GOLF PERFORMANCE TESTING DAYS
Golfers of every level benefit from understanding how their body actually moves. Whether you’re playing competitively, chasing extra distance or simply wanting to enjoy the game pain‑free into retirement, our Golf Performance Testing Days are designed to give you the data and guidance to perform better.
THE DETAILS
Where: We have upcoming golf performance testing days in Perth and Paisley. View the details at the link here
Who: Testing sessions will be run by Andy Todd and Paul Wilkinson, Directors at Athlete Focused Central, Tayside and Fife. Andy and Paul are experienced strength and conditioning, and golf professionals who work closely with all levels of golfers to help them improve golf performance.
What: A series of golf-specific physical tests followed by a one-to-one discussion about your game, your goals and the best next steps for you. We’ll be offering two testing options on the day:
Lite Testing
A focused snapshot with clear, practical feedback
Pro Testing
More in‑depth testing with extended discussion around performance, training and progression
The cost of either option is fully redeemable against your first month if you decide to move forward with one of our golf performance programmes.
WHO IT’S FOR?
We work with golfers of all levels from social and competitive club golfers to retired golfers looking to play longer and healthier.
This day is ideal for golfers who want to:
- Increase clubhead speed and power
- Improve consistency
- Reduce injuries and stay pain‑free
- Understand the physical reasons behind their good (and not‑so‑good) shots
- Play golf with more confidence
WHAT HAPPENS ON THE DAY?
You’ll complete a series of golf‑specific physical tests, followed by a one‑to‑one discussion about your game, your goals and the best next steps for you.
Countermovement Jump
This test shows how much power you can produce through your lower body and how evenly you create it, helping us understand your potential for generating clubhead speed.
Sit‑to‑Stand Test
This reveals your lower‑body strength, endurance and left‑right balance, showing how well you can maintain posture and power throughout a full round of golf.
Balance/weight shift testing
This highlights how stable you are in your golf posture and how efficiently you move your weight which has a big influence on your ability to consistently strike a golf ball.
One-to-one Discussion
We’ll chat through your results, your goals and share details around the various golf performance programmes we offer. There will be an exclusive discount for testing day attendees.
Just bring yourself and comfortable gym or golf clothing.
WHY ATHLETE FOCUSED?
You’re supported by professionals in both golf, and strength and conditioning. Together they test, prescribe and programme completely tailored to your needs ensuring everything is personalised and can be measured over time.
Recent results include:
- A golfer increased driver clubhead speed from 97mph to 106mph after 6 months of structured strength and power training.
- Another golfer went from playing twice per week with pain (and needing two days’ recovery) to playing four times per week pain‑free, with better quality of life off the course too.
