Bryson To Winged Foot Kids: Focus On Recovery After Your Speed Training

Winged Foot welcomed back 2020 U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau and he gave a clinic to what could easily be misconstrued as an annual gathering of the Young Spalding Smails Society.

But he brought a sensible message of speed training and recovery talk to the kids, reports Golf.com’s Luke Kerr-Dineen.

“Take two days out of the week, and on those days for an hour swing with as much effort as you can,” DeChambeau said. By simply swinging with maximum effort, DeChambeau says, you’ll be building your golf muscles and breaking the neurological barriers that prevent you from maximizing your potential.

And after that, take your time to relax, he says. Allow your muscles to recover, work on increasing your flexibility and get your body ready for its next session.

“Recovery is key,” DeChambeau says. “Those 48 hours after speed training, are so important. Giving your muscles time to recover, and your nervous system to rest is so important, and not something I thought about when I started [speed training].”

And kids, whatever you do, don’t bet away the trust fund, ok?
