 How A Golf Trainer Can Take Your Game To The Next Level
This is the next best thing to having a golf trainer in person. Having a golf trainer in your corner to give you guidance, motivation and ongoing, cutting-edge golf fitness information will put you leaps and bounds above your playing partners and competitors. The more experienced the golf trainer, the more they will charge. The average, 'qualified' golf fitness expert will charge anywhere from a low of $40 per session to a high of over $250. Most of you will not have the the luxury to have a golf trainer one time, let alone 3 to 5 times a week, every week.

Play Better Longer - Peak Performance For Golf!
Performing exercises that mimic the golf swing prior to establishing a strong foundation and good muscle balance will only strengthen the imbalance and lead to further inconsistency and greater chance of injury. The golf swing is a dynamic movement that demands precise coordination of muscle contraction and relaxation, postural stability, strength, balance and body awareness. A sound golf fitness program should be built on the foundation of postural stability, muscle balance, and efficient movement. Many golf fitness programs put the cart before the horse by focusing on strength without addressing stability. As well as a strong foundation in exercise science a good golf fitness trainer or program should have a good understanding of biomechanics as they relate to the golf swing.

A Good Swing Starts with a Strong Base of Support
Under the best of circumstances our spines were not designed to swing a golf club. To make matters worse most golfers spending hours at the driving range reinforcing and strengthening this dysfunctional pattern. Spinal extensor muscles don't have the size or strength to do this, hence the tremendous incidence of over use injury and lower back pain among golfers. Aside from the already mentioned hip flexors and lumbar extensors other areas commonly tight among golfers include the muscles of the hamstrings, neck, scapular elevators (upper trapezius and levator scapulae) and shoulder internal rotators. A qualified strength and conditioning or golf fitness professional can provide you with a postural and biomechanical analysis that can provide a more detailed picture of your specific areas of need.
