I was concerned that Jon might only work with elite athletes and not ordinary people, but this wasn’t the case! Jon tailors the workouts to my level and I come away from sessions feeling rejuvenated and not exhausted.

His knowledge and enthusiasm keep me motivated and I am reaping the benefits. Every week I notice an improvement in my strength and flexibility.

My advice is that you don’t have to live with a weak & tired old body, working with Jon is an investment in your future!

Before starting, I wasn’t sure how much a fitness programme could really help my golf swing. But working with Jon Hodgkinson Golf Fitness has made a big difference. I’ve now got better movement in key areas, which is helping me hit the ball more consistently.

What’s impressed me most is how personalised the programme has been. Exercises were chosen that not only addressed my physical limitations but also supported the specific changes my golf coach is working on with me. I’ve gained flexibility, improved my balance, and now have a clear plan to keep progressing.

I’d recommend Jon Hodgkinson Golf Fitness to anyone. They really understand how to tailor exercises to suit your age, fitness level, and golfing goals.

Even though I am only 2 weeks in, I am already swinging with a wider arc due to better posture and have gained distance off the tee.

40 mph winds into your face on the front nine.

Followed by a helping hand on the way back home.

Great course layout and a really enjoyable test all the way through.

Great session with Ben Mason Golf last week.

We took Ben through our assessment process — looking at mobility, stability, strength and power — and how those qualities link directly to his performance both on the course and through his everyday life.

We used the VALD Performance DynaMo to track ROM and strength data, helping identify opportunities to maintain Ben's performance and keep him injury-free as he aims to continue playing competitively and coaching at his full potential.

This is the framework behind every programme we build.

We don’t skip steps. We build from the ground up — starting with how you move, and progressing all the way to power.

Movement:

“First move well, then move often.” — Functional Movement Systems

Stability:

“Don’t put strength on top of dysfunction.” — Gray Cook

Strength:

“Strength is the road to speed and power.” — Mike Boyle

Power:

“Power is strength expressed quickly.” — Mike Boyle

This is how we help golfers improve flexibility, strength, and power — so they can play better, for longer.

"Before starting, I had reservations due to my age (74). I didn’t want a generic program for younger golfers, and I wasn’t sure I could gain enough distance to make it worthwhile.

I have been amazed at the results—I’ve gained 10 yards off the tee, am consistently hitting the ball in the center of the club, and I’m starting to sometimes hit my iron shots to the back of the green or over.

The individualized feedback throughout has been excellent, and Jon’s astounding knowledge of how different muscle groups affect the golf swing gives me confidence that every exercise is making a real difference.

This program has not only improved my golf game but also my overall health—helping me push back against the physical limitations I thought were inevitable. I may never swing like I did 25 years ago, but I’ve learned that you don’t have to just accept decline—you can fight it.+

Every session starts here.

A few minutes on the Concept2 BikeErg primes your body for a workout that improves how you move, feel, and perform—on the course and off it.

Concept2 BikeErgs are built to last. We wouldn't use anything else.

"I wanted to be fit enough to play every day and Jon has made that possible.

Not only that, but since I started working with him my pain levels have gone down and my swing is far more fluid."

We don’t rely on fixed machines because they train isolated muscles in fixed patterns.

Free weights and open space allow us to train the body as a whole — improving strength, stability, and control in ways that actually carry over to the course.
