New Online Golf Program Set to Take the Web By Storm

A new Website which uses the latest technological, medical and scientific techniques to help improve a golfer’s swing has been developed by Australian chiropractor, Ronald Burke.

(PRWEB) June 22, 2005 -- A new Website which uses the latest technological, medical and scientific techniques to help improve a golfer’s swing has been developed by Australian chiropractor, Ronald Burke.

Burke created the Website, www.getfittogolf.com, in consultation with golf professionals, fitness coaches, a team of chiropractors and Website designers.

The software developed for the site categorizes golf swing faults into seven major areas. Muscle imbalances, biomechanical faults and posture is diagnosed by the site to determine a golfer’s swing fault.
A customized exercise program which will improve your golf swing, general health and susceptibility to injury is produced by the software program to help improve individual problems.

More than 500 pages of data is provided on the site, which is divided into two main components. The first component includes general educational information for golfers about medical problems which can lead to a major swing fault. The second component of the Web site is for members only. It involves a 30-minute general health survey which will design a program specifically unique to individual physical problems.

The custom software program analyses individual data to produce a major swing fault and an exercise program geared to correct any weakness. The program can be printed out for the customer’s benefit.
This component includes three fitness levels: novice, intermediate and advanced. Each level targets individual problems whilst recognizing that body changes are ongoing. Every three months a member client will be advised by email to reassess themselves.

Burke said that if a golfer has a spinal problem or incorrect posture they will have a poor swing. “That’s why I started this program. To help people understand why they’re golf swing is imperfect,” Burke said. “If a person has poor posture or a muscle imbalance or some other biomechanical problem they won’t be able to hit a golf ball square to a target and they will hook, slice, push or pull the ball. It doesn’t matter how much a golfer spends on lessons or equipment if they have a fault in their spine they won’t be able to swing the club properly.”

Burke said the Website was designed to help golfers play better golf and to improve their health and fitness and prevent injury. “The idea is for individuals to combine the diagnosis they receive from the site with lessons from professional golfers, exercise and other medical help, if that is needed.”

Burke said that the site doesn’t teach golfers how to hit a ball, it aims to show them where they are going wrong physically. “There are a range of different problems which can affect a golf swing including displaced hips, muscle weakness, shoulder pain, spinal problems, arched feet, one leg shorter than the other, hunchback and back pain,” he said. “All these problems restrict movement and will affect your golf swing. If your balance is out then your centre of gravity will be affected and so will your golf swing.”

The product will be available worldwide, with a special introduction price of $47 to the first 500 members. It will be a great success among the golf community.
