KarenGolf Fitness, Misc

To create power and speed in your golf swing, it is important to stretch and strengthen your core muscles or trunk. Your core consists of muscles in your abdominal, back, hips and chest. A strong, flexible core allows you to turn your trunk for a complete range of motion.

Before starting any training program, consult your doctor.

Stop if you feel any pain or discomfort.

Always warm-up before you stretch or exercise.

Strength Exercise-(Use light weights and perform each exercise for 8-12 repetitions for 2 to 3 sets.)

Wood Chops

Stand erect with feet shoulder width apart. Hold a medicine ball or a small weight above your right

shoulder. Slowly make a downwards chopping motion across your body to your left hip and

then back up to shoulder. Perform 8-12 repetitions and then repeat exercise on the other side of body.
