Golf Fitness

CES offers Minnesota’s leading Fitness Golf Conditioning services. Our Golf Conditioning Programs are rooted in research from the Titleist Performance Institute (TPI), the player athletic development arm of Titleist Inc. CES provides a wide variety of services to help your golf game, from 3D Golf Swing Analysis to custom-tailored golf fitness exercise programs.

Golf Conditioning Assessment

CES combines the TPI protocol with 20 years of direct golf-conditioning experience to customize every golfer’s Golf Fitness Program according to your medical history and physical screening performance. Our Golf Conditioning Assessment measures your ability to generate and transfer speed in your golf swing and determines how to achieve the most efficient energy transfer throughout your body. We isolate your unique physical limitations, correlate these findings to your personal swing technique, and then prescribe a custom-conditioning program. Our goal is to improve your fitness to optimize your existing golf swing rather than to suggest any wholesale swing changes. At a client’s request CES often works directly with your local Golf Pro to ensure that your fitness program is aligned with your technical swing development work.

Golf Conditioning

After completing your Golf Conditioning Assessment, one of our TPI Certified Golf Fitness Instructors will review your results and apply his/her findings to develop a custom exercise strategy that compliments your existing golf program. We use our proven mobility and stability model to increase your overall strength in a golf-specific manner.  We provide each client with an outline that includes a weekly exercise schedule, detailed instructions, and pictures of the specific exercises. Our Golf Fitness Practitioners teach you how to perform each exercise in your individual program so that you can continue to improve your fitness level on your own. The combination of weekly Private or Semi-Private sessions coupled with your individual “fitness homework” is proven to deliver impressive results for golfers of all ages and skill levels.

3D Golf Analysis

Each calendar quarter CES offers clients the ability to sign-up for a 3D Motion Capture golf lesson and analysis on-site with our nationally and internationally recognized TPI Certified Golf Professional, Gord Workum (www.3DPeakPerformanceGolf.com or www.3DPPG.com).  This [90] minute evaluation analyzes your golf swing using 3D technology to capture and correct body limitations with the goal to ultimately produce an efficient kinematic sequence for your golf swing.  Upon completing the 3D Golf Analysis you will receive a comprehensive written report summarizing the findings of your lesson and offering specific recommendations on the key areas on which to focus your efforts. Both our Golf Fitness Instructors and your local Golf Instructor can then work together to correct swing limitations and areas of asymmetry or muscle weakness.

Seasonal Golf Pro Instruction

Your local golf course may not be open yet, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t get your golf swing ready. At CES, we offer seasonal golf lessons from October 1st through May 15th. Our Golf Pros not only enhance your golf swing using the tools of TPI and video analysis, but they also work with your Golf Conditioning Practitioner to address any physical limitations affecting your swing. Whether you want to keep your golf swing from getting rusty in Minnesota’s off-season or you are preparing for a trip down South, taking swing lessons throughout the winter months and maintaining your golf fitness at CES will result in improvement in your technique and power and also allow you to train like the pros!

Minikahda Members

Golf-Specific Training is offered throughout the year to all Minikahda Club members. Sign-up in the Golf Pro Shop for Private and Semi-Private sessions available by appointment. A weekly “Yoga for Golf” Semi-Private class is also offered for up to 10 people per class. Combine your golf conditioning with a golf lesson or warm up with one of our Titleist-Certified Golf Fitness Professionals before heading to the course. CES also provides on-site support for Minikahda’s annual tournaments, such as the Member Member and the Member Guest events. On-site support includes massage, trigger point therapy, warm-up and cool-down stretching, and first aid. We also offer these tournament support services at other public and private clubs located throughout the Twin Cities.
