Core Stability and Balance
Everyone wants efficiency in their workouts. "Not enough time" is one of the most frequent excuses for not working out. Susan Hill developed the Core Stability and Balance programs to work on two important golf fitness areas at once - core strength and balance. Balance involves signals from your eyes, inner ears, and your musculoskeletal system. Because lifestyles have become more sedentary, it is all the more important to practice your balance whenever and wherever you can. Most of the movements in this program will challenge both your core strength and your balance at the same time.

Core Strength
In less than 1.5 seconds, the golfer must generate enough kinetic energy to get the club head moving at around 100mph. Strengthening and quickening how the body rotates at the waistline is key to making this happen.

Womens Golf Workout
Once a taboo idea in the sport of golf, the hot training focus among female golfers is on building muscle and flexibility to meet the demands of competition and travel throughout the season. One look at the chiseled arms of Annika Sorenstam -- the player considered the gold standard for fitness on tour -- is enough to understand that muscle is not just for football and baseball players anymore. Golf-specific programs are designed to target muscles most often used in the swing, involving both building lean muscle and increasing flexibility to incorporate that new strength.

Junior Golf Workout
Young golfers should not be aspiring weightlifters or bodybuilders, but rather strength builders. Junior golfers should begin with body weight exercises that place an emphasis on many muscle groups and movement patterns which mimic real life movements such as pushups, pull- ups, and multi directional lunges. Weights can be used, but the focus should be light weights and higher repetitions.

Strength Endurance
Not to be confused with cardiovascular endurance, strength endurance is the ability for the muscles to contract over and over in a four to five hour round of golf without the onset of significant fatigue. Many golfers find the last four to five holes of a round to be a challenge and think they will counter this issue by running on a treadmill for 45 mins to an hour several times per week. While building cardio endurance is not detrimental, it is not the key type of endurance most needed for the golf course. Those who ride in carts but still fatigue can attest to this fact.
