2012...Time to get on the ball for Golf Fitness!

Nothing like St. Louis weather to kill a golf game.  Theres been a couple days worthy of play.  I didn't see anyone at Kapalua...so I guess we all have some room for improvement in our own games!

Now is a great time to strart a golf fitness program focused on stretching and strength training.  Without basic flexibility and strength, your joints...specially the knees, hips, low back and shoulders will pay the price later.
You should be doing at least 3 major moves to get your body ready.
Try these moves for basic off season training...
1. Body Weight Squats.
2. Torso Rotations.
3. Shoulder Circles.

If you are not familiar with these moves give me a call and I can help explain or email pictures.  If you have had any knee, hip, back or shoulder pain in the past your are in extra need of the basic motions to help you avoid injury.

Let me know if you'd like to go over the basics and get back on to a routine.
Have a great GOLF year in 2012!
