Golf Excercise - New Body - New Year
Golf exercise is mainstream thanks to Tiger, Annika, Larry Nelson and all the top tournament golfers who are doing it and seeing fantastic results from it.
You are a “golfing athlete!� And ALL athletes work on their “machines�.
Why wouldn't you?
Participating in a golf exercise program that works on all your personal, physical limitations is the approach you need to take.
Every golfer has different physical needs, and they should be at the top of your golf exercise program list.
This is the year you're going to make it happen! 2006 will be your year! No more excuses. No more reasons not to do it. Just one thing on your mind.
Playing BETTER golf and feeling like you did years ago.
The “use-it-or-lose� phrase is SO true. The human body declines rapidly in both strength and flexibility if you don't keep up with it.
Don't you feel like you've lost these two key components for optimal golf performance? It's a natural occurrence, but you can do something about it!
It's called “golf exercise�.
Exercise that's specific to the demands the golf swing puts on your body…and there are many.
Just getting in your golf posture takes a higher level of both strength and flexibility in your hamstrings. Just getting in your posture! Now how about making a decent swing? It's not going to happen if your body is broken.
I don't like to sugar-coat things. I like to wake people up and get them going asap! That's the only way.
I don't want to say I'm not empathetic, but “crap-or-get-off-the pot�.
A fitter body and better game aren't going to happen on their own. You've got to start your golf exercise program right now.

Weight Training for Golfers
Weight training for golfers may sound exhausting to you and even an oxymoron, but I can tell you it's not a secret anymore. Weight training for golfers is a must if you want to achieve your highest level of golf performance.
You don't need to fear it! Embrace it and realize you will not only play your best golf…you will feel better than you have in years! I receive dozens of emails everyday from golfers who were skeptical, but gave it a shot and their results are amazing!
Worst case scenario for some of them is better health. The time you spend working on your golf swing technique is critical to your success. Some of these golfers embarked on one of my weight training for golfers programs and didn't put any time on the range.
The result for just a small percent of them was more energy, less aches and pains, and a dramatic drop in bodyweight. Needless to say they were still more than thrilled they did it.
But for the majority of these golfers I hear from have results that have evened amazed me. Increases of up to 50 yards on their drives! Slashing their handicaps by up to 8 strokes! And even winning their Club Championships!
These are very exciting emails to receive…and it's proof that weight training for golfers DOES work! I can say with every fiber in my body, that if you improve your body's ability to move from both a strength and flexibility standpoint, it is virtually impossible to not see improvement in your golf swing and game.
Don't you think if you could make just a little bigger backswing you would hit it further? Or, if your lower back muscles were a tad bit stronger, you wouldn't walk off the course with an aching back? I know you'll agree with me.
