A proper warm-up is essential for golfers to ensure that their muscles are ready for the dynamic movements involved in the game.
For many of us, we used to be able to hop out of the car, go straight to the first tee and rip a drive down the middle of the fairway. Now by skipping a warm-up before a round of golf may mean it takes us 4 or 5 holes before you loosen up and gain your form and by that time your score may already be ruined. Here is a quick and easy pre-round warm-up exercise to help you avoid those big numbers on the scorecard.
The point of a warmup is to elevate your heart rate to get your blood flowing to warm muscles so they are loose and supple to make it is easier to swing. You can do this warm-up at your house before your round of golf, if you don’t have a long drive to the golf course or on the driving range. Don’t be embarrassed to do the routine, it couldn’t more humiliating than topping your drive off the first tee.
There are many ways to warm-up like jogging, doing jumping jacks or even taking practice swings but here's s a quick and effective warm-up routine that target golf muscles and you can do before playing or practicing:
1. Hip Swings
2. Side Hip Swings
3. Squats
4. Cross Crawl
5. Bicycle Arms
6. Core Rotators
7. Shoulder Rotators
8. Practice Swings

In my opinion, daily practice is the key to success towards any goal. Making 10 practice swings a day or putting for 5 minutes everyday will get you playing better than practicing for two or three hours once a week. First of all, it is always hard to find big chunks of time to beat balls on the ...
