Golf is unique in that the motions of the golf swing are fundamentally simple, but not easy. The greats of our game were not physically imposing, and until recently, few of them even looked fit.

Today, the most successful professional players are keenly aware of the role of fitness in their continued success. Modern players have the same fitness goals - strength, speed, flexibility, balance and endurance - as any other professional athletes. They have added strength training and cardiovascular exercise to their daily practice routines. Because of these changes, today's golfers hit the ball farther than their predecessors and shoot lower scores than ever before. They have trained their bodies to find the fundamental positions of a good golf swing and to do so with maximum speed and efficiency.

What is golf shape?

Every golfer is seeking to reach that optimal level in their game and increase their performance. Getting in Golf Shape will allow you to achieve this, it takes the golfer to the next level in their game. Golf Fitness addresses areas of the swing and the overall game such as Core Strength, Posture, Balance and Power. By spending time on Golf Fitness and training these areas, the golfer develops the movements in golf and the golf muscles and thus attains greater performance.

What are the golf muscles? The golf muscles are basically every muscle in your body. The entire body of muscles work together to produce the high speed and awkward movements we call the golf swing. It is not enough just to have strong legs and broad shoulders; you must have all of the postural muscles working in unison with the prime movers and stabilizers to promote a healthy and powerful swing.
