Move Your Body

I was cruising Men’s Health today and came upon a great series of articles they put together on golf workouts.

The series includes:

The 20 Best Workouts to Improve Your Score – specific exercises to improve power, mechanics and flexibility.

Secrets to a Better Golf Game – 6 things you can do to improve your golf game

Swing Flaws and Fixes – 4 common swing flaws and ways to fix them

As the weather starts getting nicer (we can only hope here in Chicago), it can be a great opportunity to get out there and play a round with friends and enjoy some exercise. Golf (especially if you walk the course) can be a great workout and offers you a chance to enjoy nature while breaking a sweat.

Here is a cool calculator from Self.com that allows you to input your weight, duration and whether you rode in the cart and/or carried your clubs, to figure out how many calories you burned during your golf game.
