Here are a few tips that will help warm you up for your best golf game:

Warm up: If you are like me the first couple holes can make or break my round. For a good start here are my keys to warming up.

  • Get to the golf course with time to spare, at least 20 minutes.
  • Take a brisk walk.
  • Exercise the big muscles, as shown in the above video.
  • 10-20 practice swings gradually increasing the length of the swing each time. swing both right handed and left handed.
  • Take a little extra club and swing 80% on the first few shots.

Another Golf Champion

Congratulations to Ken and Ben Gootee for winning the Metairie Country Club member golf tournament.  We are so proud that another BRIO client has been named golf champion!

Ken is a great testament to being committed to physical health. He works hard every week to stay strong and flexible so he can continue to play golf  at a high level. His hard work has paid off not only for surviving 2 days of golf in extremely high temperatures, but by blowing the field away with a stellar performance.

Ken has been a regular with us for 4+ years! He is very committed to taking care of himself and the results show.
