Golf workouts for winter is a great approach to taking advantage
of the time you now have available to improve your golf since
you're not playing as much, if not at all. It's a way to stay
connected to your golf game when you're not able to play due to
the conditions (snow, temperatures, ice, etc.).
Have you gone into depression mode when winter hits and you
can't play golf anymore? I know this use to happen to me until I
finally moved to a year-round nice climate. This transition from
playing golf regularly to not at all can be depressing.
What do you do with all the time you now have since you're not
playing?
The answer? Golf workouts for winter! This is your "off-season"
and like most athletes they work on their body's to take their
game to the next level. This is a time where you evaluate your
game and work on your weaknesses.
A common denominator for most golfers, especially senior golfers
is "physical capabilities". This is your current level of
golf-specific strength and flexibility. It is highly unlikely
you have no physical limitations in your golf swing. 80% or more
of amateur golfers play with an injury during the season. This
would tell me there is a physical issue.
What better time than winter to do golf workouts to greatly
improve this situation. There is no excuse. You've got the time
and hopefully you've got the motivation to improve your game.
You've just got to set up a game plan in regards to your golf
workouts for winter.
The first step is to get a physical evaluation done to diagnose
your current level of fitness specific to golf. You can hire a
local golf fitness trainer or look on the web. Golf workouts are
becoming so popular you can't miss finding out information about
them.
Once you've gotten your golf fitness evaluation, assess the
areas that need the most work and spend the majority of your
time on those areas. Most likely this would be flexibility and
core strength. These are two very common areas that are lacking
and can make the most impact on your golf improvement.
You will be shocked at your progress if you stick with it
through the entire winter. The first time you step on the range,
you'll feel like a different golfer. It will be like an
"out-of-body" experience. You'll soon realize this is what
you've been missing all along.
So when you put those clubs up for the winter and go into
depression mode...remember this article and start your golf
workouts for winter.
