As a player with some serious physical limitations due to spinal injury plus sciatic nerve damage this is so true you often think you aren't seeing results from a drill that your body cannot accomplish and the body being scared of reinjury is so relatable at times it literally just says NO.....you aren't doing that. Fantastic video really hit home
Wow. That is the most in-depth physical analysis I have seen. As someone who is getting older and transitioning my gym work into something longevity based and golf based so I can keep playing for a long time this is exactly what I'm interested in. Awesome stuff.
Unreal how good this video and the last few on body limitations are...when I used to teach, that was my FIRST question...it is so important to know...thanks Matt!
Glad to see Matt out here making new content that a lot of golf channels don’t show. They just show them playing for entertainment. Nothing wrong with that but something new and refreshing. Keep it up. 👍👍👍
One of the most insightful videos for golf that I have seen in a long time. It is a shame I have no idea whether there is a similar facility in the UK. As an overweight, mid 50s (but reasonably fit) man with a history of knee injuries (school rugby is brutal) and wrist injuries I would love to get this sort of assessment
Great idea for a video. Most of us probably have injuries (sometimes long term) that affect our golf swings even if we've never previously thought about it. Can't wait to see follow-ups.
Great insight. I'm recoving from a knee op and my physio is spending a lot of time focusing of my foot position. Apparently my knee injury has been causing my foot to be twisted similar to yours. She reckons this has been massively impacting my swing.
Matt this is next level. Appreciate you highlighting things mainstream golf doesn’t. Production value is A+ as well which I know you pride yourself on.
This is exactly the same revelation I'm coming to in my own game right now, as a powerlifter with a history of back problems I'm realizing my body just can't get into the impact positions I need. I'm moving to SoCal soon and I'll definitely be looking into UGP
Thanks for taking us behind the curtain again. Let's be honest, almost all of us have had breaks, stresses, injuries that we have no idea how well our body has bounced back from. As you mentioned, we may not be capable of certain movements. It would be beyond great to know how to improve, compensate, or realize not to try to force something. Thank you Matt.
Great content, would love such an assessment to get guidance on what to improve w my body to in turn make swing changes quicker/more efficiently. With leg injury and super flat feet I’m sure I have several limitations that if I understood would be beneficial to my golf. Thanks Matt for this super interesting video!
With a bad back (old age and injury’s) that has prevented me from playing a full round I finally went and got a lesson to see what could be done or if there was anything that could help. I have regular therapy and exercise, 1/2 hour with the club pro and a new set up I have been able to finish 18 and am striking the ball better. Wow, golf is fun again!
Super interesting content that every golfer, athlete, etc. should consider! More importantly, this should even shape the way on how golf instructors teach. It no longer is "you should swing this way" - there's so much more to it and what our body can/cannot do to accomplish the golf swing, as you clearly showed in this awesome video, Matt !
Great and mind bending video. Unless you’re a pro or young kid with dreams and wealthy parents, this regime is out of reach for most of us. It is amazing how far the science has developed, maybe Tiger’s records will be broken. Great job Matt and every bit of information about the golf swing feeds our addiction. Still chasing it in my 70’s
Matt great video Thank you, I'm a realist and a sponge for knowledge so perfect video , and like every other golfer ,, injuries, and how the human body compensates for these injuries,, and if your trying to improve and you want to be a scratch golfer yesterday lol it can definitely play with your mind, Great information , understanding why,, sometimes you'd rather not know but if you want to improve totally nessassary!!! Thank again Matt for the Honesty!!
This a really cool video to see having developed issues with low toe strikes since my pretty serious knee surgery the other year. It's annoying that it hurts my iron game which was always the best part of my game. This gives some cool insight into how these injuries change our games. Thanks for this Matt.
Suffering from plantar fasciitis and lower back problems I have no doubt a consultation here would be extremely beneficial. Unfortunately wrong side of the pond! But the areas you're looking at are fascinating. Revealing so much more to being able to play golf well.
One of the things that people can get out of this video is how important proper shoes are for your swing @ 5:55 . Shoes that don't fit your swing or your body, as a whole, can be affecting your scoring.
Thank you for giving me this insight because I had a stroke before I was born so I play golf one handed and this shows me how I can make sure I am not trying to overdo and injure myself but be able to play within myself even with the physical limitations that I have
