What A Good Golf Workout Program Should Have

Golf workout program?with the exploding number of so-called golf experts these days it becomes very confusing and it is easy for a golfer to be misled and end up in a program that will hardly have the desired objective of improving their game.

In fact the wrong golf workout program can end up making a golfer's game deteriorate rather than improve.

It is therefore very useful to know what constitutes a good golf workout program.

A complete golf workout program will tend to have the following attributes;

a) Golf specific stretch exercises

Stretch exercises are a very important part of any genuine golf workout program. Stretches help improve the golf swing and correct many common mistakes and weaknesses in this area. They sometime help alleviate or even eliminate nagging back problems in some golfers. Many stretch exercises can be done in the comfort of the office or home.

b) Golf specific weight (strength) training

Strength training is also a key area in any good golf workout program. Strength training usually has a dramatic effect on the quality of the game of any golfer. Dumbbells are usually used and the program for building strength for golf is usually very different from a body building program because the idea here is not to build muscles.

c) Should be able to focus on certain common player weaknesses

A good golf workout program should also be able to focus on certain common weaknesses amongst most amateur golfers with the aim of helping to improve and deal with those weaknesses. This at times may involve the use of certain golf aid equipment. However it should be very clear what particular aspects of the game are being developed by what golfing aids.

A complete golf workout program should help any golfer improve their game dramatically and feel much more confident every time they set foot on the course.
