Katalyst Distribution GmbH and the Swiss PGA are excited to announce the launch of an exclusive partnership beginning mid-February 2025. As a leading provider of cutting-edge electro-muscle stimulation (EMS) technology, Katalyst will officially become the fitness and recovery partner of the Swiss PGA.

A Partnership with Purpose

This collaboration is more than just a traditional sponsorship - it’s a shared commitment to elevating performance, enhancing recovery, and preventing injuries among golf professionals and their clients.

By integrating EMS into training routines, Katalyst will support Swiss PGA teaching pros with innovative tools that optimize strength, mobility, and endurance in golfers of all levels.

How EMS Revolutionizes Golf Training

Golf demands mobility, core stability, and speed - all of which can be significantly improved with EMS technology:

• Increased rotational strength and core stability – EMS activates deeper muscle groups that are difficult to reach with conventional training, ensuring balanced strength distribution.
• Faster recovery – EMS enhances blood circulation and muscle relaxation, reducing downtime between training and competitions.
• Injury prevention – With no external weights or impact on joints, EMS is a safe and effective way for golfers of all ages, including those in their later years, to maintain peak fitness.

Exclusive Benefits for Swiss PGA Members

Swiss PGA teaching pros and their students will gain unique advantages from this partnership:

• EMS Training Certification—Teaching pros can become certified EMS trainers, which equips them with cutting-edge techniques to enhance their coaching.
• On-Site Access to Katalyst Technology – Starting in 2025, the Katalyst Suit will be available at numerous Swiss golf clubs in collaboration with selected teaching pros. Golfers can train with EMS directly at their club or take their own Suit home, benefiting from expert guidance for even better training results.
• Sustainable Performance Gains for Golfers – Our tailored training programs enhance long-term athletic performance, helping professional golfers extend their careers and allowing recreational players to enjoy the game for a lifetime.
• Optimized Strength Training - Katalyst EMS is especially beneficial for golfers and offers a joint-friendly alternative to traditional strength training.

A Vision for the Future

Philipp Schwarz, COO of Katalyst Distribution GmbH, highlights the impact of this partnership:

“By combining Katalyst’s innovative EMS technology with the Swiss PGA’s dedication to excellence, we are helping golfers at every level optimize their fitness, mobility, and performance.”

Ronnie Zimmermann, General Manager of the Swiss PGA, adds:

“With the introduction of EMS, Swiss PGA professionals now have a powerful new tool to support their students - especially during the winter months. We are proud to be the first PGA organization worldwide to integrate EMS training on a broad scale.”
