Golf Specific Exercise

Golf specific exercises are the exercises that mimic your swing. i.e. exercises that work your torso in a golf swing. They could be crunches, side bends, or twisting exercises.

Each exercise must engage the same muscle action or contraction used in your golf swing. The backswing would be more of a stretching exercise, where the downswing is a power contraction exercise.

In golf specific exercise, the key to success is to duplicate the golf swing as closely as possible. For example, a twisting of the torso as in your golf swing with a weighted club, would be very effective in building up your golf swing.
