Fit Over 40 Dallas

10/13/2026

I recently had the opportunity to share my story with VoyageDallas.

After 39 years in fitness and performance, one lesson has become increasingly important to me:

We don't train at 40, 50, and 60 as we did at 20.

Over the years, I’ve worked with men and women who want to feel stronger and healthier—but don’t want crowded gyms, punishing workouts, or hours spent exercising.

That’s the purpose behind Fit Over 40 Dallas: personalized, 30-minute workouts in a private studio, designed around your body, your goals, and your experience.

The goal goes beyond how you look. It’s about staying strong, moving with confidence, and having the energy to enjoy life for years to come.

I’m grateful for the opportunity to share my story and the philosophy behind what I do.

MEN OVER 50: Your golf swing doesn’t just need practice—your body needs to be able to make the swing.

As we get older, we naturally begin to lose mobility, strength, balance, and rotational power.

And when your body can’t move the way your golf swing requires, you may start seeing:

⛳ Less distance
⛳ A shorter backswing
⛳ Poor balance
⛳ Inconsistent ball striking
⛳ More aches and pains after a round

That’s where golf fitness comes in.

The goal isn’t to train like you’re 25.

It’s to build a stronger, more mobile and more durable body so you can play better golf now—and keep playing for years to come.

If you’re a golfer over 50 in the Dallas area and want to find out what may be limiting your swing, message me about a Golf Fitness Assessment.

⛳ Does Your Back Hurt During or After a Round of Golf?

Your back tightens on the back nine. Your backswing gets shorter. You finish 18 holes feeling stiff and sore.

Sound familiar?

The golf swing requires your body to rotate, stabilize, and transfer force. When your hips or upper back don’t move well, your lower back may have to compensate.

Physical limitations that can affect your swing include:

✅ Limited hip mobility
✅ Restricted upper-back rotation
✅ Weak glutes
✅ Poor core stability
✅ Insufficient strength and endurance

Stretching your back alone may not address what’s causing the extra strain.

At Chris Ownbey’s Golf Fitness, we start with a TPI Golf Fitness Assessment to identify movement limitations and build the right system for your body and your golf goals.

We don’t guess. We assess.

Your golf pro wants you to get into certain positions. I help your body get there.

You want to enjoy your next round—and keep playing for decades to come.

👉 Schedule your TPI Golf Fitness Assessment today to find out whether a physical limitation is affecting your swing.

🏌️‍♂️ GOLFERS: Are Your Gym Workouts Hurting Your Golf Game?

At Chris Ownbey’s Golf Fitness, we see golfers every week who are working hard in the gym—but some traditional exercises may not be helping their golf swing.

Two exercises to take a closer look at:

❌ 1. Traditional Barbell Squat
Heavy squatting can be a great strength exercise, but for some golfers it can reinforce stiffness and compression—especially if you already have limited hip, ankle, or thoracic mobility.

❌ 2. Traditional Woodchop
It looks golf-specific because you’re rotating, but repeatedly forcing rotation under resistance doesn’t automatically create a better golf swing. Poor mechanics can reinforce the wrong movement patterns.

Instead, we want to build the mobility, stability, balance and rotational control needed to strike the ball consistently.

GLP-1 Strength Training: Protect Your Muscle While Losing Weight​
The Scale Is Only Part of the Story

Let’s be clear: there can be significant health benefits to losing excess body weight.

That’s one reason physicians may focus heavily on the number on the scale and other measurable health markers.

For someone carrying excess body fat, meaningful weight loss may help improve:
* Blood pressure
* Blood sugar and A1C
* Cardiovascular risk factors
* Mobility
* Joint stress
* Sleep apnea and sleep quality in some people
* Overall metabolic health

Those are important wins, and GLP-1 medications can be an effective medical tool for appropriate patients when prescribed and monitored by their healthcare provider.

But I don’t think the conversation should end when the number on the scale goes down.

That’s where Fit Over 40 Dallas® looks at the bigger picture.

Don’t Just Lose Weight. Rebuild Your Body.

If you lose 30 pounds but a significant portion of that loss is lean tissue, we haven’t achieved everything we could have.

Especially after 40, the goal should be bigger than simply becoming lighter.

We want to help you reduce excess body fat while preserving or building muscle, supporting bone health, improving strength, and developing eating habits you can maintain for life.

Lower Back Pain? Try This 4-Part Stretch

If lower back pain or stiffness is making it harder to move, exercise, or enjoy a round of golf, this simple 4-part stretching routine may help improve mobility and reduce tension around your lower back and hips.

As we get older, tight hips, limited mobility, poor posture, repetitive movement, and a lack of strength can all contribute to increased stress on the lower back.

In this video, Chris Ownbey, TPI Certified Golf Fitness Professional in Dallas, TX, takes you through a simple 4-part stretching sequence designed to help:

✔ Improve hip and lower-back mobility
✔ Reduce stiffness and tightness
✔ Improve rotation for the golf swing
✔ Help you move more comfortably
✔ Keep your body performing as you get older

⛳ Golfers Over 40: Is Your Body Holding Back Your Swing?

If you're losing distance, struggling with rotation, dealing with stiffness, or experiencing discomfort after playing, the problem may not just be your golf swing.

Your body may be limiting what your swing can do.

A TPI Golf Fitness Assessment can identify physical limitations in your mobility, flexibility, balance, stability, and strength that may be affecting your golf swing.
