Overview
This exercise will strengthen your core muscles, which will increase your shoulder turn, help prevent back injuries, and improve your posture. Golf fitness is now considered crucial amongst all tour pros.

Golf fitness is something you can do at home, so purchase a yoga mat, unfurl it in your front room, home office, or bedroom, and start doing some golf-specific fitness workouts.

Getting golf fit is one of the quickest and easiest ways to improve your golf game. And hey, the side effects aren’t bad either: live longer, increase the quality of life, and release loads of happy endorphins into your bloodstream, gain muscle and flexibility, reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease, reduce your risk for type 2 diabetes, strengthen your bones and muscles, prevent falls (falls are the leading cause of death, injury and hospital admissions among the elderly), reduce your risk of some cancers.

Steps

Step 1: Watch
Watch the video.

Step 2: Posture
Assume your golf posture.

Step 3: Hold
Hold the kettlebell in front of your chest with your arms bent. Engage core.

Step 4: Turn
Turn back and through (imagine you have buttons on your shirt, and as you turn, the kettlebell follows the buttons). Start slow. Build up the speed of the turns.

Step 5: Keep Score
The good news is that you can simulate competition during your golf fitness drills by keeping score. Do three sets of twelve reps. Start with slow turns on set 1, and get faster with each set. Keep a score of how many sets you did.
