TITLEIST PERFORMANCE INSTITUTE BRINGS INNOVATIVE NAVY SEAL TRAINING
TO TODAY'S FITNESS-MINDED GOLFERS
Golf Performance Experts Partner with Fitness Anywhere, Developers of
Revolutionary Suspension Training Method on Innovative Golf Workout DVD
SAN FRANCISCO, May 29, 2007 - Fitness Anywhere Inc., pioneers of Suspension
TrainingT a revolutionary method of functional fitness born within Navy SEAL teams, have
joined forces with the leading authority on golf fitness, the Titleist Performance Institute
(TPI), to produce an innovative training DVD for golfers of any age or skill level. The first
sport-specific DVD incorporating Suspension Training, Golf Workout provides golfers with a
comprehensive fitness program including warm-up routines and real-time full-body workouts
to increase strength, balance, flexibility and core stability, ultimately resulting in better
control, increased power and prevention of common golf-related injuries.
"Working together with Fitness Anywhere and its TRX Suspension Training system, we've
created an exciting new program that brings another level of functional fitness to the game
of golf," said Dr. Greg Rose, cofounder of the Titleist Performance Institute. "This practical
and innovative training system allows us to mimic golf-swing mechanics while working
against safe and effective levels of resistance that can be adjusted to each user based on
their varying fitness levels and capabilities. The system allows golfers to effectively target
critical core stabilizer muscles essential to postural control and overall strength, which
ultimately translate to better swing control, distance on the golf course and prevention of the
most common golf related injuries."
Suspension Training originally evolved in the military when Randy Hetrick, president of
Fitness Anywhere, Inc.,was a Navy SEAL squadron commander and needed a way for his
team to maintain peak physical condition while on deployment in the most remote and
resource-deprived parts of the world. To meet this need, Hetrick created a portable device
they could use to train the entire body using only their own body weight. Inspired by the
growing success of his invention within the military ranks, Hetrick devoted himself full time to
its development into a commercially viable performance training tool. The TRX® Suspension
Trainer is now used by a rapidly growing number of top athletic trainers, professional
athletes, personal trainers, health clubs and active-minded individuals.
The TRX Suspension Trainer is a professional-grade functional training tool that is made
from soft industrial-strength, non-elastic nylon webbing. Users exploit gravity and use from 5
- 100% of their own bodyweight for resistance - no extra weights required. By simply
adjusting body position, users can vary the resistance level in each exercise and
progressively increase the level of difficulty as their strength-to-weight ratio improves. The
design of the TRX also allows users to perform unique exercises that combine, strength
flexibility and core stability simultaneously.
"We are excited by our affiliation with Fitness Anywhere," says David Ostrow, CEO of Body
Balance for Performance, a national chain of health and fitness centers providing
customized golf-specific personal training. "The TRX is a wonderful training tool for our
golfers. It allows us to provide golfers with a device that they can use at home or on the road
to perform functional training and body weight exercises to build strength, control and
mobility for the golf swing"
The TRX weighs less than two pounds and folds into the size of a golf shoe and because it
can be set-up on any secure overhead structure such as pull-up bars, fence, beam, walls or
doors, users can work out literally anywhere.
"After giving birth to my son, workouts using the TRX helped me get back to the LPGA Tour
in just eight weeks. Not only are the workouts intense, which helped me to regain club head
speed, the functionality allows me to get great workouts anywhere," says Laura Diaz, LPGA
professional.
