The days of believing lifting weights will slow down your golf swing or upset your rhythm are finally over. The truth is strength training can be beneficial for every aspect of your game and also help to improve your endurance from the first tee to the 18th. As a matter of fact, strength training contributes to stamina. Here are some solutions to your golf game.
* Add more distance- Strengthening the trapezius and latissimus dorsi will increase club head speed and add initial yards onto your drive.
* Lose the shanks- Balance training with added resistance will ensure an even strike so the club doesn't lead or fall behind the ball at the point of impact causing a shift in direction
* Command the sand- Power generated from the legs and core will pull the ball out of a stubborn situation so you don't have to compensate with your arms or injure your wrist.
*Add Stabilization Exercises- Adding exercises that incorporates more of your trunk muscles (a.k.a. core), will help you with consistency and controlling the club better.
*Change it up- One of the most common mistakes golfers make in golf conditioning is doing the same exercises over and over again. You must have a progressive and periodized program (just like the pros).
