Speed, Strength & Smart Training with Mike Carroll (Fit For Golf)

In episode 38, we sit down with Mike Carroll from Fit For Golf to break down the key components of golf swing speed — mobility, strength, and power — and the best ways to train them. We explore gender differences, force production (wrist, ground, and rotation), and how tension contributes to generating speed. Mike also unpacks common myths around “stability” in golf fitness and shares insights on golf-specific vs. general athletic training — including whether golf can ever be trained as systematically as other Olympic sports.
