NEW YEAR - GET FIT FOR GOLF

 After the excess of the holiday season the New Year is a great time to start a fresh! Plan you Golf Holidays (with us of  course!) and get back on the course to blow away the holiday cob webs!

Here are a few exercises to help you with your golf for 2013.


This exercise targets the muscles in your chest which are important for generating power during the swing.

Rating: Moderate-hard This exercise targets the muscles in your chest which are important for generating power during the swing. Instructions:

• Place your hands on the ball, shoulder width apart. Also have your feet shoulder width apart.
• Place the ball against a wall.
• Slowly lower your chest towards the ball by bending your elbows and then push off the ball by straightening your elbows.
• Repeat 12 times.

Ensure:

• You keep your body straight i.e. don’t let your back sag. Also, don’t let your bottom or your shoulder blades stick out!

Alternative:

• You can make the exercise harder by taking the ball away from the wall.
• If you experience wrist pain, try making a fist with your hand rather than having your wrist in the extended position shown in the picture.
