Day 20
TAKE THE CHALLENGE. POST A NOTE ON MY FACEBOOK PAGE LETTING ME KNOW THAT YOU ARE UP FOR THE CHALLENGE.
THE CARDIOGOLF 1000 PRACTICE SWING CHALLENGE
The challenge is straightforward-simply make 1000 practice swings over the month to improve your swing technique and increase clubhead speed.
You don’t need to go to the driving range or golf course, you can simply make practice swings in your garage or living room at home a few minutes a day (just make sure that you don’t whack the ceiling or walls!)
- If you don’t have enough room to swing a regular club, use the ‘Shortee Practice Training Club’.

THE CARDIOGOLF SLOPE
Break it Down-make 30 practice swings a day for 30 days and you will have made 900 swings over the course of a month. Okay, so it is not exactly a 1000 swings, but close enough (if you really want to get technical, you’ll have to take 33.3333 swing per day to reach 1000 practice swings). The amount is not the point, the point is to be consistent with your practice; take a few minutes out of your day to work on your golf swing and get some exercise.
How the Challenge Works-
1. Warm Up First-
Before you play, practice or work out, you should always do some kind of warm-up routine to prepare you body to move smoothly. Do these moves using the CardioGolf Slope.
2. Make 30 Practice Swings-
After you have warmed up, make 30 practice using the CardioGolf Shortee Club.
Strengthen Obliques
This exercise is perfect for golf, since it moves the obliques to strengthen core muscles and help to make a better turn and weight shift.
Plank with Rotation
- Start in the basic plank position and then twist your body and raise one arm up into side plank so that your body forms a letter “T”.
- Extend your top arm up as far as you can and keep hips lifted so that your head, spineand legs form a straight line.
- Hold this position for 20 to 30 seconds.
- Repeat on opposite side.
- Repeat motion for 8 to 10 repetitions.
This exercise will strengthen the core but also the muscles in the shoulders. Pivoting the body around the shoulder strengthens and stretches those muscles so that you gain more control of the club for more clubhead speed.
