When playing any sport that requires a degree of athleticism, quality of impact makes all the difference in performance. It is therefore important to get the right balance of muscular strength and size, as well as power. For golfers it is all about the swing.
More than hitting the ball further, building the right level of strength and getting the core foundations in place prevents injury.
Previously we have looked at mobility, flexibility, core control and stability, rotation for power and speed, and most recently the importance of the glutes.
Golf is more dynamic than it is static, as such we should train similarly through:
• Different planes of motion
• Single leg exercises
• Deceleration and rotational drills
• Explosive drills
During 18 holes there are only a few occasions where you will have the perfect lie. To feel more grounded, there are a variety of fitness exercises that prepares the body for when you are faced with awkward lies on uneven ground such as in a bunker.
