Hi Robert,
Thanks so much for the kind words and encouragement. We’ve actually been discussing this lately. What kind of things would you find most valuable?

The “ High 5 and Twist” is exactly the kind of exercises I need. I am 72 years old. Along with other nicks and bruises, I’ve had both shoulders replaced. There are many things I can’t do if I want my shoulders to last. I am doings “gyrotronics”. I get stengh and flexibility though movement. I bet there are many people on this web site that have similar situations. Since you understand what we are trying to accomplish in our golf game I think a DVD with movements that produce strength and flexibility at the same time would be great for everyone. Your video that demonstrates adductor and abbductor is also a great one.
You indicate 2-3 sets of 10 repetitions. How often? Is this something to be done daily as stretches are done, or 3 times per week, like every other day, as strengthening is done?
At what point should one increase the weight of the kettlebell? I bought an 8 kg kettlebell after doing 10 reps in the store with each side, 1 set only, without any straining. It will obviously help for awhile but should I be just working with this weight for a long time, or should there be an increase in weight along the way?
Like the previous gentleman, I am 72 years old, have recently resumed a stretching routine (flexibility is my poorest physical characteristic), practice or play 3-5 times per week in Tucson.
Since a kettlebell is not adjustable, might it be preferable to start with 2 sets of five repetitions, then slowly add repetitions to build up to 2 sets of 10-12 repetitions?
Otherwise, If one starts with a single set of repetitions and builds to 10-12 reps, how does one continue to gradually build to 2 sets of 10-12 reps each? Seems that going from one set of 10 to 2 sets of 10 would be a big jump.
Hi Jeremy,
I think a DVD that showed a golf specific set of flexibility and core strength routines that can be done three times a week would be great. Each routine would take around one to one and a half hours. It could incorporate bands and weights. Also some planks and other body weight resistance exercises.

JohnFielerI would also like to ask:
