Strength and Flexibility Training for Golf
Posted on April 11th, 2009 by Personal Trainer David Hansey
Golf is a great sport for general health. You are walking (yes — WALK) and you are out on the course for a long time. Anyone who goes for a walk for several hours is getting a great low impact workout.
Golfers however have a high rate of injury. Why? Well a lot of it is conditioning, some of it is failure to warm up and some of it is muscle weakness or tightness.
Tight or weak muscles will cause your game to suffer too. You will compensate for those muscles by moving differently and your stroke will suffer.
Most golfers can work on their tight or weak muscles as well as their flexibility by adding just a few moves to their strength routine.
