Tiger Woods Workout

Anyone see Tiger Woods on the weekend? Can you tell he's been working out?

It's incredible what he and his trainer have done...Tiger looks significantly more muscular than a year ago. What's even more incredible is the dynamic flexibility Tiger has maintained during his body transformation.

It's relatively easy to build a physique like Tiger's, especially at 31 years old. But to maintain the fluid range of motion on his swing while gaining that strength and mass is impressive.

I'm not sure if Tiger has to be that muscular to succeed in golf, but more importantly, he hasn't allowed his size to impair his performance - and that's what happens to most guys that strength train for golf. They use machines, rather than a variety of movements. They end up losing the mobility that a great golf swing demands.

But going back to Tiger, it was also impressive to see how he dealt with the heat. He didn't fade. In fact, in the post-game news conference, he went on a pretty good tirade about how great he felt, and how all other golfers should be training hard so the heat would not bother them. Basically, Woodsy "called out" the other golfers on the tour.

And you know what, good for him. As he said, "he busts his butt" to stay in shape. You can't say that for almost all the other players on the tour. Even the ones that workout probably aren't busting their butts like Tiger (or like the men and women using Turbulence Training).

Anyways, congratulations to Mr. Woods. He deserves it. He earns it. And it looks like he will be dominating the scene for another 20 years, or as long as he feels like it. Imagine that, Woods in top shape for another TWENTY years.

Train hard,

PS - Oh yeah, I did my workout today...back to Phase 2 of Maximum Mass by Ferruggia. Great arm pump.
