Today’s Daily Dose of Cardiogolf 

Hip Extensions on a Ball

Hip strength and flexibility are important in golf because much of the power comes from this area.  Your hips initiate the movement on the downswing to not only create power but to sequence your swing correctly.

Hip Extensions on a Ball train the hamstrings, glutes and back muscles in the same motion that is used in the golf swing.
