About this episode

Todd Graves is the founder of Graves Golf and one of the leading advocates for Moe Norman’s Single Plane Swing. His work centers on designing movement that is efficient, joint-friendly, and durable across the lifespan.

In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong talks with Todd about how golf biomechanics offer a powerful case study for aging well. They explore how joint-friendly mechanics can reduce back strain, preserve mobility, and extend not just a golf career, but an active life. This is a conversation about designing movement that lasts, why durability matters more than perfection, and how the principles of good golf mechanics translate into better aging.

Key topics

Why most golfers don’t need another tip—they need a different starting point

Golf instruction often piles fixes on top of faulty fundamentals, leaving players stuck in constant rebuild mode. Todd breaks down how starting from a mechanically sound setup removes guesswork and inconsistency. The issue isn’t effort or motivation—it’s that most golfers were taught the game backward.

Why most movement advice fails people as they age, and what golf quietly reveals about longevity

Longevity conversations often focus on doing more—more intensity, more flexibility, more corrective work—when the real risk is accumulating unnecessary strain over time. Todd explains how golf exposes this problem clearly: systems built on timing, compensation, and athleticism break down as bodies age, regardless of motivation. By redesigning movement around structure, repeatability, and joint-friendly mechanics, he reframes longevity as a design problem rather than a willpower problem—an insight that applies far beyond the golf course.

What “intelligent golf” reveals about how we make decisions

Golfers have access to more tips, videos, and opinions than ever, yet many feel more confused—and inconsistent—than before. Todd argues that the issue isn’t lack of information, but lack of clear principles to evaluate it, which leads players to chase fixes instead of building understanding. By using golf as a case study, he reframes intelligence as the ability to filter noise, test ideas against evidence, and commit to structure—an approach that applies just as powerfully off the course as it does on it.
