I recently got Mark Rippetoe's dvd Starting Strength..it's a great companion to his book. The dvd provides an excellent visual to his instructions on the 5 basic barbell exercises.

Thats a good one. Highly recommended.

Has increased chest/arm development hampered your upper body range of motion golfwise, particularly as it relates to the arms moving across the chest? I gain muscle easily, and have been worried about this ever since I made the decision to get back into lifting.
Hasn't set me back one bit. The only thing that sets me back is delayed onset muscle syndrome (DOMS) which is the normal muscle pain you feel a day or two after a good workout. As long as I stay warm and stretch well before and during play, I'm fine.
If you are like me and tend to get a little bulky through upper body, just take a little extra hip turn to keep everything on plane. Upper body muscle is usually very relaxed and nimble during a golf swing anyway.
I'm more flexible now than when I was in my 30's/40's.

Hey Bagger, thanks a lot for the props, now back to the gym!

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)
