Tee Up Your Strength: Resistance Training for Golf

The CardioGolf® Standing Golf-Fitness Workout is designed to be gentle on the joints primarily due to its low-impact nature and emphasis on controlled movements.
Here's how it achieves this:
Standing Position: Unlike some traditional workout routines that involve high-impact activities like running or jumping, the CardioGolf workout is primarily done in a standing position. This reduces the strain on the joints, particularly the knees and ankles, which can be aggravated by activities involving repetitive impact with the ground.
Controlled Movements: The exercises in the CardioGolf workout focus on controlled, fluid movements rather than rapid, jerky motions. This helps to minimize stress on the joints by ensuring that movements are smooth and controlled throughout the entire range of motion.
Low-Resistance Exercises: While the CardioGolf workout aims to improve strength and flexibility, it typically involves low-resistance exercises. This means that the muscles are engaged without placing excessive strain on the joints. Resistance can be added gradually as strength improves, but the emphasis is on maintaining proper form and minimizing joint stress.
Range of Motion: The exercises in the CardioGolf workout often incorporate movements that promote flexibility and mobility in the joints. This can help to reduce stiffness and improve joint health over time. By moving the joints through their full range of motion in a controlled manner, participants can improve flexibility without placing undue stress on the joints.
Focus on Core Strength: Core strength is essential for stability and balance, both of which are crucial for protecting the joints during physical activity. The CardioGol®f workout often includes exercises that target the core muscles, such as abdominal and back muscles. A strong core can help to reduce the strain on other joints by providing better support and stability during movement.
Overall, the CardioGolf® Standing Golf-Fitness Workout aims to provide a gentle yet effective way to improve fitness and mobility for golfers while minimizing stress on the joints. By emphasizing controlled movements, low-impact exercises, and core strength, it offers a safe and accessible option for individuals looking to stay active and improve their golf game without exacerbating joint issues.
