Golf Fitness 101: How to improve balance and mobility for golf

Dr. Jeremy James takes you through a simple, follow-along golf exercise routine that you can do from home without any gym equipment. Begin your path to feeling great and playing your best!

A few weeks ago, we shared the first in our new “Quaran-Tone” series of at-home golf workout videos, geared toward those of us looking for ways to improve our golf games while we’re spending more time at home. While our first Quaran-Tone video featured a full-body, 30-minute golf workout, this week’s video focuses specifically on two areas that are among the most important when it comes to golf fitness: balance and mobility.

As we consistently mention in the majority of our golf exercises, working on improving your mobility in your body will have a direct impact on your ability to perform as a golfer. The golf swing requires coordination of many body parts, including your hips, shoulders, and upper back—and by developing mobility in each of those areas, you’ll begin to notice improved flexibility and overall range of motion throughout your swing. And by adding balance into that equation, you’ll be able to combine that increased range of motion with increased stability to begin generating more clubhead speed and more power.

Best of all… you can work on balance and mobility for golf from your home without any gym equipment. So, clear out some space in your family room or basement and follow along as Dr. Jeremy James walks you through a few simple exercises that can make a big-time impact on your game.
