Are
You Too Old For Golf Fitness Workouts |
by:

Many
a senior golfer would not resist the temptation
to skip golf fitness workouts, using their
age as an excuse. And at first glance age
would seem to be a genuine excuse to avoid
golf fitness workouts.
After all golf fitness workouts, as most
people seem to believe, are supposed to
be very strenuous programs where even dumb
bells are used.
So how do you tell that you are too old
for golf fitness workouts?
The answer to that question is really simple.
If you are too old to play golf then you
are probably too old for golf fitness workouts.
I regularly work with 80 year old golfers
who comfortably go through golf fitness
workouts, dumb bells and all. It is also
probably appropriate to add here at this
juncture that I also regularly work with
youngsters barely in their teens.
Both groups of persons are able to dramatically
improve on their game with the help of golf
fitness workouts.
Golf fitness workouts are not any more rigorous
and punishing than the game of golf is.
Remember that the work outs are golf specific,
meaning that they are specifically designed
to help strengthen and condition the very
muscles used in golf.
It is definitely not a boxing or body building
fitness workout. Workouts for those sports
reflect the rigorous and physically demanding
aspects of those sports. In the very same
way that golf fitness workouts reflect the
requirements of the game of golf.
The dumbbells are usually used for strength
training because this is the most efficient
equipment anywhere for building strength
quickly hence their inclusion in the best
golf fitness workout routines.
The idea is never to lift heavy weights
over long periods of time. Rather the objective
to condition and strengthen golf muscles
using lighter weights lifted over very short
periods of time.
If you are not too old or too young for
golf, golf fitness workouts are for you.
