For Your In-Home Program

Golf fitness instrumentation
can be a variety of pieces; but what truly is golf fitness equipment?
You’d be astonied to find out it is not expensive; and is not necessarily in a gym or health club either.
Yes…there are golf “machines” for stretching and strength building that are well over one thousand dollars, but are by all odds not needed.
Once
you think of the golf swing, it’s a dynamic movement completed in space with your ‘whole’ body. So any kind of training or golf fitness instrumentation
should be able to accommodate this.
I've designed all my programs, dvds and books to utilize the below instrumentation
for one reason. Convenience. Which wish save you time to do what you actually want to do. Play golf!
For starters, a pair of hand weights (dumbbells) are inexpensive, portable and can be used for dozens of golf-specific exercises. They don’t have to be heavy or cumbersome. You’d be astonied what a 5 to 8 pound pair of dumbbells can accomplish with the right golf exercises.
Next on the list of golf fitness instrumentation
is tubing. You may have seen it in articles, on the television or in a catalog. Exercise conduit
is extremely portable, really affordable and as well can be used to mimic many a phases of the golf swing, but with resistance.
I in person
use exercise conduit
in all of my programs, with all of my personal clients and in my own golf workouts. It can give you one euphemism
of a effort if you have the right resistance. These bands move in varied
tensions from light to extra heavy.
Another piece of golf fitness instrumentation
is a stability ball. It’s the big ‘beach ball’ looking thing that is used in offices to sit on, in many a exercise classes, at most health clubs and all of the physical medical aid
clinics.
Why? Because once more it’s portable, affordable and really versatile. Doing golf exercises on the ball incorporate core stabilization, balance and stability. All important factors in a automatically
sound golf swing.
And the last piece of golf fitness instrumentation
is a weighted medicine ball is the . You power remember them from some decades ago as the big animal skin
balls that the old fitness fanatics used to improve strength and power.
Well now they’re back! They are used in every sport-specific strength program in existence. You can do so many a sport-like movements with them and they weigh as more as 20 pounds, so you can imagine the benefit from a power standpoint.
I have a couple of my ‘bread-and-butter’ exercises I use in all my programs that incorporate the weighted medicine ball and they are really effective.
So there you have it! Three or four pieces of affordable and portable golf fitness equipment.
