Week 2 - off season work out

Day 5 

OK!! I can touch the floor when stretching again without having stomach muscle seize up or massive Charlie horses.  It has taken years to get this far after colon surgery.  I am really happy.

Started out with stretching hamstrings and neck physical therapy.  Also making dramatic improvements with my neck.  The pain level is to the point that I do not have to take any type of pain killers!  Another wonderful milestone.

Then I went into Lateral lunges and forward lunges.

Day 132.  Spent 20 minutes hitting balls at the indoor practice room;  indoor, off a mat, into a net, real balls.  9-iron and 6-iron.  

Day 133:  same as day 132.  That's not particularly good for variety, but after failing to reach the 15hcp benchmark on approach shots last round, I'm a little worried.

Day 325

Forgot today was supposed to be a superspeed workout day, noted for tomorrow.

Worked on takeaway/backswing piece with 7-iron. I’ve mostly stopped regripping with my right hand between A1-A2, so I’m now moving into combing this rehearsal with rest of the backswing and focusing more on fully turning the hips to the point of feeling stretch in my right hip/hamstring/glute area.

Day 311 - November 3, 2020

Hit some balls downtown. First time really doing drills again for awhile, really looking forward to getting back to doing the work. But I'll probably play a few rounds this week before really getting into the swing of things for the winter.

Day #11

worked on Trail Elbow agsin

Day 6

Duplicated yesterday's workout with stretching, lunges, SKLZ club work out, core sets

35 minutes total.

Lunges were a killer today. My legs were rebelling

Day 326

Didnt have energy for a superspeed workout, so did some more takeaway/backswing rehearsal work, and also hit a bunch of balls focusing on tempo. I’ve noticed anecdotally that I make much better contact with a good tempo, so I consciously focused on tempo when hitting balls while not worrying about other swing elements.

Day 59 - Did some mirror work on my hip turn and trail elbow during the takeaway.

Day 134:  Same (9- and 6-iron, indoors, real balls, off a mat, into a net);  did this tonight after both work and evening TV.  I didn't feel like wandering outside to do Speed Sticks, although I know I should.

Day 12

Beautiful weather today, went to range and practiced full swing trying to incorporate the COVID Day 1-3 drills.  Still inconsistent but had some really good contact when I did it correctly.

Day 7

Spent 20 minutes putting on my very old The Master Putting System.  Worked on that 8" putt - low impact day

Day 312 - November 4, 2020

Played 18 holes (in 3:15, walking, with a foursome) at Lawrence Park Golf Club. Shot about 72. Won the back nine 3-3-3 Hi-Lo-To match with 17.5 points.

Day 30: A little work on my priority piece with just rehearsal swings,

[Darkfrog]

Day 327

Superspeed workout, and some mirror work on takeaway/backswing. Hit a few balls focusing on tempo.

[Shindig]

Day 135.  During the work day, went to my adjacent practice room to hit 9- and 6-iron full swing practice.  I hit a total of three dozen balls during the day (give or take). 

[boogielicious]

Day 31: I could not get a tee time today. Everything was jam packed due to the weather. So went to a range and worked on my priority piece. I can tell by flight when I early extend. I come too far inside and over draw.

Day 60 - Got my Evolvr feedback, working on my hand/clubhead positioning at A1/A2. Doing some drills, similar to Covid Practice Day 1.
