I need to do a little weight training, and so far no one has told me exactly what i need to do.I really need to know what workouts work the best to cover all areas of the body, in prep for golf season.What are good workouts For golf season?5-10 minutes of moderate aerobic activity until you break a light sweat - walking, biking, and jogging are good examples.
(For best results, perform each movement slowly and without momentum)
Leg Extension 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Leg Curl 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Leg Press 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Chest Fly 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Chest Press 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Pull Over 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Seated Row 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Lateral Raise 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Seated Press 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Abdominal Crunch 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Lower Back Extensions 1 set of 8-12 repetitions
Rotary Torso Exercise 1 set of 8 repetitions on each side. For best results, lie on your back with legs bent in a crunch position. Move your legs side to side very slowly, touching the floor. This exercise will stretch and strengthen the lower back muscles and obliques.
Cardio:
Choose any activity that you enjoy which elevates your heart rate into the target zone for 20-60 minutes. Perform this activity 3-5 times per week. Running, biking, and brisk walking are good
examples.What are good workouts For golf season?Don't get carried away with weight training. Focus on stretching for increased flexibility, 20 minutes of Aerobic/Cardio 3x/week, and get a Theraband (its a rubber band like thing) and tie it to your basement pole and then around your waist. Do hard hip turns, like a golf swing going through impact, using the Theraband for resistance training. If you really must do weights, then work on your lats and also do some leg presses. Again, you don't need mass here, just some tone. The game is all about flexibility, balance, and tempo. After that, it's all in the mind.
