EXERCISES TO GET IN GOLF SHAPE FOR THE NEW YEAR

With the holidays upon us, most of us are in "sit around and eat" mode from a long, stationary year – not an ideal way to start the golf season. Luckily, 2021 is right around the corner to help get things going in the other direction. Promises get a bad rap for being hard to keep when they're made on New Year's Day, but this year is shaping up to be a banner year for resolutions. Especially ones related to your golf game.

“It’s more important than ever after this whole year of a sedentary lifestyle,” says Dalton Gillilan, Fitness Director at Greystone Golf & Country Club. “Not only does [that life- style] have inherent health risks, but it also wreaks havoc on the body as far as movement goes. Your swing quality is probably going to go down if you’ve been affected at all by the COVID-19 situation.” We’re all hoping to unwrap a healthy swing when golf resumes this spring, but that swing isn’t just waiting underneath the holiday tree. A proper golf swing starts with good physical fitness, and, according to Gillilan, you need to focus on both during this short offseason period.
