Gold Training: The Key to Great Golf
If you’ve watched any golf on the television you’ve no
doubt heard the commentator’s mention golf training. It’s no
secret that 95 percent of professional golfers are doing some
form of golf training.
If their livelihood depends on their performance and they
are participating in golf fitness training, why wouldn’t
amateur golfers do the same?
The golf swing is one of the most physically demanding
movements on the human body of all sports.
Swinging a three and a half foot long implement at upwards
of 100 mph, while maintaining balance, stabilization and proper
swing mechanics is very difficult.
I don’t think I have to convince you of that do I?
The “only” way to be able to accomplish this is by improving
the strength AND flexibility of your golf muscles.
What’s the simplest way to do this? I can tell you not on a
machine in your local gym.
Just take a look at the golf swing to realize it’s “on your
feet” and bent at the waist. How could sitting in a machine
help that?
It can’t! You’ve got to do as many exercises as possible on
your feet, involving balance, coordination, strength and
flexibility.
You don’t even have to be a golf fitness specialist to come
up with some creative golf exercises on your own.
How about making your golf swing while holding a single
handweight? You can’t get anymore golf-specific than that.
>What about some exercise tubing (that’s inexpensive)
attached to your door and make your golf swing? Another very
golf-specific exercise.
You don’t need a gym membership to do any of these and many
more golf exercises. Convenience of doing these exercises in
your home saves time and money.
There is a lot of information (including books) showing
golfers on machines in gyms. That’s not “golf-specific”, that’s
“general fitness”.
If you want to improve your game quickly and easily, try
doing these “in-home” golf training exercises. You won’t
believe how quickly your body will respond and how you’ll be
the LONGEST hitter in your foursome in no-time.
