This sequence will safely help the golfer’s body reorganize itself and restore mobility and length to all sides of the body. The exercises stretch the chest, arms, sides of the torso, legs and hips.
Golf is an amazing sport that challenges your capacity for endurance, mobility, power and skill. Golfing oscillates from strong swift bursts of whole body rotation to slow walking to periods of just standing still. Biomechanically, the golf swing can be challenging for the low back because most golfers are either right or left side dominant, which naturally means they swing their club repetitively in one direction.
Once you are done with this routine, you will have explored nearly every dimension of motion available so you can restore balance to both sides of your spine and move through the rest of your day with ease.
