intro
Opportunity for performer due to PE becoming compulsory in post industrial Britain. Golf is played by both amateurs and professionals, am = no money, pro = money
Distance control
Putting 2-6 foot
Driving distance
How to plan for break on the green - long/short
Shot shaping
Club selection off tee
Muscular endurance
Chipping with wedges
Driving shot shape
Justify weakness
SMART GOAL
Specific - increase up proximity to hole on average by 2ft
M- Take data from start and end
Achievebable
R- recoreder
Timed - 8 week programme
The performers motivation for doing this smart goal
The performer Will want to do well as they want to be able to chip like role models, this has come about due to the globalisation of sport where there has been increased media coverage so more role models in the spotlight. The performer if they can perform well they will be recognised by a county golf team and will be able to pass along one of the elite sporting pathways
Periodisation
Macro - year - junior masters
Meso - 8 weeks
Mico - 2 weeks
This athlete is in the competitive phase where they are working on strategies and tactics, so less frequent, shorter training sessions
Warm up
Increase muscle elasticity
Increase body temp so enzymes work more efficiently like ATP synthase
Principles of training
S- Specificity
P - progression
O - overload
R - reversibility
T - tedium
Weeks 1/2
Drill 1: SA - MOTION ANALYSIS
Drill 2: Clock adaptation
Drill 3: Ladder adaptations
Weeks 3/4
Drill 1: SA
Drill 2: Weight distribution - club under back foot - stability
Drill 3: Workability all wedges
Weeks 5/6
Drill 1: SA
Drill 2: Open club face practice
Drill 3: Close eyes drill
Weeks 7/8
Drill 1: Measure distance to hole
Drill 2: In comp keep track on up and downs
Visual guidance
Adaptations to plyometric training
Increased recruitment of FG muscle fibres so this results in a improved coordination of motor units
Increased joint stability so less risk of injury
Cool down
To keep heart rate high, allow skeletal muscle pump to keep working and hence remove lactic acid to prevent DOMS
Ergogenic aids
Cooling aids
Creatine - increases amount of PC in the body so that training can be more intense and longer lasting
