Golf fitness is one of those funny things - it's important, but it seems like those who need a good golf fitness plan the most are those who don't have one! I mean really, tell me about the stereotypical golfer - even I am not too ashamed to describe him... middle aged guy, little bit of a belly, likes to enjoy an occasional beer, might be losing some of his hair, reliving his college days by wearing a Georgia Tech hat, and has to regularly buy new golf balls from shanking them into the woods on number 3 at the Norman Course at Landsdown in Ashburn, VA. Can you picture this?
Well, we all need a good golf fitness plan to get us over the hump. It will do a few improtant things:
- Help improve your flexibility
- Develop your core strength
- Improve your stamina
- Lower your score!
You'll find all kinds of programs out there and many are designed specifically for golf. There are a few areas you should be focusing on. First, your nutritional health. Things like Chondriotin and Glucosamine can be taken as a supplement and can really hel pwith joint stiffness and pain. Second, your flexibility. The more flexible you are, the better your turn will be and you'll be able to harness more power in your swing. Thirdly, if you improve your core stregnth, you'll improve your swing speed and control - this is a must.
So, unless you're ready to just fold completely and become a stereotype, you need to get on the ball (pun intended) and start a regular golf fitness regimen. Start your plan and stick with it - your golf game will improve and then you can e-mail us and tell us how much we helped you.
