Golf Swing Flexibility Exercises That Will Add Distance Quickly |
by:
Mike Pedersen |
Golf swing flexibility exercises that are the most effective are not what you read in all the �so-called� fitness for golf books. I make this bold statement because I bought every golf fitness book and was so disappointed I wrote my own Ultimate Golf Fitness Manual.
What I didn�t see in most of these books was dynamic (movement) stretches, especially for core flexibility. The golf swing is a rotation, therefore it only makes sense to incorporate as many core rotational movements, stretches and exercises into your routine as possible.
This is more prevalent in the senior golfer. He/she has lost a large amount of core rotation and in return massive yards off the tee. That�s the biggest complaint I hear among senior golfers is their lack of distance off the tee.
But, what�s frustrating for me is that same golfer will buy more equipment, take more lessons and hit more balls and not see improvement. This is because the �root cause� has still not been approached.
Until you fix the �machine�, you will not see improvement. Your body�s physical capabilities dictate your golf swing efficiency and power. Until you realize this and make the commitment to improve this, you�ll continue to be a very frustrated golfer.
The great thing about golf swing flexibility exercises are they don�t require any equipment and can be done anywhere. In your office�at your home�even on the golf course. There is no reason (excuse) not to participate in a golf swing flexibility exercise program.
If time is a valuable commodity you don�t have a lot of, then doing just 3-4 rotational stretches daily and you�ll see a huge difference in your power and distance.
There is only an �upside� to doing it.
How about adding 30 yards to your drives? No more back pain? Feeling like your 20 years younger and playing like it too?
I could go on and on about the benefits, but you�ve got to believe it and do it.
Just remember the golf swing is a rotational movement, so you should train your body from a rotational strength and flexibility standpoint. Taking this concise and yet effective approach will give you the quickest results from your golf swing flexibility exercises.
