Strengthening For Golf
This is wishful thinking, but I am already looking forward to the golf season. This is the time to strength train so those long par 4's dont seem too long in a few months! Also, greater strength makes it easier to get out of that long, thick rough (not that you are ever in there anyways).
Here are a few movements that you can apply to golf strengthening:
-Birddog x 15 reps each side (better mobility + better core stabilization through impact)
-Medicine Ball Chops x 15 reps each side (better mobility + better turn through impact)
-Dumbbell Shoulder Press x 15 reps (more strength through impact)
-Planks x 60 seconds (better core stabilization throughout the swing)
-Barbell Wrist Curls (forearm strength plays a big factor in getting the ball out of the heavy rough)
Work on these movements for the next few months and add some distance to your tee shot!
