best for them. They know their bodies. In the off season with no competitions, we’re in the gym four times a week for about 90 minutes. In season, it’s 45-60 minutes and we drop it down to three times a week. The program is broken down into mobility, flexibility and exercise. We work on joint mobility and muscular flexibility. Once we focus on those two phases of the training, then we do some strengthening work for the hips, shoulders and focus on the core. Then we go to power training, lower body, upper body and rotary power training and then we finish with total body strength training which would be lower extremities and upper extremities. That’s how we section it out." "I try to provide the information I give to my professional athletes to the general population. I feel one of the largest challenges for the amateur golfer is being provided the correct information on how to train and how to improve yourself. That’s what I do." - Sean Cochran Read More

    Phil Mickelson's Blueprint for Getting Stronger & Hitting Farther After 50 by Ron Kaspriski “The point is to prep his body for the more vigorous part of his workout,” Cochran says, “and what is required in a proper swing when you’re moving laterally, rotationally, vertically. ” From there, he will finish his prep work by doing a series of what Cochran calls “joint-integrity exercises,” trying to keep things like the pelvis and shoulders as strong and functional as possible—knowing that they can be problem areas for aging golfers who neglect them. During down times from competition, Mickelson transitions his workout to power exercises. These are the movements that help improve fast-twitch fiber. As you might expect, Mickelson focuses on exercises that boost the multi-plane movements of golf and help recruit more power from his body and the ground—things like medicine ball rotational throws for his upper body and box jumps for his lower body (yep, Mickelson can still get off the ground). Speed is the key to these moves, so he does them using only light resistance. Read More
