GOLFGYM® INTRODUCES TWO NEW JOEY D SIGNATURE SERIES DVDS
SANTA ANA, CA – March 23, 2009 – GolfGym, the industry leader in golf fitness announced the introduction of its new Joey D Signature Series GolfGym® Weighted Club DVD and Balance Ball Training DVD. The DVDs feature one of the elite biomechanics, strength and conditioning coaches on the PGA Tour, Joey Diovisalvi, affectionately known by Tour players as “Coach Joey D”.  

“The Joey D Signature Series of DVDs are not like your typical instructional DVDs. His ten years of experience with the top PGA Tour players in the world will become quickly apparent in the first minute of watching. It’s as though Coach Joey D is in your living room walking you through, step by step, the reason for performing each golf-specific movement pattern,” said Ken Pierce, President, GolfGym. “It doesn’t matter your age or your skill level, you will understand how you too can train just like the Tour Pros.”

The GolfGym Weighted Club DVD features Coach Joey D demonstrating golf-specific movement patterns using the GolfGym Club 28 or 38. The movement patterns focus on posture, pelvic tilt, balance, flexibility and rotation in the golf swing. They can be performed with any weighted training club or even just a seven iron if you don't have a weighted club. Joey D recommends that you use a weighted training club to warm up prior to play. The 30-minute DVD also features a bonus section where you will see PGA Tour Pros using the weighted club prior to heading to the course.  There is also an offer within the DVD to receive a FREE GolfGym PowerStance loop to strengthen the lower body. Go “Inside the Ropes” in a special Bonus Segment to see how Tour Players use the weighted club.

The GolfGym Balance Ball Training DVD is ideal for use with the GolfGym Balance Ball or any similar balance or fitness ball you may already own. By doing the golf-specific exercises featured on the DVD, you can improve your core strength and your game in just 10 minutes a day. In this DVD, Coach Joey D walks you through the exact exercises he uses with his players on the PGA Tour including specific exercises for your abdominal core and lower back, pre-round warm-up exercises, and rotational strength exercises. This DVD includes Bonus video from inside the PGA Tour Fitness Trailer.

As a coach on the PGA Tour for over 10 years, Joey D is best known for coaching Vijay Singh during a seven year period that was highlighted when Vijay became #1 in the world.  Joey D’s coaching methods with Vijay were featured on an ABC Special, Practice Like a PGA Tour Player, which showcased Vijay’s dedication and work ethic to improve his golf fitness and performance, and a CBS Special, The Science of Golf, which focused on the biomechanics of the golf swing.

All GolfGym products are easy to use, portable and affordable. They are all used daily by PGA Tour players in the PGA Tour fitness trailers. Each GolfGym product includes an Instructional DVD featuring Coach Joey D as he walks you through all the exercises he employs on the PGA Tour with his players Pat Perez, Ryuji Imada, Charlie Wi, Tom Pernice Jr., Jason Dufner, and Jason Gore just to name a few.

Each DVD has a suggested retail price of $19.95.
