FOR ACADEMY STUDENTS

HOUR 1 is dedicated to Prehabilitation which includes flexibility, mobility and activation exercises that help prevent injuries in the long run. The golfer is assessed and the program is written and monitored by our full-time in-house Physiotherapists.

HOUR 2 is dedicated to Strength and Conditioning. The goal here is high performance through improved physical capabilities of strength, power, speed and endurance. The golfer is assessed and the program is written and monitored by our full-time in-house Strength and Conditioning experts.

A DAILY TRAINING DIARY, maintained by every student gives an indication of the body’s recovery from the previous day’s workload and basis that the next session load is modified.

Our team also monitors the student’s PERSONALISED NUTRITION PLAN that includes the right kind of eating along with relevant supplements that are prescribed by the academy’s nutrition partner Qua.

What sets this team apart is how they ALIGN WITH OUR GOLF COACHES regarding every student’s physical abilities and limitations that could affect their golf technique and vice versa.

We firmly believe that a golfer’s fitness levels have a direct correlation to the quality of his game.

FOR NON ACADEMY STUDENTS

For athletes who play other sports

We have professionals from cricket, tennis, and other sports who stay in the academy residences and work on their fitness either during their recovery stage or during the off-season period.

The program is custom designed by our in-house sports science team based on the screening and assessments done. This includes a prehabilitation schedule for injury prevention and a strength and conditioning routine. This keeps the athlete busy for two to three hours a day. The rest time is used for recovery or learning to play golf.

The athletes do not have to compromise on their food when at the academy. Our nutritionist who designs the everyday menu for sports persons specifically ensures that every meal is balanced.

LEARNING STAGES

There are 3 stages of learning that every student of the TAD Programme goes through.

1. Athleticism

The student/athlete has to think about how to perform the skill - this stage can last a few sets (which is rare) up to a few number of weeks.

2. Control

The student/ athlete has some control over the skill, but is not reflex based yet. This stage may last a number of weeks too.

3. Reflexive

The skill is now reflex based and embedded within the student/ athlete’s neural circuitery.It may be weeks or even months before this stage is reached by a novice.

DATA ANALYSIS

Progress guided through data.

The TSG Sports Science program for Total Athletic Development is data intensive. That’s the only way we know to measure progress.

We expect anyone who is on the program to take responsibility for the metrics they need to input in the software.

The team extrapolates and analyses the data along with other assessment based parameters to monitor, design and map progress.
