Full Length Success Stories and Testimonials
John M. age - 52Before working with Tim, I loved golf — but my body didn’t. I was struggling with lower back pain after almost every round, and my swing had become inconsistent. I knew I needed help, not just with my game, but with my fitness for golf.
That’s when I started training with Tim Shevlin, a TPI-certified fitness professional. From day one, I could tell this was different from anything I’d tried before. Instead of generic workouts, we focused on mobility, stability, and strength tailored specifically to my golf swing. He assessed my movement patterns, identified limitations in my hips and shoulders, and built a program that addressed those issues head-on.
Within just a few weeks, I started to feel more balanced and powerful. My flexibility improved, my swing felt smoother, and — maybe best of all — my back pain was gone.
Now, I’m driving the ball 20 yards farther, playing more consistently, and finishing rounds feeling strong instead of sore. But the biggest difference is confidence. I feel like I finally have the physical foundation to support the kind of golf I’ve always wanted to play.
Working with Tim has completely changed how I approach the game. It’s not just about swinging better — it’s about moving better, feeling better, and playing without pain.
If you’re serious about improving your golf performance and longevity, I can’t recommend Tim Shevlin enough.
Ethan C. - age 34I came to Tim not because I was injured, but because I wanted to see how much better I could get. I was playing off a 2 handicap, striking the ball well, but I knew there was more potential in my game if my body could move and perform at a higher level.
Right away, Tim’s TPI-certified approach made the difference. He analyzed my movement patterns, identified small inefficiencies in my rotation and stability, and designed a golf-specific fitness plan that improved my strength, speed, and balance — without changing my swing mechanics.
After just a few months, I noticed the difference: faster clubhead speed, better control through impact, and more endurance during long rounds and practice sessions. My drives picked up 10–15 yards, my accuracy improved, and I finished tournaments feeling strong instead of fatigued.
The results speak for themselves — I went from a 2 handicap to a +1, and I’ve never felt more confident in my game.
Working with Tim gave me a physical foundation that matches the precision of my technique — it’s been the missing piece in my performance.
If you’re serious about taking your golf to the next level, this is where it starts.
“My son loves golf, but as he was growing, his balance and consistency started to struggle. Working with Tim Shevlin has completely changed that — his posture, rotation, and confidence have all improved. It’s amazing to see him move better, hit stronger shots, and love the game even more. This program is the best thing we’ve done for his development.”Paul H. – Father of 13-year-old Jack
Mark R. - age 45I’ve been playing golf for over 20 years, and for a long time, my biggest frustration wasn’t my technique — it was my body. I had developed tightness and stiffness in my shoulders that made it difficult to turn fully or finish my swing comfortably. No matter how much I practiced, I couldn’t rotate the way I needed to. I was losing both distance and control, and every round left me feeling more limited and sore.
That’s when I started working with Tim Shevlin. From the very first session, I realized this was going to be different from any generic workout or stretch routine I’d tried before. [Your Name] ran a full movement screen, identified exactly where my mobility restrictions were, and explained how they were affecting my swing mechanics. It was eye-opening.
He built a customized program focused on shoulder and thoracic mobility, stability through my core, and better control in my upper back. The sessions were challenging but smart — every exercise had a clear purpose, and each week I could feel myself moving better.
After just a few weeks, I noticed a huge difference. My swing felt smoother and more natural, my posture improved, and the tension in my shoulders started to disappear. Now, instead of fighting against my body, everything works together. I’m hitting the ball farther, more consistently, and I finish rounds without any discomfort.
Working with Tim has completely changed how I move and how I play. I’ve gained strength, mobility, and confidence — and for the first time in years, my swing feels effortless again.
If you’re struggling with shoulder tightness or stiffness, this kind of golf-specific fitness training is the best investment you can make. It’s made all the difference for me.
Mike L - age 38I’ve always loved golf and considered myself a solid player, but as I got older and work and family life got busier, my body just didn’t move the way it used to. I started noticing tightness in my hips and lower back, and my swing began to feel restricted. I was losing distance off the tee, and every round left me feeling sore for days afterward. I knew I needed to get stronger and more mobile if I wanted to keep playing — and improving — for the long haul.
That’s when I started training with Tim. From the first session, I knew I was in good hands. He took me through a full TPI movement screen, explaining exactly how my mobility limitations were affecting my swing. It wasn’t just about working out — it was about understanding how my body connects to my golf performance.
Tim designed a completely individualized program that focused on improving my hip mobility, core stability, and rotational power — all directly tied to my swing mechanics. The workouts were challenging, but they made sense. I could feel myself gaining strength without losing flexibility, and I actually started to enjoy training because I could see how it translated to my game.
