Welcome to the Athletic Motion Golf Podcast with Mike Granato and Shaun Webb — and today, we’re diving DEEP into the world of golf speed training with none other than Fast Eddie Fernandes, 3X World Long Drive Champion and creator of the revolutionary HIITS Golf driver system.

In this power-packed episode, Eddie reveals why most speed training is DEAD WRONG — and how hitting actual golf balls with variable weighting (instead of just air) is the key to gaining real, sustainable clubhead speed without blowing out your joints.

We break down the science of anticipatory contraction, why your body braces for impact when hitting a ball (but NOT when swinging at air), and how Eddie’s training helped him hit 220+ ball speed at age 47 — dominating the long drive circuit.
