As most of my regular readers already know, I post-golf exercises regularly.  This is not a random process but a carefully chosen group of exercises that need to be rotated regularly.  Doing the same exercises repeatedly leads to boredom, and the muscles engaged in the routine get stale!  By regularly changing your workout routine, more and more golf muscles get a workout, and you will become a more rounded player because of it.  Of course, your workout sessions also become more enjoyable as you challenge different muscle groups.

Peter Morrice of  Golf Digest has chosen 6 that he feels important and easy to do at home!  Enjoy!

1. OVERHEAD SPLIT-SQUAT

Start in a kneeling split stance holding a club or weighted bar overhead. Lift and lower yourself, keeping the club extended—trains: lower-body strength and stability, mid-back extension.

 

2. LOWER-BODY ROTATIONS

Stand at address holding a stability ball. Keeping your upper body still, rotate your lower body both ways—trains: independent movement of the torso; lower-body action on the downswing.

3. LATERAL SQUAT & TRUNK ROTATION

Stand wide, and hold a club across your shoulders. Shift to one side so your glutes feel stacked behind the bent leg. The opposite leg straightens, foot down. Rotate over the bent leg. Repeat the other way—trains: rotation and lateral motion in the downswing.
