Power Golf The Easy Way

Power golf is a game very few golfers can play.  What I mean by that is卲ower golf takes a certain level of golf specific strength and flexibility.  There are requirements that have to be in place to maximize your power and golf driving distance.

It抯 not as easy as getting the 憀atest-greatest?driver at $500.  It抯 not buying Titleist ProV1抯 at $45 a case.  It抯 not even taking more lessons (although swing mechanics are very important). 

The answer is improved strength and flexibility from a rotational standpoint卛n your core卼o play a power golf game. 

The golf swing is a turn (rotate back) and a turn (rotate through).  If there are limitations that don抰 allow you to rotate back fully and store that torque (energy), then you will never play a power golf game.  I hate to sound harsh, but it抯 the truth卲lain-and-simple. 

Do you currently feel like you can make a full backswing with max torque in your core area?  I mean a 90+ degree shoulder turn with nothing more than a 45 degree hip turn卆nd with both heels on the ground? 

If you can抰卍o you think hitting more balls is the answer?  Or taking more lessons?  I hope not!  It抯 about getting off the course and doing some simple golf exercises and stretches that won抰 even take 20 minutes to do卆 couple times a week. 

No gym!  No fancy equipment!  Just simple exercises done in your home with minimal equipment.  You don抰 have to get overwhelmed thinking it抯 a gut-busting, sweaty workout.   

Although厀hen you get a taste of what being 慺it?feels like卛t抯 almost addicting.  It抯 like the 憆unners high?  You start looking a little better.  Having more energy.  Experiencing less aches and pains.  And best of all!  You抮e killing the ball long and straight!

Every exercise you do to create a power golf game should be focused on core rotational exercises.  It抯 easy!  Get in your golf posture and grab a single dumbbell or bag of sugar.  Something that weighs about 5 pounds.  Now make partial swings卻taying in your posture for 20-30 swings.  There抯 one simple and easy-to-implement rotational exercise. 

I抣l bet you can handle that one. 

How bad do you want to play 損ower golf??nbsp; How bad do you want to be the 憀ast golfer?to hit your second shot into the green?  How bad do you want all your golfing buddies to be in the proshop after the round talking about one of your LONG drives? 

Start implementing exercises like the above example and you抮e one step closer to playing power golf!
