Train like the Professionals- Golden Ocala

WRITTEN BY JEFFREY T SPAETH, L.M.T, C.P.T.

LPGA athletes are professional lady golfers striving to be number one by competing all around the world against the best of the best. To be number one in this sport you must begin with a strict workout regimen, along with watching what you eat. These professional golfers have this down to a science. Here are some tips on how you can improve your golf game and train like the professionals.

Golf Exercises

Some examples of workouts commonly seen in a professional golfers routine are body weight exercises using weighted balls and large exercise balls. They use these to combine balance, strength training and stretching. The golf swing is an unnatural body movement which takes extreme concentration to execute correctly. This is why very few can make a living at it. The lower lumbar area of the back takes the most abuse, this is why it is very important to keep the lower back stretched and limber.
