Goals My goal for this project is to increase the distance that I can hit a golf ball. I will try many different things to try to achieve my goal of hitting it farther. Outline of Project This week and the next couple weeks I am going to see if working out and eating lots of protein, vegetables and fruits could make me bigger and make me hit it farther. Bryson Dechambeau, a pro golfer on the PGA Tour, decided he wanted to hit the golf ball farther last year so he decided to change his diet and increase his workout intensity to see if it would cause him to hit it farther and he went from an average player when it comes to how far he hits it to becoming the distance leader on the PGA tour. Driving Distance Today I went to the driving range to get a base line of how far I am hitting it. My average today was 270 yards with a driver. I am using a device called track man that tracks how far you hit the ball. A yard in golf is a lot more than people think, what I mean by that is that going from 270 to 275 would be a great accomplishment. Diet I used to workout once or twice a week and just eat when I was hungry and 90% of the time tho food I was eating was very unhealthy and was good for putting on fat, not muscle. This week I plan to workout 5 days and eat mostly protein like chicken, protein shakes, protein bars and peanut butter and vegetables like broccoli, carrots and potatoes and fruits like apples, bananas and strawberries. Workouts Protein, fruits and vegetables are very healthy and essential in muscle growth, but you need to build these muscles with certain workouts. Muscles that really help you hit the golf ball farther are the leg muscles and the core muscles. I will do lots of squats and dead lifts that target the legs and core. I will also do crunches/sit-ups which target the core. ![]() This is a picture of me today just before hitting one.
