A specific weight training program for golfers

As promised, I want to introduce you to my favorite training regimen. This is a great workout for golfers. It combines strength training with conditioning and flexibility. And it is also one that you can do just about anywhere. Now, before you start any workout program, you should always check with your doctor. This is a great routine, but make sure that your doctor says that you are ready for it.





The Golf Nut’s favorite personal workout routine is know as the “Power 90” workout. You can find out all the details at www.beachbody.com. Now bear in mind that I am not a paid spokesperson for this product. I just use it and I like it. One of the things that I like in particular about it is that it stresses stretching and overall fitness as a part of the routine. This is something that I think is important for golfers to consider in a routine.
This exercise program, in my opinion, is one that isn’t just good to help keep you in shape for golf, but is one that you can use for a lifetime of fitness. If you stay with it consistently, it will keep you in shape for a lifetime.
The program makes use of a lot of normal calistenics, which makes it easy to do at home, on the road, just about anywhere. This is important to me because it makes it easier to stay consistent with it. A program that requires a ton of free weights or health club level equipment is not only unaffordable for some, but means that I have to get in the car, drive 20-40 minutes, etc, etc.
And don’t think that just because it doesn’t use a lot of heavy free weights that it’s a sissy workout. This workout will really get you in shape and keep you there. It has two levels and you will not want to start with Level 2. Start with Level 1 and go from there.
Also, to really makes sure that you don’t mess up your golf swing, make sure that you do the stretching that is part of this workout. Weight training without stretching makes you too stiff and tight in my opinion.
Here’s to good golf and fitness!

  2. What absolute &*!*..you dont get paid to endorse the product yet you don’t give any advice or tips for weight training yourself!

    Typical american sellout…all you care about is the money you can make by advertising/promoting others people’s crap.

  3. Ted,

    Sorry you feel that way. I’m not a weight training expert. But if you look at my other post on weight training, I talk about the benefits for golfers.

    This post was designed to recommend a program for golfers that I use and that I know works.

    And you are right, I don’t get paid to talk about this program. I am just trying to pass on useful information.
