6-Week Golf Strength Training Program: For muscle groups that are crucial for increasing your driving distance in golf Part 2

Welcome to your 6-week golf strength training program designed to enhance the crucial muscle groups discussed in our first blog post. This program, integrated with our 4OUR Golf Fitness Training, will help you increase your driving distance and overall performance on the golf course. Before we delve into the program, let's begin with a warm-up routine of dynamic stretches to prepare your body for strength training.

Warm-Up Routine (Perform before each workout):

Warm-up exercises are essential to increase blood flow, improve flexibility, and reduce the risk of injury. Perform these dynamic stretches for 5-10 minutes before starting your strength training session.

1. Arm Circles: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Extend your arms straight out to the sides and make small circles forward for 30 seconds, then reverse the direction for another 30 seconds.

2. Leg Swings: Stand near a wall or support. Swing one leg forward and backward, allowing it to gently swing to its maximum range of motion. Repeat for 20 swings on each leg.

3. Torso Twists: Stand with your feet hip-width apart. Hold your arms out in front of you, palms facing down. Rotate your upper body from side to side, allowing your arms to follow. Perform 20 twists on each side.

4. Hip Circles: Place your hands on your hips and make circular motions with your hips, rotating both clockwise and counterclockwise for 30 seconds each.

Now, let's move on to the 6-week strength training program. You will perform this program 2-3 times per week, as discussed in Blog Post 3.
