What are the parallels between an NFL player and your average golfer? More than you might think. Recently, NFL legend Jason Kelce asked himself a simple question: Could I still complete an NFL workout now that I’m retired? The result was a humbling reminder that even elite athletes lose strength, speed and capability if they stop training for the demands of their sport.
And the truth is, the same principle applies to you and your golf game. If you want to generate rotational power, control the clubface, maintain mobility and swing consistently, you have to train those physical capabilities with purpose. Your body adapts to what you do most often — stop challenging it, and it stops being ready to perform.
“Use it or lose it” isn’t just a phrase — it’s physiology. And if you’re serious about improving, staying strong and playing your best golf for years to come, that commitment to consistent movement, strength, and intention is how you truly Own Your SSWING.
