Golf is a rotation sport played by bodies that have lost the ability to rotate. Fix that, and two things happen at once: the ball goes farther and your back stops hurting. I've been doing exactly that for Oahu golfers for 25 years.
Book Your Free Movement ScreenYour swing power comes from rotation through the hips and mid-back. But most adult bodies — especially bodies that sit at desks — have lost real rotation. The swing still happens, so where does the movement come from? Your lower back. A part of your spine that was never designed to rotate under load.
That's the whole story of golfer's back pain, and it's also the story of your lost distance. The same restriction causes both. Lessons can't fix it because your swing coach is coaching a body that physically can't do what he's asking.
Restore rotation where it belongs and the lesson finally works, the ball finally goes, and your back finally gets to stop doing a job it was never built for.
He walked up to me at a gym asking how to use the machines. Underneath: two failed spinal injections and a surgery recommendation. We trained in a park with no equipment. One month later he was playing golf again. That was 17 years ago — he's trained with me ever since.
Two months of training and he was hitting drives over the fence at the driving range. He got sponsored by Callaway and went on to run his own golf course in Colorado.
I'm currently developing a junior golfer on the same rotation-first foundation. The method works at every age — it prevents damage in young athletes and undoes it in adults.
20–30 minutes. I test your rotation, hip mobility, and core function, and show you exactly where your swing is leaking power and loading your spine.
The Unlock Protocol restores rotation through your hips and mid-back, then loads strength into that new range so it holds up under a full-speed swing.
More turn, more distance, no bracing against pain on the back nine. And you don't stop playing while we work — you improve while you play.
