The first thing you have to work on for golf fitness is your flexibility. Which makes sense, because in order to execute your golf swing correctly you have to develop the range of motions within your joints and muscles. Flexibility exercises should be done no less than four days a week. So that the exercises can be done correctly, allow ten to fifteen per session. Make sure you pay very close attention to your technique. If you aren’t doing your exercises correctly, then you won’t be doing any good for your golf game. And, finally, it’s always recommended to check with a doctor or physician before starting any type of exercise program.
You also need to incorporate strength training in your golf fitness program. The important thing with strength training is similarity. You want to do exercises that closely resemble your golf swing or at least a certain phase of it.

Doing this persistently will allow the same body relationship to the ball on each and every stroke, ensuring a consistent swing and a consistent game. This program is not about your golf swing, but improving your game. Until recently, professional golfers were notorious for downplaying the importance of exercise. But with the emergence of Tiger Woods and the focus on his physical strength and conditioning, fitness has begun to play a critical role in the day-to-day routine of many tour players. Many PGA players have hired personal trainers and physical therapists, and can often be found spending as much, if not more time, in the to
