Are you eager to start a golf-fitness program but unsure of how or where to start? The key is to find out what golf related restrictions, if any, your body has. Performing a golf-fitness screen can help give you a starting point and determine what exercises you should be performing.

If you cannot do certain functional moves in everyday life-like squatting, lunging, lifting your arms above your head or even bending over, then you will have difficulty in certain parts of your golf swing. For example, if your hamstring muscles are tight, then it will be difficult for you to maintain your spine angle throughout your golf swing. Having tight shoulders, lat or neck muscles will limit your torso rotation allowing the smaller, weaker muscles, like your arms and hands, to take over at impact.

A basic golf-specific screen simply gives you key information about your physical condition. In order for you and your fitness professional to design a golf-specific exercise program, it is important to have a plan. With a golf-specific fitness screen, you will be able to determine any physical limitations that may be affecting your performance on the golf course.