Thanks for sharing this Matt! I’ve had many breaks and tears. I can imagine all the compensations I’m probably making. Great info and I really need to consider looking at something like this.
thx Matt this is so interesting and insightful, I always had a general idea about how these things affects our ability to swing efficiently even from one day to the next, it's great to get the how and why more specifically regarding reasons, limitations and corrections. just loving all the great info. your bringing us...my number one youtube channel and source of extremely beneficial info. without a doubt.
Bravo to Matt and the UGP team - what a great video. Could completely relate to the part about struggling to take drills into the swing. I need to find a place like this in MI (if one exists) or make some travel plans.
Great video Matt. Your showing the future of sports. Holistic or Total package look at a sport and how to get the maximum from your own personal ability. Great content look forward to watching how you progress.
Really interesting to look at the body first, but it makes total sense in retrospect. Seeing some of that in my non-scientific but targeted efforts to try to regain flexibility through a stronger core and protecting my shoulders by strengthening the different shoulder muscle groups. Could see the lower body stability area really needing work too for me personally (broken leg as well so made me pay attention). A place like that could really benefit someone who takes golf seriously. Could maybe explain the why’s for swing issues and maybe give some carrots for doing specific exercises in the expected outcome description. Very cool collective of resources there.
Awesome information Matt.... I would almost be afraid to find out how many physical limitations I have "Built" into my body after 35+ years of working oil field construction lol I can see the advantages for sure
Great stuff! I'm like a bunch of the others, having injuries from many moons ago that prevent me from getting into proper positions throughout the golf swing. I look forward to part 2...will also start looking to find a UGP like place in my area. Well done, sir.
Its great what you are doing and I am enjoying it as I am into this type of stuff but I don't have access to these type of professionals in my area but I am learning from you and can implement a lot of what you will be doing!!!
Can you do a video explaining who UGP is . I'm in SoCal and never heard of them but based on your videos and quick look at their website they seem like a big time operation that does some interesting stuff.
Interesting stuff. It may not affect you (yet), but for some golfers of a certain age, your hands/fingers start to hurt after playing-- I wonder how many golf PTs look at hand stuff. (I try the steel shafts/thicker grips with shock abosorbing stuff; not yet venturing into graphite).
Great video, I didn’t even know this type of thing existed! I’m currently recovering from ACL reconstruction, so doing this once I’m done with PT and fully cleared sounds very beneficial.
What are some either at home or at gym movements and exercises that someone can do at home to help with the kind of the issues talked about in this video. This is awesome but doesn’t seem feasible to every player.
So what does a 55% score mean? Like you can swing 10MPH faster with that stuff fixed? or you will just be less injured? or what does it mean in real world when you are 80% or 90%+. Great video Matty. Never seen anything like this. Keep up the great work!
good questions, i think it has to do with your potential strength and performance increases across different areas of the body - how exactly that would translate to golf we'll have to follow up and see next time
Wow, this explains a lot of the issues I’m having. Having had two prior back surgeries, there are positions I just can’t get into. Are you aware of a place like this in Florida? Great video!!
I would recommend going to see Tyler McGhie in Orlando, he works with The Vault Performance that can help you assess these types of issues. Not to say it's the same offering but I think something you'd find beneficial.
boy am I messed up, Big and little toe knuckle big calcium deposits/arthritis from years of soccer. Right hip replacements and 5 left knee reconstructions.
thats awesome.. i tore my acl in my right knee 2 years ago and didnt get it repaired. im still swinging at close to 130mph but have trouble getting on to my left leg through impact. this might be a good method of finding a solution that wrks with a less stable right leg
This was similar to me except I had chronic dislocation in my left knee which kept me from getting to my left at all. I eventually did get it surgically fixed due to pain/work and I can get on my left side now, but I def see a difference it's caused with my strikes. Seems to make my left leg straighten and cause low toe hits. Hope you can get yours sorted man
I put a circular saw 3/4 way through my right arm,and now can only play one handed. But last years British disabled open,i played with a lad who lost both his legs in Afghan,walked round and carried for all 18 holes. I left thinking i was a fraud for only playing one handed against him. If you think you,ve got an injury,just go watch some disabled sports sometime,you,ll soon discover your being a wuss,and theres actually very little wrong with you in reality.
One of, if not my favourite golf fitness video on RUclips. So good, glad you're making your own way on this new channel Matt

