According to studies, if you move your large muscles in your legs for 60 seconds, for example lunges or squats to the CardioGolf Slope, your energy level could improve by 90%. Canadian researches have found that even shorts busts of motion-as long as you are moving some large muscles in your body, like thigh muscles-switches on the gene that heighten insulin sensitivity, helping your muscle and brain cells soak up 23% more energizing glucose.
Lunges and squats are great exercises for golfers because they increase strength in the entire lower body including the glutei, quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, hips and ankles according to studies.
Lunges and squats also help you develop balance and coordination which will help you increase your clubhead speed and hit more solid shots.
One of the most important movements in golf is the squat position. You set up in a squat position at address position and you want to maintain that squat throughout the swing. To squat properly, you need leg strength. Leg strength will also help you transfer body weight onto the lead leg and to extend the hips up through impact. This move creates a tremendous amount of force to help create power. So if you want power in your swing, you should be squatting everyday.

Maximize Your Golf Performance
To maximize your golf performance, the golf athlete needs to do a variety of different exercises and workouts to build and fitness. There are seven physical performance factors that are crucial to every golf-conditioning program: posture, balance, mobility, stability, power, coordination, and endurance.
The ideal way to train for golf is using a technique called Periodization. Periodization is the process of varying a training program at regular time intervals to bring about optimal gains in physical performance. Periodization is a fancy word for seasonal training. In other words, you need to mix it up and do a variety of exercises during the year.
Your workouts should fit the season you are in. Even if you play golf all year round, you still need to vary your workouts so not to plateau. In order to build strength, you need to constantly push yourself by increasing intensity and resistance. But you also need to allow your body periods of rest to recover, so you don’t always want to be doing intense workouts.
