Andrew is a personal trainer and fitness professional and golf fitness instructor with http://premierfitnesssystems.com/ (Premier Fitness Systems).\r\n\nAndrew is a huge proponent of golf fitness and performance and believes that the general public can benefit from the techniques and concepts of golf fitness training through mobility, flexibility, and dynamic movement, while still combining traditional strength and athletic movements. Andrew\u2019s view on health and fitness is not necessarily about looking ripped or toned year round with high-intensity workouts, but about a lifestyle change through active habits, maintainable nutritional choices, and a healthy mindset of self-worth.\r\n\nAndrew loves working with all types of people and enjoys creating valuable interpersonal relationships that can help clients exceed their goals. He enjoys learning about his clients to ensure a fun, motivational and fulfilling workout.\r\n\nAndrew Hannon\u2019s Background\r\n\n\r\n\n* Andrew started as an athlete in a small town in Kansas where he participated in three sports in high school.\r\n\n* His sports career continued at Baker University where he played baseball and basketball.\r\n\n* During that time Andrew began to find his true passion for fitness and performance.\r\n\n* While majoring in Exercise Science his knowledge on fitness and health continued to grow.\r\n\n* Andrew is a TPI certified trainer and works with golfers of all levels from amateur, recreational, professional, as well as other individuals simply looking to move better and get stronger.\r\n\n\r\n\nHighlights from this Episode\r\n\n\r\n\n* Andrew shares his background growing up as a baseball and basketball player ans how he ended up getting into the fitness business, eventually making his way to Arizona to specialize working with golfers.\r\n\n* We talk about some of the bigger pieces a golfer needs to pay attention to when thinking about golf fitness and mobility. Andrew looks at three main things whenever he starts consulting with a new client: how well they hinge, their pelvis, and what they do with their feet.\r\n\n* How to get clients to \u2018buy in\u2019 to working on certain movements that are really important to work on, but may not be quite as exciting as jumping right into lifting heavy weights.\r\n\n* Why people have such a resistance to warming up properly when they get to the range or course. Andrew sees so many golfers who have injured themselves, and it can largely be prevented with a decent warm up. We talk about a few simple exercises that anyone can do before they start swinging a club.\r\n\n* To see some of Andrew’s warm-up videos, go to his https://www.instagram.com/ando_pfs/ (Instagram feed).\r\n\n* We talk about Andrew\u2019s three main pillars of health and fitness, and how everyone can apply them to live a better life.