Matt some of your best work can’t wait for the rest. I am 63 years old so the physical training is of particular interest to me
Tier 1. A+ golf content. Keep it up Matt, you are a huge inspiration to me.
Very cool.Really good insight into physical limitations that we would never even be aware of that are limiting our potential in golf.
Unreal how good this video and the last few on body limitations are...when I used to teach, that was my FIRST question...it is so important to know...thanks Matt!

This is fantastic. As someone who is knocking on the door of 50 and battling golf and old hockey injuries, this is great content.
You're providing a valuable perspective to the golf community, Matt. It will find its way to you and your channel.
Pretty intense detail. Love the limitation detection.
Great insight. I'm recoving from a knee op and my physio is spending a lot of time focusing of my foot position. Apparently my knee injury has been causing my foot to be twisted similar to yours. She reckons this has been massively impacting my swing.
Man. I absolutely love this content, Matty! Really good stuff and the holistic, body-first approach is $$$.

With leg injury and super flat feet I’m sure I have several limitations that if I understood would be beneficial to my golf. Thanks Matt for this super interesting video!
Great video Matt. This video was very interesting and the facility is very impressive!

Hmm. Interesting stuff Matt. Looking forward to part 2.
Fantastic video I wish we had something like this in Australia
Nice work🤘Great seeing a fresh insight to the mechanics of golf.

This is amazing. I wish we had a facility like that here. Thanks again for sharing your experiences and journey with us Matt.

Love this video, goes to show that we swing how our body will let us. Bet it gave you so many lightbulb moments.
Fascinating. Seems like it would be great to go through, but expensive.
This is exactly what I needed dealing with a structural problem. Thanks Matty boy

All your content has been amazing Matt! Thanks for sharing all this great information for us all!
Matt, how do you find these nuggets of RUclips gold!! So, when you get sorted out, you gonna be even longer???
I’d settle for hitting it straighter 🤣 but maybe!
These videos are excellent. Never seen anything like it on the tube!
Matt. Your content is fantastic. Love watching your channel. Please keep doing these kinds of videos.
Phenomenal stuff dude!
Thanks for sharing this Matt! I’ve had many breaks and tears. I can imagine all the compensations I’m probably making. Great info and I really need to consider looking at something like this.

Great video and important aspect of getting better at golf or any other sport.
Damnn the editting is on point!
Great video Matt, really in-depth and interesting.
Next level
Its great what you are doing and I am enjoying it as I am into this type of stuff but I don't have access to these type of professionals in my area but I am learning from you and can implement a lot of what you will be doing!!!
Amazing stuff! Really looking forward to this series.
Fascinating info
It’s amazing to find all this out, but the huge realisation that I’m as bad or worse with all my injuries 😅
This is a great video, thx
Love this!! Keep up the awesome work. Looking forward to the things to come
Brilliant!
Excellent
What is crazy is the 55% capacity Matt is using, and the speed and etc he creates already.
Great stuff!
14:45, the real work can get done when you know what you should be working on.
Great content!
Keep sharing this critical info.
This was a great video and look forward to part 2!
Such a great stuff
So good!

That was really interesting, thanks Matt.
Wear birkenstock sandal can allign your heel, not confort for first time,
Good stuff. Very eye opening.
Is there anything like this in the UK? Great video Matt, really opened my eyes to how deep we need to look at our swings after injuries.
not that I know of
Great video, I didn’t even know this type of thing existed! I’m currently recovering from ACL reconstruction, so doing this once I’m done with PT and fully cleared sounds very beneficial.
Would Matt’s hands behind his back impact this heel reading ? Just curious
What are some either at home or at gym movements and exercises that someone can do at home to help with the kind of the issues talked about in this video. This is awesome but doesn’t seem feasible to every player.
This video has the practical drills based on this session: ruclips.net/video/v9rH-GXMM_I/видео.html
@@GolfLiberty thank you! Have really enjoyed your channel and the way you approach golf.
So what does a 55% score mean? Like you can swing 10MPH faster with that stuff fixed? or you will just be less injured? or what does it mean in real world when you are 80% or 90%+. Great video Matty. Never seen anything like this. Keep up the great work!
good questions, i think it has to do with your potential strength and performance increases across different areas of the body - how exactly that would translate to golf we'll have to follow up and see next time
Did he provide any at home work for that ankle/foot work? I have pretty much the exact same problem.
Wow, this explains a lot of the issues I’m having. Having had two prior back surgeries, there are positions I just can’t get into. Are you aware of a place like this in Florida?

@@GolfLiberty awesome man, thank you much
This is incredibly interesting! Is there anything like this in Toronto?
Never seen a facility and team like this anywhere else
boy am I messed up, Big and little toe knuckle big calcium deposits/arthritis from years of soccer. Right hip replacements and 5 left knee reconstructions.
Matt, when you talk about your swing, are you referring to left or is this still part of the right handed fitting?
left-handed, was just the clubfitting video that was done right handed
thats awesome.. i tore my acl in my right knee 2 years ago and didnt get it repaired. im still swinging at close to 130mph but have trouble getting on to my left leg through impact. this might be a good method of finding a solution that wrks with a less stable right leg

Seems to make my left leg straighten and cause low toe hits. Hope you can get yours sorted man
this would drive me nuts to think about all these things they point out hahaha
was your leg break golf related?
Broke it playing hockey
Ball park figure. How much this all cost ?
This experience is closest to what I did during my trip: urbangolfperformance.com/shop/ugp-2-day-experience
I put a circular saw 3/4 way through my right arm,and now can only play one handed. But last years British disabled open,i played with a lad who lost both his legs in Afghan,walked round and carried for all 18 holes.
