Transitioning into Spring Training-

As golfers, our bodies are our most essential tools on the course. Just as we adapt our swings to various conditions and terrains, it’s crucial to transition our workout routines to optimize our performance and prevent injury. Transitioning our golf-specific workouts is not only about preparing for the upcoming season but also about refining our skills and addressing any weaknesses. For the next couple of weeks CardioGolf® programming focuses on increasing endurance, cooridination, balance and swing fundamentals to help us get ready for golf season.

This week CardioGolf® workout routines are based on ‘interval circuit training’ or HIIT (high intensity interval training) where golfers do doing a variety of exercises or a “circuit”. CardioGolf® provides simple fitness routines that exercises combining cardiovascular endurance and strength exercises with golf- specific exercises and drills. But do not worry, you do not have to do high impact exercises. The exercises may be high intensity to get your heart pumping, but you can always modify the exercises for your fitness level.

Here are a few points about high intensity interval training:

Regular cardiovascular exercise generally consists of one movement performed at a slow and steady pace over a long period of time and only works on cardiovascular endurance. Interval circuit training consists of short bursts of intense exercise followed by recovery periods, which can help build endurance, strength and flexibility because of the variety of exercises and movements.
Combining strength and cardiovascular exercise into an interval circuit or HIIT can be more beneficial than cardiovascular or strength training alone because the intensity of the exercises raises the resting metabolism, which can help burn more calories in less time.
Interval circuit training or HIIT prepares the body for “burst” sports, such as golf, that require an intense amount of activity in a short amount of time.
Interval circuit training or HIIT can be less intimidating than a long cardio workout because a person is doing short exercise bursts of 20 to 40 seconds of several different exercises instead of 40 to 60 minutes of only one exercise.
An interval circuit is easy to perform at home, in a hotel room or at a gym. This form of exercise cuts workout time by nearly half.

Each golfer should work at their own pace. Choose an intensity level based on the current fitness level of the golfer.
