S E38: The Training Method Behind Scottie Scheffler's Breakthrough

Author: Big Swing Media July 15, 2026 Duration: 21:25
The biggest threat to your golf game may not be your swing. It may be what your body is doing during the rest of the day.In this YouTube-exclusive episode of The Big Swing with Jimmy Roberts, Jimmy sits down with Dr. Jeremy James, founder of GolfForever, to discuss back pain, mobility, aging, injury prevention, and the physical limitations that quietly cost golfers distance, consistency, and pain-free rounds.James explains why sitting may be one of the most damaging habits in modern life, how prolonged inactivity weakens the muscles that support the back, and why the golf swing can become particularly stressful when the body is not properly prepared.Drawing on his experience operating a chronic-pain clinic in Aspen, James shares how he began developing a more accessible system that combined education, movement assessments, personalized exercise programming, and golf-specific training. That work eventually became GolfForever.The conversation also covers:Why so many golfers experience back painHow sitting affects the spine, glutes, and overall mobilityWhy improving the body can also improve the golf swingHow GolfForever personalizes training for each userThe role Scottie Scheffler played in the company’s growthHow the product helped Scheffler address knee painWhy golfers often begin losing distance and stamina after 30The difference between training for pain relief and athletic performanceHow Jeremy grew the company from a back-pain platform into a national golf brandHis perspective on exercise, nutrition, fasting, and longevityWhy golfers do not have to accept physical decline as they ageThis is a practical conversation about playing longer, moving better, reducing pain, and keeping your body capable of supporting the golf game you want.🔔 Subscribe for new episodes every Wednesday▶️ Watch on YouTube | 🎙️ Listen on Apple Podcasts & Spotify📺 Airing on Golf Channel every TuesdayThe Big Swing with Jimmy Roberts is produced by Big Swing Media.
