Get Your Routine Going-

As the weather gets nicer, we will want to get out to practice and play golf as often as we can, but sometimes life happens and we don’t get to do exactly what we want.  If you are busy this spring, it is important to maximize the time that you do have to practice and play.

This week’s workouts will help you improve your swing technique and get exercise at the same time to help you save time.

Making practice swings will not only tone your muscle and burn some calories, but the act of swinging over and over again can help you improve your swing technique and improve muscular endurance.

Our practice swings are usually smoother, longer and more on-plane with better tempo than our real swings.  As you make practice swings, you can focus on making certain motions to improve technique such as making a fuller shoulder turn, keeping your spine angle throughout the swing and shifting your weight correctly.

As you make practice swings, you can swing faster than you usually do to help you get used to swinging faster to improve clubhead speed. As you make practice swings, you can work on certain moves in your swing without worrying where the ball is going.

THIS MONTH’S FOCUS IS ON STABILITY AND PUTTING

Stretch to Better Putting

The world’s best golf athletes are preparing to perform at the highest level this week after a long layoff . The rest of us are just dipping our toes into the golf pond, trying to get back into the game and find some enjoyment.

Practice is tone of the most important factors in game improvement. But if you haven’t practiced or played in a while, you may find your body is tight and weak, therefore not be able to take your muscles and joints through full range of motion. Or you may find that practicing for a longtime is boring and rough on muscles and joints. And if you have been practicing, your body may not be moving correctly, consequently leading to swing compensations, miss-hit shots and even injury.

Which is why I suggest to many of my students, that they incorporate mobility exercises into daily routines.  The process of stretching and practicing at the same time will help accelerate the game improvement process while preventing injury.

Because the golf swing requires repeating the same movement, some muscles become overused, others may weaken causing imbalances. Stretching as you practice can help increase range of motion in your muscles and joint and lead to better performance.
