The past two weeks have been all about foundational strength for me. I started as I always do with my warm up, then went into "breathing sets" of sumo deadlifts and front squats: on both I went to 3 working sets of 8 reps. This was followed by a timed set consisting of inch worms, single leg box jumps, and sled pushes for agility and conditioning.

Hour and twenty minutes cardio, interval spin bike stuff, and thirty minutes of my usual morning stretching, calisthenics and kung fu forms. Later I will walk/jog/run to get to my daily 8 miles and spend some time on the bike again typically do about an hour in the evening watching TV but it's not as intense as AM ride.

Bursitis in my shoulder has been near constant since August so no heavy stuff. Just the little I do in my martial arts warm up and forms keeps it irritated.

Spin 1 hour

1 mile run

General stretching before squats, lunges, split leg lifts, dive bomber pushups and several minutes holding wushu stances (horse and bow)

farmers walk

hammer curls

That's about all my shoulder can handle still very sore. Tomorrow it's going to be nice most I've been able to play is 7 holes so we'll see how it goes.

Bad luck this month. Tripped and went down hard after clipping uneven sidewalk running last night. Tore my right hand up and it feels like a little finger sprain. With left shoulder bursitis and now this going to be tough. I assume this ends my golf for handicap season being we just have 15 days left.

So today just cardio and some stretches after what has already been a limited month of lifting.

1 hour spin and 1 mile ride. Later I will see what I can get in but it's probably just going to be more time on the bike. Kids will be everywhere so running wouldn't be much fun. Probably wouldn't do it anyway. With it getting dark earlier I've been meaning to get over to REI and pick up a headlamp so I can see. Just a few days ago I told a friend I was going to fall and sure enough I did.

If you don't mind me asking where is this program from? 

Doesn't look very effective unless the goal isn't just to stay active?

    • Starting over - missed posting yesterday and it had been less than 28 days since last off day….today was tempo drill day.  Worked on takeaway and moving smoothly into weight shift.  
    • I know it is probably dependent on a lot of factors, but how windy does it have to be out before you need to start guessing on how much it would influence the break of your putt?  When I played at Bandon, it was like 25-30 mph winds. The caddies talked about the wind negating break. The only time I had it visually influence my putt was on hole 18 at Bandon Dunes. My missed my putt on the high side of a pretty severe breaking putt. The slope around the hole was in the 2-3 degree range. As the ball was about to come to a stop, the wind gusted and pushed the ball half a rotation into the cup.  The rest of the week I thought it had no influence at all. I was thinking, is it just over thinking to try to account for the wind?   
    • Day 310 - 2025-08-06 Went downtown in the late afternoon and got nearly two hours of work in. Not a ton of breaks. Was blasting the TS at the end, from a HomePod and two TVs. 😄 
    • I watched this video of his last night: I don't hate him like @boogielicious apparently does and thought this was a pretty good premise so I gave it a shot.  Not the worst thing in the world and I especially liked the premise.  He's got a lot of air to fill by himself, which he isn't great at, but in doing so, you get some decent insight into how his brain works while setting up shots/putts.
    • So driver is longer than all the other clubs and gear effect plays a bigger part with driver than anything else. If you're hitting it out of the heel it could slice even if you have the face square. Could try some foot spray or impact tape and check that. Other thing is if the shaft is different in how it flexes or how flexible it is it could be affecting your swing somewhat. Driver also has the straightest face, so while with a 4 iron it might fade, with driver that can wind up being a slice with the same face angle at impact.
