golf specific exercise programs

In order for an exercise program to be most helpful, it must be golf-specific. Warming up by throwing a shot put is not going to help your golf game. Fitness programs for other sports aren't designed around the specific muscles, movement patterns, and physical-performance factors that support the golf swing.

Of equal importance to golf-specific training is customized fitness training. If you start an exercise program that isn't designed around your personal physical weaknesses, isn't tailored to the special demands of golf, and isn't designed to accomplish your personal performance goals, then the chance that the exercise program will help is nil.

Go out and find a specialist to work with and then ask what sort of initial physical performance evaluation will be performed. The specialist will design your program from his or her findings. The elements of the evaluation should include at least the following:

Health history of past medical problems, pain problems, injuries related to golf, and so on

Tests to identify postural, structural, or biomechanical imbalances that may interfere with your ability to swing

Balance assessment

Muscle and joint flexibility testing

Muscle strength, endurance, and control testing

Biomechanical video analysis of the golf swing

Golf skills evaluation (measurement of current swing and scoring performance potential, including elements of the swing such as clubhead speed and swing path, as well as driving distance, greens and fairways in regulation, handicap, and so on)

Goals assessment (evaluation of performance goals, purpose for playing golf, and deadlines for reaching goals)

I'm proud of you. Following these steps helps you and your specific golf muscles perform better, and it beats watching Judge Judy during the day. Your physical abilities and conditioning will merge, and you'll become a force to be reckoned with out on the links. Enjoy your new outlook on golf!
