Equipment

Our golf fitness programs don’t require a lot of equipment to see results. Here is the list of equipment we suggest you have.

But as I mentioned, our programs are designed for the bare minimum of resources. Usually a set of dummbells and an adjustable bench are just fine. A lot of our programs are bodyweight only.

The only thing I recommend you get no matter what… the mobility kit!

Need…	Recommended Equipment…	Why Use This?
Mobility Kit		Proper physical fitness requires more than maximum strength and everlasting endurance, it requires mobility. At Onnit Academy, we call this skill “Durability,” the ability to sustain work while withstanding wear or damage, a facet that is impacted largely by soft tissue health and joint health in general. With that in mind, we developed a group of tools that will help you quickly enhance overall mobility: Mobility Bands and Mobility Balls. Self-myofascial release is an effective way of improving mobility by applying pressure to specific muscles and trigger points throughout the body. The Onnit Massage and Mobility Kit is an all-in-one kit designed to help speed up recovery between training sessions and assist in overall mobility. Using these tools can help manually break up knots in muscles that form as the result of injuries (micro-trauma to the muscle). These “trigger points” can form from physical training or from prolonged length of time in a sitting position. What looks like an ordinary foam roller is anything but. Pop open the cap and you’ll discover a gym’s worth of mobility tools packed inside this self-contained unit. Use the included shoulder strap to carry the kit with you, and you’ll never be without myofascial relief again.
Multi-Mat		Train anywhere with the multi-purpose Onnit Multi-Mat. With special attention paid to creating the ideal thickness, texture and slip resistant grip for multiple modalities, the Multi-Mat is perfect for broad spectrum fitness needs. The polyurethane coated base topped with recycled rubber reduces aerobic impact on your joints, while providing epic durability.
Jump Rope		Jump ropes have been indispensable fitness tools for decades. A mainstay for athletes, fighters, and weekend warriors, skipping rope is one of the most effective cardiovascular training techniques. Ten minutes of skipping rope can produce roughly the same results as running an eight-minute mile. The Onnit High-Performance Speed Rope is designed to stand up to the most punishing athletic use. It features lightweight aluminum alloy handles, heavy-duty 3mm cord, and can be adjusted to fit your ideal length.
Slam Ball		EXPLOSIVE POWER The medicine ball is one of the oldest and most versatile excercise implements available. Designed for slams, throws, squats, twists, situps and everything in between, the medicine ball is an invaluable tool to help build core-strength and explosive power through high-intensity training. Medicine balls are mainly used for throwing and catching drills, which build explosivity and the ability to absorb and redirect force—all of which are crucial to athletes. Lifting barbells and dumbbells builds strength, which lays the foundation for power, but according to the American College of Sports Medicine, it doesn’t develop explosivity as well as med ball training does. These Onnit medicine balls are made of a super-strong ballistic grade material, which is designed to hold up to the most punishing abuse. The high-tack surface of the ball ensures maximum grip, and the high quality construction helps the ball maintain its spherical shape. The Onnit Ballistic Medicine Balls are 14” in diameter and available in 10, 15, and 20lb weights.
Kettlebell		Kettlebell training combines explosive strength with muscular endurance to provide an efficient and athletically optimized full body workout. And while these kettlebells look amazing, they are built to perform. Designed from the ground up with a focus on functionality first, this helmet has been engineered to meet functional standards that would impress Mr. Stark himself. I painted mine to look just like a real Iron Man helmet.
Adjustable Bench		An outstanding addition to any workout space – for positioning support when you’re exercising and for maximum workout versatility. The sturdier the better… you will be happier in the long run by going a little higher end on this purchase. I love my Bowflex 5.1 bench, it’s very stable and will last a long long time.
Dumbbells		A good sturdy set of dumbbells. We prefer the adjustable kind like these Bowflex weights.
Stability Ball		My secret weapon to building a stable and strong core.
Timer		Compact in size and easy to program, the Gymboss works as an all-in-one interval timer, countdown clock, and stopwatch. Use it for a wide variety of workouts, from cardio and endurance exercises to weight training, CrossFit and Tabata programs. The Gymboss keeps you on point with dependable accuracy, a clear digital display, and numerous customizable functions—including repeating interval timer settings (from 2 seconds all the way up to 99 minutes) and a vibrating alarm mode ideal for noisy gym environments. A convenient belt clip makes the Gymboss fully portable, and a shock-resistant / water-resistant exterior keeps it running in virtually any conditions.
Putting Mat		We use a Birdie Ball putting green in our studio. We have no preference on what kind or brand you choose, as long as you have one readily available in your house/office. You’ll need one for the OTA : Off-Season Training Academy if you live in a cold weather environment.
