Day 1: The Breakdown
This blog is about Steve Nguyen, who is a good friend of mine, but also one of my clients. After losing almost 30 pounds of fat with hard work and persistence, Steve is still striving to achieve his desired weight. At 5 foot 5 he currently weighs 190 pounds. His ideal weight is 150. In addition to losing 40+ pounds Steve also wants to improve his golf swing and golf game. In this blog we will be documenting the transformation of Steve’s body and the effect it has on his golf swing through an improved fitness level. We will be updating weekly. Follow him on his journey to his ultimate goal, and for those of you that are around him push him and don’t let him slack off!

We found out that one of the biggest issues in making his swing the way he wants it, is his inability to make a complete shoulder turn. Not having a complete shoulder turn limits clubhead speed by making the swing prodominantly with the arms. Here is a video of Steve’s current range of motion for making a shoulder turn:
