What is the Power
Max Fitness
Swing Machine?
The Power Max
Fitness Swing Machine
is a golf-specific workout system designed with the help of orthopedic
surgeons, sport medicine physicians, golf teaching professionals and
tour
players. The Swing Machine encourages a proper shoulder turn on the
correct
swing plane and strengthens every muscle used in an athletic, well
coordinated
swing.
How does the
Power Max Fitness
Swing Machine work?
The Power Max
Fitness Swing Machine
provides a mechanically guided path and an adjustable resistance to
help
you tone, strengthen and rehabilitate the muscles and joints used in an
athletic swing.

Position

How will this
increase my distance?
The Swing Machine
X-factor Professional™
provides a guided path on the correct swing plane and an adjustable
resistance
force to correctly challenge your body so you develop greater swing
strength,
increased flexibility, on plane muscle memory and power generating
swing
mechanics. These factors allow you to make a more efficient and
controlled
swing while at the same time creating much faster clubhead speeds. So,
the Swing Machine X-factor not only builds swing strength, flexibility
and stamina. It also encourages and reinforces the key distance
generating
swing details such as good shoulder rotation, a wide backswing with
good
arm extension, a proper, well timed weight shift and a delayed release
that takes advantage of the body's natural levers.
All of these
details, which are practiced
and developed through the unique design of the X-factor Professional,
consistently
and reliably develop increased distance and accuracy.
How will this
improve my swing?
By training on the
Swing Machine
X-factor Professional™ you will actually improve your golf swing while
you develop a stronger, more flexible swing motion. With input from top
ranked teaching professionals the design and function of this equipment
guides your body through a picture perfect golf swing in slow motion
and
against an easily adjustable resistance force. While performing this
slow
motion swing it is easy to focus on the timing and details of a quality
golf swing. As you maintain good arm extension on the backswing motion,
the Swing Machine guides your shoulder turn on the correct swing plane
into a well balance and fully loaded backswing position. Then, as you
make
your weight shift on the platform and initiate your down swing you are
approaching the ball striking zone on an inside path and using the
correct
hand and arm position which will trigger a delayed or low release and
generate
power and speed with maximum efficiency. By performing this rotational
motion over and over your body will develop the muscle memory needed to
make this correct swing a habit.

Guaranteed
Results
The Swing Machine
X-factor Professional™
is the ultimate one-stop golf improvement station that will help you
gain
20-40 yards from the tee, and improve your golf swing. Contrary to
popular
belief, golf is a contact sport. You make contact with your club and
your
club makes contact with the ball. And since it is a contact sport you
will
perform better if your “swing engine” is well tuned, and all that is
required
to tune and super charge your swing engine is to spend a few minutes a
day on the Swing Machine X-factor Professional.
This is not voodoo and
there are
no smoke and mirrors. This is a medically proven fact. By working with
this equipment, you will tone, strengthen and rehabilitate the muscles
and joints used in an athletic swing motion and you will increase your
flexibility, stamina and swing mechanics.
We feel so confident that
the Swing
Machine X-factor Professional from Power Max Fitness will help you go
long
and stay in the short grass that we are willing to make a money back
guarantee.
If you don't feel that you are getting the results you want, just send
it back within 30 days of delivery for a full refund of your purchase
price.
This is the most
effective golf training
and strengthening station in the world and it will help you Swing
Stronger
and Hit Longer.

