A Golf Exercise Program Will Leave Your Playing Partners In Envy

It's no secret that a golf exercise program can put you heads and tails above your playing partners and competitors. Why do you think all the Pro's are doing it?

Tip: Test your posture when preparing to swing by wiggling your toes. If you can do this without difficulty, you are probably leaning too far back from the ball.

Golf is no longer just the leisure game it used to be. It is now recognized as an athletic sport. As with all other athletic sports, your body's strength plays a crucial part in how well you play the game.

Tip: When addressing each putt, it is important to have your hands slightly ahead of the line between your head and the ball. Maintain this position while you complete your swing.

FACT: A stronger body plays better golf. Most strength-building workouts can be beneficial to some degree, but a golf exercise program will enable you to hit longer -- and straighter -- drives with less effort and hit more accurate shots, which will consequently lower your scores.

GOLF TIP: Strengthen Your Back and Prevent Low Back Pain -- so that you can play 18 holes without fatigue

Tip: Therefore, you should stretch prior to every round and make sure to drink sufficient amounts of water. Taking mindful care of your physique contributes to your success on the golf course.

Did you know that doing even just one exercise will greatly improve the strength of your back so that you will be able to play 18 holes, or hit balls all day without any pain?

Tip: Keeping your legs stable while striking the ball will produce a more powerful golf swing. What your legs do is shift power throughout your body, so when you move your legs you actually create less impact on the ball which could alter it's course of action and reduce your distance.

I call this powerful little exercise the "Lying Superman." You won't believe the amazing difference this exercise can make in your strength until you actually do it -- so go for it! All you have to do is lie on your stomach on the floor with your hands at your sides. Raise both your upper body (chest), arms and legs as high as you can. Hold it for a count of 10. And that's it! Just do this simple exercise for 2 sets every day and you can say goodbye to low back pain!

Tip: Avoid tensing up before you address the ball. This is a common mistake made by novice golfers.

Playing golf at an optimum level requires muscular strength, power, and endurance. Contrary to what most people think, long practice sessions and hitting hundreds of balls will not improve these components. In fact, they will only result in physical injuries (from overuse) and a great deal of frustration.

Participating in a golf exercise program is the answer!
