Golf
exercise and stretch. This is a
combination I use in all of my golf
fitness programs both online and with
my personal golf clients. It’s the
ultimate combination to improve the
golfers swing quickly and efficiently.
A fitness program for golfers that
does not incorporate a golf exercise
and stretch is doing more harm than
good. Golfers need that blend of
dynamic strength specific to the golf
swing and the range of motion to hold
it for 18 holes.
So many times I hear a golfer mention
stretching only. This is a big
mistake! Stretching without
strengthening does not equal permanent
range of motion improvements. An
over-stretched muscle that doesn’t
have strength opens up the
possibilities for injury.
That is why golf exercise and stretch
is the key. For every golf exercise,
there is an appropriate stretch.
Taking this approach will create a
powerful swing with less tension and
stress put on the body.
An example of golf exercise and
stretch is doing a back hyperextension
for strength, and then lying on your
back, grabbing your knees and pulling
them into your chest to stretch your
back. That would be a perfect
combination for your lower back.
This is how your entire golf exercise
program should be laid out. And
notice, it’s never just one or the
other. It’s both!
If you ever come across a golf fitness
trainer who doesn’t incorporate
both…run! That’s not the program
for you. Any professional should
mention both topics, not just one or
the other.
So hopefully you have gained a little
knowledge as to a golf exercise and
stretch program.
