Our staff was thrilled to welcome PGA TOUR Champions player David Toms back for the Mitsubishi Electric Invitational Series hosted on Monday, April 24, 2023 Toms, a native of Monroe, Louisiana put his stamp on the Tournament Course, serving as the player consultant along with course designer Rees Jones So it was a welcome home of sorts for Toms, who has racked up two wins this year The Galleri Classic at Rancho Mirage, California and the Cologuard Classic in Tuscon, Arizona. Both wins and stellar play this year have catapulted Toms into second place in the Schwab Cup Rankings

Toms conducted an entertaining clinic for the select participants of the private event hosted on the Member Course and then treated the players to his shot-making skills on Hole #12 throughout the day. During the clinic, Toms answered questions on a range of topics, including proper ball positioning, the basics of hitting fades and draws consistently, and the top errors of most amateur players He was gracious in answering every question and even stayed to take pictures with our team members

Muscle Power: Unlocking Longevity and Optimal Health

Muscle mass is often associated with physical strength and aesthetic appeal, but its significance shows more profound health benefits Emerging research over the past decade has highlighted the numerous benefits of maintaining and building muscle mass for overall longevity and health

Protection Against Aging and Disease-

Maintaining muscle mass is crucial for healthy aging and disease prevention A 2018 study published in the American Journal of Medicine found that individuals with higher muscle mass had a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and all-cause mortality Additionally, the study highlighted that muscle mass was inversely associated with metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions linked to an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes

Increased Metabolic Health-

Muscle tissue is metabolically active, meaning it requires energy to function As such, having a higher proportion of muscle mass in the body can enhance metabolic health Research published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism in 2016 demonstrated that increased muscle mass was associated with improved insulin sensitivity and better glucose control, which are essential factors in preventing the onset of type 2 diabetes Moreover, a higher muscle mass-to-fat mass ratio has been shown to boost resting metabolic rate, facilitating weight management and reducing the risk of obesity

Enhanced Bone Health-

Muscle and bone health are intricately linked, and maintaining muscle mass plays a pivotal role in preserving bone density Studies published in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research in 2012 and 2017 revealed that higher muscle mass was associated with greater bone mineral density and reduced risk of fractures, particularly in postmenopausal women Resistance training, which helps build muscle mass, has been shown to stimulate bone formation and improve bone mineral density
