Does Your Golf Game Stink? Or More Specifically, Do Your Friends and Co-Workers Out-Drive and Out-Putt You?

Well the president of FitnessForGolf.com and a Consultant to Men’s Health Magazine have put together a do it yourself golf training program that will solve that embarrassing problem.

I don’t think it comes to anyone’s surprise anymore that the fittest golfers and those that perform routine golf exercises are rising to the top of the golf game. No more apparent can this be is with the game’s greatest player, Tiger Woods.

Well, it certainly did not surprise Susan Hill, President of FitnessForGolf.com and professional golf fitness trainer. She has teamed up with Craig Ballantyne, certified strength and conditioning specialist and consultant to Men’s Health Magazine among other top fitness publications.

Susan and Craig feel there is a real need when it comes to performing at advanced levels on the golf course and golf exercises and fitness are the core of that requirement. Together, they have created an advanced step by step training plan specifically to improve your golf game called The Golf Fitness Challenge. They specifically developed the program to be adaptable for all ages.

Not only are they appearing to have a great deal of support from their customers but the experts are taking notice as well. From Men’s Health Magazine to Professional Golf Pro’s, they are understanding the same need Susan and Craig felt they could provide the solution for. Some of the main issues they wanted to resolve were:

  • Learning flexibility at any age.
  • Specifically targeting golf exercises and fitness techniques to increase your drives by anywhere up to 20 yards.
  • Golf fitness that could be achieved by both men and women golfers.

    What are good workouts For golf season?

    Posted by Golf Exercises in Golf Workout on February 26th, 2010

    I need to do a little weight training, and so far no one has told me exactly what i need to do.I really need to know what workouts work the best to cover all areas of the body, in prep for golf season.

    5-10 minutes of moderate aerobic activity until you break a light sweat – walking, biking, and jogging are good examples.

    (For best results, perform each movement slowly and without momentum)

    Leg Extension 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Leg Curl 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Leg Press 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Chest Fly 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Chest Press 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Pull Over 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Seated Row 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Lateral Raise 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Seated Press 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Abdominal Crunch 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Lower Back Extensions 1 set of 8-12 repetitions

    Rotary Torso Exercise 1 set of 8 repetitions on each side. For best results, lie on your back with legs bent in a crunch position. Move your legs side to side very slowly, touching the floor. This exercise will stretch and strengthen the lower back muscles and obliques.

    Cardio:
    Choose any activity that you enjoy which elevates your heart rate into the target zone for 20-60 minutes. Perform this activity 3-5 times per week. Running, biking, and brisk walking are good
    examples.

    Is it possible to suck a golf ball through a straw?

    Posted by Golf Exercises in Golf Stretching on February 26th, 2010

    ie. to suck so hard the straw stretches and the golf ball can pass through?

    A friend of mine says he can do it, however i do not believe him or even know if it is possible.
    He says he has a powerful suck.
    He can also blow up a hot water bottle till it bursts.

    I’ve been practicing and practicing….

    But not on golf balls with straws!

    ;-)
