Sports performance training, built for golf and racquet sports

In trained amateur golfers, yes: controlled trials of resistance and rotational-power training report measurable gains in club-head speed (Ehlert, 2020, Journal of Sports Sciences). At Catalyst we do not measure club-head speed; we measure and re-test grip strength, movement-pattern strength and Y Balance asymmetry every block, and train rotation at speed on Keiser pneumatics. The swing speed number is yours to bring from the range.

Two sessions a week in season, the heavier one at least 48 hours before a match. Each session pairs lower-body deceleration work with shoulder and cuff work. Off-season, a third session can go in. More than that in a working week in the forties costs recovery, not strength.

Yes. Tell us the league night and the tournament dates at the consultation. We cut volume in the 48 hours before a match and place the heavy session on the day furthest from it. A tournament week becomes a maintenance week.

Yes. Hafiz, our NeuroKinetic Therapy practitioner, runs the return-to-sport and sports massage lane and co-manages with your physio: the block is written around what has been cleared. If you are mid-rehab, start on the injury rehabilitation page and we move you across when cleared.

Socially competitive: the club golfer chasing a handicap, the league tennis or padel player, the person who plays twice a week and wants to keep playing at 60. We do not train professionals and we do not coach technique.

Yes, on a separate page with its own rules: one named coach, Keiser loading in 1 kg steps, no score under 18. See personal training for teenagers.

We match you based on your goals, training history, medical considerations, and personality fit. Every coach at Catalyst Performance is trained in the same 4-Pillar framework, but each brings a different strength. You work with the coach who is best positioned to guide your long-term development.
