Cheeky Mid Weeky Your Degree Didn’t Prepare You To Work With Athletes
Discover how golf performance training has evolved from Tiger Woods to today's elite athletes with Director of Fitness Jeremy Golden. This strength and conditioning deep-dive covers the unique demands of golf athletes, common injuries (back, hips, ankles, and surprisingly the neck), and why traditional band-only training isn't enough.
Learn practical programming strategies for golfers of all levels, from college athletes to 78-year-old amateurs hitting 200-pound hex bar deadlifts. Jeremy shares his career journey through college basketball, women's rowing, and now private sector golf performance, offering honest insights on work-life balance, sustainable coaching practices, and the need for unified strength and conditioning education.
Whether you're training golfers, working in private sector fitness, or navigating your coaching career, this episode delivers actionable advice on periodization, facility constraints, communication with athletes, and building long-term success in strength coaching beyond the traditional college sports grind culture.
