There are just under two months left until the New Year. That is plenty of time to get in Golf Shape. Don’t wait until the New Year to start your golf fitness program.
Start by doing a few exercises everyday and you will not only improve your game, but you’ll shape up your body at the same time.
Only about 1/3 of U.S. adults get regular of exercise, according to the National Health Interview Survey. That means that more than half of our population are not getting the health benefits of exercise including lowering blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar levels.
Studies also show that even 15 minutes a day of moderate exercise, six days a week could reduce the risk of death by 14 percent compared with people who aren’t active at all.
Since you know you have to exercise anyway for better health, then why not work on your golf game at the same time. Here is a mini-core workout that takes 10 to 15 minutes that can help you develop core strength.

What is Cardiogolf?
Cardiogolf (www.cardiogolf.com) is a 60-minute golf-specific workout that is taught by certified instructors using an area in a gym or at a practice range. Using the specially designed Cardio Club participants learn exercises to promote better swing mechanics, flexibility, strength and balance throughout the golf swing. The exercises are set to music which makes this program ideal for a group exercise class. It accommodates every golfer regardless of gender, age and skill level or fitness level. Benefits include building strength, stamina, balance and flexibility.
Who developed Cardiogolf?
The Cardiogolf Fitness Program was created by Karen Palacios-Jansen. Karen, an AFAA certified personal trainer and LPGA teaching professional and is managing editor of Golf Fitness Magazine. Over the years she has instructed hundreds of professional and amateur golfers using this unique and effective program and has been featured in several top golf publications illustrating this success.
Why Cardiogolf?
Karen used to have a dilemma: spend her free time working out or working on her golf swing. Golf may be good mental exercise, but as far as a physical exertion it can’t compete with aerobics. So she got to thinking, maybe she could do both at the same time.
Learning to play golf requires a lot of time, effort and money. To play consistently, you must spend countless hours at a golf course. To achieve power, you must train your body, spending time in the gym lifting weights and stretching most days of the week.
Through analysis and research Karen developed a program that revolutionizes how people learn and practice the game of golf. Cardiogolf is a way for golfers to improve their swing mechanics and fitness levels at the same time.
Cardiogolf –The Core Workout is the second DVD to LPGA Teacher of the Year and Certified Personal Trainer Karen Palacios-Jansen’s Cardiogolf Fitness Program. Cardiogolf uses easy-to-learn movements without the need of leaving the privacy of your own home. In Karen’s newest DVD, you’ll learn core specific exercises to help improve your golf swing, lengthen your drives and reshape your body at the same time. You know you need to exercise for better health, so why not practice your golf swing at the same time.
There is nothing like Cardiogolf on the market today. This unique golf fitness program is designed to improve swing biomechanics, increase clubhead speed for more power and tone your body at the same time. Karen demonstrates proper technique step-by-step in a unique format that is easy to follow. The workout can be modified and intensified to fit the needs of players of all levels. Karen has taught her Cardiogolf fitness program to hundreds of golfers to help them achieve incredible results. To order visit www.cardiogolfcore.com or call 1-704-663-5199.
