Although this exercise doesn’t look like the golf swing motion, the ‘Alternating Kick Exercise’ is not only an excellent warm up exercise to do before you play or practice to warm up your legs and glutes, but this exercise also improves lower body and core strength. It will also improve the flexibility in your hamstrings which is key to help maintaining posture in the golf swing.
Alternating Kicks
- Stand in a modified golf stance. Keep your abdominals muscles tight as you reach your arms parallel.
- Kick one leg up and reach for your opposite fingers tips.
- Return to the start position and repeat on opposite leg.
- Alternate kicks for 8 to 10 repetitions.
Pick up the pace or slow down to modify for your fitness level.
