Golf
swing exercises are the missing link
to adding tremendous power to your
golf swing quickly. To be able to
execute an effective golf swing...golf
swing exercises will enhance your
bodies abilitiy to move throughout the
required ranges of motion...enabling
you to hit drives you know you are
capable of.
The other reason why golf swing
exercises are so important is in the
fact that a golf swing by its’ very
nature is a very unnatural and awkward
movement of the body and muscles. It
therefore stands to reason that the
body will usually resist the golf
swing action and this is why it
appears to be so difficult to master.
However when you implement golf swing
exercises to strengthen and condition
the relevant muscles, the golf swing
becomes less awkward to the body.
Let us now take a closer look at the
movements involved in a golf swing so
that we come up with the most
effective golf swing exercises that
will impact most dramatically on the
quality of your game.
The golf swing is actually a turn back
(rotate) and turn through (rotate).
Most of the movement is pure
rotational in nature. This means doing
golf swing exercises like a seated
twist holding a dumbbell straight out
in front of you is a very effective
exercise in strengthening and
conditioning the muscles used in the
golf swing.
Be careful not to use very heavy
weights in this golf swing exercise.
3-5 pound dumb bells are ideal.
Remember that a golf club is not heavy
in fact it weights less than a pound.
Repeating golf swing exercises like
this as many times as you can within a
30-minute session without straining
yourself. Do remember to warm up
before you begin the session and also
to warm down when you are through.
Warming up ensures that you do not
start with your muscles cold.
Stretches involving the muscles that
you are going to use can also be
extremely useful before you go into
these golf swing exercises.
