Aspects of Golf Fitness

The golfer must focus on golf-specific muscular strength, stability and balance, postural control and the development of power.

A golfer requires the following training:

  • Aerobic activity to warm up the body and maintain cardiovascular conditioning
  • Flexibility training
  • Strength training – upper body, lower body and trunk
  • Balance training
  • Stabilization training (including muscle memory and power training).

The training regime varies depending on certain factors, such as time of week, time of season, practice time available, volume versus intensity, and so on.
