From Ground Force to Lag: The Speed Pyramid Explained

From Ground Force to Lag: The Speed Pyramid Explained

In the world of golf, speed is a game-changer. SuperSpeed Golf provides a structured approach to help players of all skill levels achieve their maximum clubhead speed and maintain it. Here’s how the SuperSpeed training system works:

The Speed Pyramid: Building Speed from the Ground Up 

At the core of SuperSpeed training is the Speed Pyramid, a model focusing on three key components:

1. Ground Force: Generating power from the lower body.

2. Rotational Sequencing: Maximizing torque through efficient upper body movement.

3. Lag and Release Mechanics: Refining wrist mechanics for optimal club speed.

Every drill and exercise integrates these elements, ensuring a holistic approach to speed development.

 

The Three Training Phases

SuperSpeed Golf employs three distinct training cycles to maximize speed gains:

1. Primary Training Phase:

Duration: 10 weeks.

Structure: Two 5-week levels, training 3 times per week.

Goal: Intensive speed-building with detailed protocols and drills available in the SuperSpeed Golf App.

2. Maintenance Phase:

Duration: Varies (depends on in-season or off-season training).

Structure: 1 training session per week.

Goal: Maintain and solidify speed gains. Think of it as tapering—like gym workouts for endurance.

3. Ramp-Up Phase:

Duration: Leading back into a primary training phase.

Structure: Returning to 3 training sessions per week.

Goal: Prepare the body for another cycle of intensive training.

 

 The Role of the SuperSpeed Golf App

The SuperSpeed Golf App is your training partner. It provides:

Step-by-step drills and protocols.

Customizable training plans.

Tracking tools to monitor progress.

Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned player, the app ensures you’re on track to reach your speed goals.

 

Why the SuperSpeed Approach Works 

SuperSpeed’s structured methodology ensures that golfers:

Build speed efficiently using science-backed techniques.

Avoid plateaus by cycling through phases.

Incorporate balance, coordination, and proper sequencing into their training.
