How A Golf Fitness Book Can Transform

Your Game





A golf fitness book that is written to give you ready-made golf fitness programs,

exercises, step-by-step instructions and illustrations can quickly transform your golf

game.



There are so many so-called golf fitness books on the market; but when you open them up

you see dozens of pictures of golf models sitting on exercise machines in the gym.



This is NOT a golf fitness book, this is a book pertaining to general fitness, but with the

title revised to catch the golfers eye. In my mind, this is a little deceptive and can

frustrate the consumer.



When I was doing research for my golf fitness book (manual) I was extremely

disappointed. Having been a certified fitness professional for over 20 years and

specifically working with golfers the last 10 years I was expecting some good bodys of

knowledge on the subject.



I was extremely let down and even felt like I wasted my money getting them. This

motivated me to put together my golf fitness book (manual) so that a golfer of any age or

fitness level could apply it immediately.



What are the components of a complete golf fitness book?



The golf fitness book should cover strength specific to golf, flexibility, aerobic

conditioning (endurance) and nutrition.



These components should be directed at a golfer, not a person looking to build or tone

muscles or just improve their physical fitness.



It should also discuss starting points for golfers at every age and fitness level. Have a

golf fitness evaluation right in the book to determine your current fitness level and

ultimately your starting point.



That way you are sure what you are doing is the right thing that will help your game not

hurt it.



I think thats the biggest concern for any golfer is not knowing where to start and making

sure whatever he or she does will be right for them.



Secondly the golf fitness book should be able to discuss the direct benefits of any

exercise to their golf swing. Its motivating to ready why you would do a certain exercise

if you can see how it will benefit your game.



And lastly, a golf fitness book should have progressive golf fitness exercises and

complete programs to take you to the next level. Ive seen so many books that have

general exercises (not golf-specific) that have no sense of format or progression. This

would leave your frustrated and not knowing where to start or progress.



So next time you go to a bookstore or get online and do a search for golf fitness book,

make sure to thoroughly review the explanation and chapters to reassure you are doing

the right thing.



You can quickly transform your game with the right golf fitness book.