Within a few weeks, the results were obvious. My swing felt smoother, more balanced, and more powerful. I started hitting the ball 15–20 yards farther off the tee, but just as importantly, I was finishing rounds feeling energized instead of exhausted. My back pain disappeared, and I finally had the freedom to move the way my swing demanded.
Working with Tim has completely transformed my golf and my overall fitness. I feel stronger, more mobile, and more confident than ever before — both on the course and off it.
If you’re serious about your game, don’t just practice your swing — train your body for it. Tim showed me how powerful that connection can be.
Sarah D - age 52I’ve played golf for years, but over time, I started to experience lower back pain that made it harder and harder to enjoy the game. After almost every round, I’d be stiff and sore for days. I tried stretching on my own, using massage guns, even taking breaks from golf — but nothing seemed to help. It got to the point where I was dreading the last few holes because I knew how uncomfortable I’d feel afterward.
That’s when a friend recommended I see Tim Shevlin. Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect — I thought “golf fitness” would just be another workout program. But it turned out to be completely different. Tim assessed how my body moved in my golf swing and showed me how certain mobility issues and weaknesses were putting stress on my lower back. It was the first time anyone had actually connected my pain to how I was moving, not just where it hurt.
From there, he built a customized program focused on improving my hip and core stability, flexibility through my spine, and balance throughout my swing. The exercises were golf-specific, practical, and surprisingly enjoyable — and after just a few weeks, I could feel the difference. My posture improved, my body felt stronger, and the tension I’d carried for years started to disappear.
The results have been incredible. I can now play 18 holes without pain, and I actually feel more energized afterward than when I started. My swing feels smoother and more controlled, and I’ve even gained a little extra distance. But the biggest change is confidence — I no longer worry about hurting myself or cutting rounds short.
Working with Tim didn’t just fix my back — it gave me my love for the game back. I feel stronger, healthier, and happier than I have in years.
If you’re struggling with pain or stiffness, don’t assume it’s just part of getting older. This kind of golf-focused training makes a world of difference.
Holly K - age 52I hired Tim Shevlin at Green Physique to assist me after a horrible accident and two serious surgeries. We’ve been working on my rehabilitation for about one year and have made major strides in that time.
My range of motion in my knee has improved from 116 degrees to 130 degrees; while my ankle has gone from -7 degrees to +11 degrees. When I first arrived in Pine Island I was religiously using a walker! I am now able to walk without the aid of a cane.
Not only are my results encouraging, but he teaches you how to become self-sufficient in the long run. He is a great resource for all types of wellness issues; i.e., nutrition, supplements, etc. He goes at a pace that is right for you continuously evaluating progress. He is creative in using apparatus around one's home to assist in the exercises so you don't have to invest a substantial amount in equipment.
Tim does research and looks at new information all the time to meet my ongoing needs. If you want a full service expert who is personable, informative, encouraging and gets results at great value, I would highly recommend Tim and the Green Physique.
Tom R - age 45I’ve been an avid golfer for most of my adult life, but over the past few years, my game had started to slip — not because of my technique, but because of my body. My shoulders had become so stiff and tight that I couldn’t make a full turn in my backswing, and my follow-through always felt forced. I started compensating in my swing, which led to inconsistency, loss of distance, and a lot of frustration.
I knew I needed to do something different, so I started working with TPI trainer Tim Shevlin. Right from the start, I could tell this wasn’t just another “workout plan.” Tim did a complete TPI movement assessment and pinpointed exactly where my shoulder and upper-back limitations were coming from. He explained how those restrictions were affecting my posture, rotation, and even my ability to stay in balance throughout my swing.
He then built a training program designed specifically for me — focused on shoulder mobility, thoracic rotation, and overall core stability. Every exercise had a clear purpose and connected directly to my golf performance. The workouts were challenging but targeted, and I could feel progress almost immediately.
After a few weeks, my shoulders started to feel looser, and my range of motion improved dramatically. My swing felt smoother, more controlled, and I was finally able to complete a full turn without pain or tension. Within a couple of months, I was hitting the ball farther and more consistently than I had in years — and, more importantly, I was enjoying the game again.
What impressed me most about Tim was his ability to connect the science of movement with the art of the golf swing. He didn’t just give me exercises — he helped me understand why my body was moving the way it was and how to fix it.
Working with Tim has been a game-changer. I’m pain-free, my swing feels natural again, and my confidence on the course is back. I can’t thank him enough for helping me rediscover my game.
