Move Them Muscles

Did you know that to move your body in a golf swing you use muscles throughout your whole body? Well, you probably know if you’ve woken up sore after a weekend of golfing. This is why it is so important to warm up, stretch and get those muscles moving before you swing. Even the small, precise movements necessary for putting can be assisted by a good routine.

Today’s modern golf game requires much more physically than the days of Bobby Jones. Just look at how the players on Tour look today compared to 60 years ago. A lot has changed. The Black Belt Golf system is designed to help the golfer physically handle the modern game. Even more important is the prevention of injury.

If you are a golfer that is 40 years and older, it is imperative to participate in many exercises (both stretching and strengthening of the body) to prepare your body for doing the modern golf game. It takes time, but with patience and the right training you can be successful. If you are less than 40 it also takes training to keep your body fit and able to play. If you hit lots and lots of range balls, this will eventually take its toll on your body unless you maintain and train your body to be able to handle the bounding that it takes on the whole body, especially your back muscles.

Golfers of all ages now know that golf is a very physical and hard sport on the body and the more physically in shape you are in, then the more playing and practicing your body will be able to handle and the lower the scores which will be coming your way.
