Golf Fitness

Train like a golfer. Move better. Hit further. Play longer.

Why Golf Fitness Matters

Golf isn’t just a skill sport—it’s an athletic one. If you're serious about improving your performance and staying injury-free, your time on the course needs to be backed up by smart work off it.

Whether you're chasing more clubhead speed, struggling with back pain, or just want to play pain-free for years to come, a well-structured golf-specific strength and mobility programme can make all the difference.

What Makes My Approach Different

This isn’t a generic workout. It’s training tailored to your body, your swing, and your goals.

  • TPI-Certified Expertise
    I’m one of the few Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Level 2 Certified Golf Fitness Coaches in Scotland. That means every programme starts with a movement screen that looks at the way you move, swing, and stabilise—and connects those findings directly to your performance.

  • Strength Meets Science
    With over a decade of experience in strength & conditioning, I use proven principles from elite sport to help recreational golfers train smarter, not just harder.

  • Technology That Tracks What Matters
    Every client receives regular Styku 3D body scans to objectively measure changes in posture, composition, and symmetry over time. We also use velocity-based training (VBT) to ensure you're building the kind of power that actually transfers to the tee.

How It Works

  1. Initial Movement Screen
    Using TPI protocols and functional strength assessments, I’ll identify any physical limitations that may be holding you back—from mobility restrictions to asymmetries or power leaks.

  2. Personalised Programme Design
    Your programme is built around your screen results, golfing goals, and training history. Every plan includes progressive strength, mobility, and power development—tailored to your schedule.

  3. 1:1 Coaching & Feedback
    All sessions are delivered in our private, client-only gym in East Lothian. You’ll receive hands-on coaching, constant feedback, and ongoing tweaks as you improve.

  4. Data-Driven Progress
    I use regular performance testing, body scans, and app-based progress tracking to ensure you’re getting stronger, faster, and more resilient—without guesswork.

Who It's For

  • Recreational golfers who want to increase distance and consistency

  • Players dealing with persistent niggles, injuries, or movement restrictions

  • Competitive amateurs looking for a physical edge

  • Beginners who want to build a strong foundation from the start

Golf is for life—but only if your body can keep up.

  • Golf fitness focuses on improving your physical capabilities specifically for golf performance. This includes enhancing your flexibility, core strength, balance, rotational power, and endurance to optimize your swing mechanics, prevent injuries, and improve consistency on the course. Regular personal training may focus more broadly on general fitness or aesthetic goals.

  • Not at all! Golf fitness is for golfers of all skill levels, from beginners to professionals. Whether you're looking to improve your drive distance, recover from an injury, or simply enjoy pain-free rounds, golf fitness training can be tailored to your needs and goals.

  • Yes! Golf fitness programs are designed to enhance your rotational power, stability, and coordination—all of which contribute to a stronger, more accurate swing. By addressing any physical limitations, you'll be able to generate more clubhead speed and control for better performance on the course.

  • I use a combination of functional fitness equipment and golf-specific tools, such as resistance bands, medicine balls, cable machines, and balance trainers. ‘Traditional’ strength equipment, like barbells and dumbbells also have a place. Exercises often mimic golf movements to develop strength and stability in the exact muscles and motions used during your swing.

  • Yes, I offer online golf fitness programs through Al Langlands Golf Strength. These programs include personalized workout plans, video demonstrations, and ongoing support to help you improve your game from anywhere. Check out allanglands.com for more details and to sign up.
