31 Days to Improving Your Fitness for Better Golf in 2015

 Join me to Kickoff the New Year by Improving your Fitness for Better Golf.

Day 5-Mobility 

To maximize your full potential in the golf swing, you must have the ability to take your joints and muscles through their full range of motion.  Performing exercises that focus on muscles that are chronically tight will help your become more efficient in your golf swing.

Chest and Back Opener-

Having tight or overly developed pectorals and latissimus (chest and back) muscles can affect how your shoulders work in the golf swing. The tight and overly developed muscles tend to dominate the arm movement in the golf swing, restricting how well your shoulders can  turn. Which can lead to swing compensations and even injury.

1. Hold on to a door or weight rack with one hand and assume a golf stance.

2. Let your other hand hang down as if you had a golf club in your hand.

3. Swing your arm back to open up your chest and feel a stretch in your upper back. Go only as far back as you feel comfortable.

4. Return to the start position and repeat motion for 10 to 15 repetitions.  Repeat exercise on opposite side.

This exercise can be down before or after a round of golf.
