Have you familiarized yourself with using SMARTfit yet? This is a great piece of exercise equipment that addresses a vast array of different needs for your physical and cognitive skills. Workouts are offered for those that are seeing a decline in cognitive skills as well as those who may be going through rehab for knee and shoulder replacements. However, did you know that there is a program set up for golfers and pickleball players?
Benefits for Golfers
* Improved Consistency and Performance: Clients report becoming more consistent golfers and achieving better scores after using SMART Golf & Fitness programs based on SMARTfit technology.
* Increased Power and Clubhead Speed: The program focuses on developing strength training that is essential for golfers, leading to increased clubhead speed and more consistent ball striking.
* Enhanced Balance and Mobility: Participants have reported significant improvements in balance and range of motion, which can directly translate to a better golf swing and reduced need for compensatory movements.
* Injury Prevention: By improving strength, stability, and movement patterns, the program helps reduce the risk of common golfer injuries, such as lower back pain.
Benefits for Pickleball Players
* Faster Reaction Time and Agility: SMARTfit’s equipment and routines are designed to enhance reaction time, coordination, and dynamic strength, enabling players to reach for shots, pivot confidently, and recover quickly between plays.
* Improved Balance and Stability: The program’s focus on balance and stability helps players maintain control and avoid falls, twists, and strains, common occurrences in pickleball.
* Increased Paddle Speed and Explosiveness: Targeted workouts are designed to improve these key aspects of pickleball performance.
* Injury Prevention: By strengthening muscles and improving agility and stability, the program helps reduce the risk of pickleball injuries to joints like knees, shoulders, and ankles.
We offer orientations on the SMARTfit two to three times per month. For information please contact Lois Moncel at the Sports Club: Lois.Moncel@Robson.com.