Why Golfers
Workout
In recent years the
face of professional
golf has changed. The tour professionals who are winning are the
players
who work to squeeze every bit of performance they can from their body's
“swing engines.” The winners work out to enhance their performance
because
distance is the key to winning. These athletes are training to be able
to swing with more power and to develop the stamina to out- last their
competition.
Well, in
recreational golf the stakes
may not be as high but competitive ferocity is driving golfers of all
ages
and skill levels to gyms and fitness clubs. When they get there, what
will
they find? Well, unless their gym has the Swing Machine X-factor
Professional
they will probably see heavy medicine balls, cable and pulley machines
and free weights which are not specifically designed for exercising for
the golf swing. On typical gym style cable equipment the range of
motion
is linear or straight in and out. There is no aspect of the golf swing
that operates on the linear principal. Clubhead speed, power and swing
plane are all generated as a result of rotational motion. And with free
weights and medicine balls the muscles being strengthened are usually
the
lifting or takeaway muscles. These techniques do nothing to strengthen
the muscles that power the down-swing. Another deficiency in these free
weights is that there is no way to insure that you are working on the
correct
swing plane.
The Swing Machine
X-factor Professional,
on the other hand, guides the full swing motion and maintains good arm
extension and a proper swing path while you train so you not only
stretch
and strengthen the muscles used in a perfect golf swing but also train
muscle memory for a mechanically correct swing motion on the proper
swing
plane.
|
Stamina to keep
Swinging and Swinging
A typical round of golf
can last
from 4-5 hours and between warm-up, practice swings and actual playing
swings a golfer may swing over 200 times during an outing. That's a lot
of swings!
To be able to make that
many swings
and have the focus, control and strength needed for a confident finish
takes stamina and staying power. The Swing Machine X-Factor
Professional™
builds this critical stamina as you work out against the adjustable
resistance.
This equipment is not designed to build bulk muscle tissue for heavy
work,
but instead, to build more tone and strength in the swing-specific
muscles
through repetitions so a controlled swing motion can be repeated over
and
over and over as you practice and play. Golfers who lack stamina
typically
start to fall off on the back 9 holes due to simple muscle
fatigue.
Working with the X-factor
Professional
will build the stamina you need to Start Strong and Finish Strong.
More Distance with Every
Club
Technology can only carry
your game
and your ball so far. After that, it's up to you.
Buying a new driver to
get a few
extra yards from the tee may seem like a sound investment but what
about
your other clubs?
Your “swing engine”
determines where
the ball goes and how far it goes. If you want more distance, more
control
and more accuracy, you need to strengthen the muscles that power your
swing.
A new club won't do it. A new ball won't do it. The Swing Machine
X-factor
Professional™ will do it! By working with this equipment you will
develop
more swing-specific flexibility, more swing strength and more swing
control
and you will develop all of these distance factors while grooving
better
swing mechanics.
| How will this
fix my slice?
The leading cause
of a slice swing
or “Power Fade” is an over the top move or an above plane down swing
that
causes the clubhead to approach the ball on an outside to in path which
imparts clockwise spin to the golf ball (for a right hand golfer).
The fastest and
most consistent way
to beat a “slice” ball flight is to approach the golf ball on an inside
to out path and on the correct swing plane. This inside path will
result
in a square club face at impact and the backspin imparted will help the
ball maintain a lifting, boring trajectory.
The Swing Machine
X-factor Professional™
guides an inside path on the correct swing plane as you train and will
not allow the excessive over the top move on the down swing, so with
routine
sessions on the Swing Machine your body can develop muscle memory for
the
correct inside path to impact and you can say “Goodbye” to that chronic
slice.
Why is it
important that the Swing
Machine works in both directions?
Since the patent
pending design of
the Swing Machine allows it to work in either direction full time, it
is
possible to alternate right and left handed swings to strengthen both
sides
of the body uniformly. Top medical professionals recommend that golfers
swing both right and left handed an equal number of times to avoid long
term injury and maintain muscle symmetry throughout the body. Since the
Swing Machine can operate in either direction with no adjustment, it is
easy to get the prescribed balanced workout with no hassle.

|
Can I also use the
Swing Machine
to warm-up before a round?
Doctors recommend:
Proper Swing
Techniques
Stretching
Strengthening
Swing specific warm-up to
minimize
after play soreness and risk of injury.
With the Power Max Fitness
Swing
Machine, all of these recommendations can be followed.
Is the Swing Machine
adjustable?
The Swing Machine is
easily adjustable
for height and resistance force so athletes of all sizes and strength
levels
can benefit.
Will the Swing Machine
increase
my distance, control and accuracy?
Daily repetitions on the
Swing Machine
develop proper swing mechanics by grooving your muscles into the
correct
swing plane. It also conditions and strengthens these swing specific
muscles
so you can achieve more distance from the tee, more power from the deep
rough and more control all the way to the hole.
How often should I use
the Swing
Machine and how many repetitions should I do?
We suggest exercising on
the Swing
Machine 3-5 times per week and for 10-20 minutes each session. As with
any new exercise regiment, start gradually and work up as you become
comfortable
and accustomed to the various exercises you can perform on the Swing
Machine.
For every set of five to ten repetitions in one direction, switch grip
position and execute the same number in the opposite direction to
derive
the full benefit from this equipment.

Davis Love,

How long does
it take to see
results?
Depending on your
overall physical
condition and the quality of your sessions on the Swing Machine, you
may
expect to see and feel results in just a few weeks. Most people report
recognizable results in 10 to 20 days.
After a round of
golf, my lower
back is really sore. Will the Swing Machine help?
Alternating swing
directions on the
Swing Machine strengthens the support network of muscles in the lower
back,
abdominals, obliques and pelvic girdle. Toning and strengthening these
muscles on both sides of the body will greatly reduce the risk of after
play soreness.
Is there much to
assemble?
The Swing Machine
is shipped fully
assembled but the various support bases require that 4-6 screws be
installed.
With the floor base, this usually takes about five minutes.
I lift weights
and workout at
the gym. Why do I need the Swing Machine?
General workouts
are good for general
conditioning, but when you are involved in a particular sport, there
are
very specific demands on those certain muscles associated with the
complex
interactions of your swinging movement. The key to the Power Max
Fitness
Swing Machine is in its ability to tone, strengthen and maintain
flexibility
of all the muscles and joints involved in your perfect swinging
stroke.
