A Note from Karen:

The off-season is the perfect time to start taking inventory of your body and swing so you can continue to improve and be ready for the start of next golf season.

In order to best determine how to reach your fitness goals, you first need to figure out where you are, physically. A fitness evaluation is your first step in building a golf fitness program. Identifying and correcting your physical limitations should be a focal point in your golf-specific fitness program.
