MattF Posted June 26, 2018 Author Share Posted June 26, 2018 And when you go back to eating "normally" you'll put that weight right back on, plus, there's not much nutritional value in the rice. That might be a good plan for a jockey but not for a fat bloke like me looking long term. kardboard.kid, Rickp and JAGolfore 3 Quote In the bag: Driver: TSR2 Project X HZRDUS Black 5.5 Fairway: Apex UW 19° & 21° Project X HZRDUS Smoke RDX Black 5.5 Irons: JPX 923 HMP 5-PW UST Mamiya Recoil 95 F4 Wedges: T-22 Denim Copper 48°, 52° & 56° UST Mamiya Recoil 95 F4 Putter Sycamore 005 Wide Blade Bag: Alpha Convoy 514 Balls: Chrome Soft X Cart: CaddyLite ONE Ver. 8 God Bless America, God save the King, God defend New Zealand and thank Christ for Australia!

ole gray Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I have some great news concerning my wife and her health. She has been following my progress at the gym and not going unnoticed is my overall physical and mental well being. She told me last night that I had influenced her to renew her gym membership and hop on board. We are in it to win it! tommc23, TSauer, JAGolfore and 6 others 9 Quote Ping G430 Max Driver 10.5 Degree Titleist TSR1 4, 5, & 6 Hybrids Titleist T350 Irons 7 - W48 Cleveland CBX ZipCore 52 56 & 60 Degree Wedges LAB Mezz Max Broomstick Putter / TPT Shaft (Platinum @ 45/78) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kardboard.kid Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Eating right is only part of the plan. As many here have stated there is work either at the gym or at home, and that is where the real results will be found. Personally I want to build some muscle mass without trying to look like Arnold. I found this cool app called 6 pack in 30 days. There is some truth to the workout as my stomach muscles are not happy. Not sure I can turn this spare or even flat tire into a six pack though.

And I mean everyone can do the work out thing and make gains.Im having trouble grasping why I never made gain in golf.And this is with a great instructor looking over me.Why is the gym so different and more gratifying?I missed this one before. A few things. 1. While I don't live up North I did for long enough to know that the season is still young. 2. Better fitness means your body has changed and so has your swing. It's easy enough to see from my before and after that there are moves I'm able to make in my swing that I couldn't at this time a year or even 6 months ago. But it takes sometime to reprogram that new (in my case old) swing back in. I've got it on the range but it doesn't always make it to the course. I'm hopeful for today if the rain stop. So are you having good moments with your swing? If you are that's going to become your new normal. 3. Golf is way more mental than we give it credit for. At times, lots of times, what we chalk up to being the result of a poor swing was actually a mental error somewhere along the way. The wrong swing thoughts or internal business triggered the wrong swing sequence producing an anything but intended result. Hang in there, better golf is coming.
