Strength Training Frequency for Weekend Warrior Golfers
How many days a week should a weekend warrior golfer strength train to improve their endurance, drive the ball further, and limited overuse injuries.
Greetings, golfers! You're likely eager to enhance your golf game and increase your driving distance. In our previous posts, we've covered essential muscle groups and provided strength training exercises. Now, we'll address a common question: How often should weekend warrior golfers engage in strength training to see improvements in their drives? Our 4OUR Golf Fitness Training Program has the answers.
Strength Training Frequency for Golfers:
For weekend warriors looking to see tangible improvements in their golf game, we recommend the following strength training frequency:
2-3 Times Per Week: Dedicate 2-3 days per week to focused strength training sessions. Ensure you target the key muscle groups discussed in our earlier posts.
Example Schedule:
Monday: Core and leg exercises
Wednesday: Back and shoulder exercises
Friday: Forearm and grip strength training
Rest and Recovery: Allow at least 48 hours of rest between strength training sessions for the same muscle group. This allows your muscles to recover and grow stronger.
Warm-Up and Stretching: Prior to each session, warm up with light cardio and dynamic stretches. Afterward, engage in static stretching to improve flexibility and reduce the risk of injury.
By following this strength training frequency, weekend warrior golfers can expect to see improvements in their drives within a few weeks. Increased muscle strength and better swing mechanics will translate to longer, more accurate shots on the golf course. Our 4OUR Golf Fitness Training Program provides a structured approach to ensure you achieve your golfing goals.
