Golf Exercise: Upper-Back Extension with Foam Roller
If you experience back pain during or after you play golf, this is an important golf exercise for you to add to your daily routine. Additionally, this simple exercise using a foam roller can also help improve your body so you can hit the ball farther.
Most golfers who experience back pain have a lack of mobility in their upper back. This results in overcompensating by twisting too much in the lower back. The Upper-Back Extension with Foam Roller exercise helps you build mobility in your upper back to help eliminate overuse of your lower back and prevent associated pain when you play.
