Do You Play Golf? Want Longer Drives, Lower Scores and Pain Free Golf
If you’re like most boomers who play golf, you buy the best equipment, you take golf lessons, and you practice every aspect of your game trying to get better.
YET You may still have back and shoulder pain.You still don’t get the distance you want off your clubs. Sometimes you feel exhausted during your round. Something is missing, isn’t it?

What’s missing is the physical conditioning necessary to be the best golfer you can be! Physical conditioning you ask? For golf? Why?
Ask yourself these questions:
- How often do you rush to the golf course just in time to tee off?
- Do you take the time to warm up at the driving range or the putting green?
- Do you give yourself any time at all before that first swing?
If you love the game and want to play well, proper physical conditioning is absolutely necessary.
Here are the Facts:
- The golf swing is one of the most complex movements in all of sports.
- The golf swing is explosive as well as a bit unnatural.
- The golf swing requires strong, flexible muscles.
- Without this strength and flexibility, your swing will never reach its full potential!
- Without strength and flexibility, your risk of injury is high!
Unfortunately, most recreational golfers take the physical aspects of golf for granted because of the slow pace of the game. The result:1/4 to 1/3 of all golfers get injured while playing golf,with 40,000 trips to the emergency room each year.
Women suffer more upper body injuries than men, but are less prone to back injuries than men.
In general, the vast majority of injuries are from poor swing mechanics and a lack of physical preparation. And, of equal importance, most technical problems with the golf swing are closely related to a lack of proper strength, balance and flexibility.
What can you do? While your teaching pro will help you with swing mechanics… Who advises you on how to remain injury free? Do you know what exercises are absolutely necessary for golf? Do you know which exercises will help, and which will hurt? Most likely not.
But, you are not alone! The average recreational golfer does not have the expertise or knowledge to design golf specific exercise programs.
You may not have a lot of experience with strength training, or understand what muscles are used during the swing and how to make them strong and flexible. There are many fitness instructors who can help you with an exercise regimen, but very few who are expert at getting you fit for golf.
Seek out a golf fitness specialist who can teach you how to get your body in shape and keep it in the best condition for golf.
