In this episode of the Athletic Motion Golf Podcast, Mike Granato and Shaun Webb break down the most common golf swing tips and rank them in the 2025 Golf Instruction Tier List — from Top Notch to Needs to Be BANNED.

This is one of the most brutally honest and entertaining breakdowns of swing advice on the internet.

We cover polarizing topics like:

• Is "Lag" really that important?
• Why "Swing Your Swing" is misused by amateur golfers
• The Arm Swing Illusion every player needs to understand
• The truth about "Release Patterns"
• Why “Feel Ain’t Real” might be your worst mantra

🚫 Some advice gets called out as Bro Theory or Cringe, while others are ranked as Tour-level essentials. Whether you’re a golf coach, player, or just love swing science — this episode is packed with insight that can help or completely shift how you approach your game.

If you’re tired of one-size-fits-all golf tips and want clarity on what actually works (and what’s just regurgitated nonsense), hit play now.

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.

🎯 If you want to increase clubhead speed, avoid injury, and understand what REALLY works in golf speed training, this is the must-watch golf podcast. We also preview the new Speed University program that’s about to change the way golfers train.

This episode is packed with game-changing insights for amateurs, pros, and coaches alike.
