WARM UP & COOL DOWN EXERCISES

You should always warm up before starting your game of golf and cool down afterwards. The warm up should consist of mainly stretches and will help prevent potential injuries during your game and also prepare your body for the movements and stresses put on your muscles and body during your game of golf.

Your muscles tighten during a round of golf and a build-up of lactic acid is likely. If this isn't counteracted injuries may result so it is vital that you do cool down stretches after a round of golf.

The ChiroFit Program provides you with 12 simple warm up and cool down stretches and advice that will help you stay injury free and playing at your best. These stretches can be done at the golf course directly before and after your game of golf.
