Starting a strength program
Lifting_Too_Much_Weight

Last week we talked about things NOT to do when starting a strength training program.  If you avoid making a lot of those common mistakes then you will probably be on a good path with your program.  So now that you know what not to do, let’s talk about the easiest way to start a basic  strength training program.

Assess, Don’t Guess

You will always hear me say an assessment is the first step when working towards any goal.  Can you start a program without an assessment?  Sure.  But entering into a fitness program without an assessment will possibly lead to a less efficient program or even cause injuries.  Easiest place to start with an assessment is our Level 1 TPI Screen.  Based on those results you may be able to jump right into a program or further assessments, such as our Selective Functional Movement Assessment or our Strength and Power Assessments, may be needed to provide us with more information.

A NOTE ON OUR YOUTH ON COURSE PROGRAM 
YOC_Banner

One of our core beliefs at Miami Valley Golf is believing that every child deserves access to the life changing opportunities that our game can provide regardless of socioeconomic status.  

With that in mind, in 2018, we teamed up with Youth on Course to bring this national program to our Miami Valley area.  

Youth on Course members can play at participating courses for $5 or less during allotted times, after paying a small membership fee which is also $5. 

Our foundation (Miami Valley Golf Foundation) supports this program locally by supplementing the difference in green fees to the participating facility.  

Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic we will need additional assistance as some of our opportunity for fund raising will not be available.  If possible, we encourage you to support this program.  

An easy online contribution can be made here. 

Thank you for your consideration!
