About Zach
Zach Hawkinberry built Greenside Performance on a simple belief: that every golfer deserves a training program as individual as their swing.
Armed with an NASM Personal Trainer certification and a suite of TPI credentials — Fitness Level 3, Junior Development Level 2, and Power Level 2 — Zach combines evidence-based fitness principles with deep golf-specific biomechanics knowledge. The result is training that doesn't just make you fitter; it makes you a better golfer.
Based in Myrtle Beach, SC, Zach works with a wide range of athletes: competitive amateurs looking to lower their handicap, senior golfers wanting to stay healthy and mobile, junior players building athletic foundations, and recreational players who simply want to enjoy the game without pain.
The cornerstone of every program is the TPI movement screen — a 16-point physical evaluation that identifies the body's specific limitations and correlates them to common swing faults. This isn't generic fitness advice. It's precision training backed by the same methodology used by coaches on the PGA Tour.
When Zach isn't training athletes, you'll find him on the course himself — constantly deepening his understanding of the game and what it demands from the human body.
“I don't just build workouts. I build athletes. And athletes play better golf.”
— Zach Hawkinberry
Our Approach
The Greenside Philosophy
Three principles that guide every program we build.
Screen First
We never assume. Every athlete starts with a thorough movement evaluation so the program addresses real deficits, not hypothetical ones. Data drives design.
Personalize Everything
No two bodies are alike. Your program is built for you specifically — your movement patterns, your swing faults, your schedule, and your goals.
Train for Transfer
Fitness gains only matter if they show up on the course. Every exercise is chosen because it translates directly to swing power, consistency, or durability.
About TPI
What Is TPI?
The Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) is the world's leading educational organization dedicated to the study of how the human body functions in relation to the golf swing. Founded in 2003, TPI has studied thousands of golfers ranging from the elite tour level to the club amateur.
TPI-certified coaches understand the connection between physical limitations and swing faults. Rather than teaching how to swing a golf club, TPI professionals focus on how your body can best swing the club — given your individual strengths and weaknesses.
Zach's TPI Level 3 Fitness certification represents the highest level of physical screening and programming for golf performance available.
