PGFA GOLF FITNESS

Fluid Strength™ Training By Larry Castro

The essence of the golf swing lies in its motion, not merely in static positions. Traditional golf instruction often emphasizes positions and segments of the swing in isolation, leading to a fragmented understanding. This approach typically results in students internalizing a disjointed swing rather than a seamless, fluid motion.


At PGFA™, we advocate for and train in the concept of FLUID STRENGTH™. Our instruction and development focus on nurturing fluid movements, integrating this dynamic into our fitness training and golf instruction.


A golfer's foundation and core are crucial for achieving a strong, stable, and fluid balance. Without this core strength, golfers often resort to compensatory maneuvers to create an illusion of balance.

This leads to a heightened awareness and apprehension of gravity's effects, fostering mental fear and instability in positions where they haven't developed trust. The inevitable result is tension and a swing that lacks fluidity.


The key is to attune to our bodies and cultivate natural motions, thereby developing FLUID STRENGTH™. This involves:

1. Training with fluid motions.
2. Practicing with fluid motions.
3. Employing terminology that reinforces the concept of FLUID STRENGTH™.

Our training methods and golf swing instruction are designed to foster these robust, fluid motions. This doesn't imply a disregard for understanding the starting points and transitions of the swing. Instead, it's about demonstrating the biomechanics motions necessary to achieve these stages effectively.
