Senior golfers in a group have more fun and play more rounds of golf than the average golfer. Having raised their families and retired from their professions, senior golfers have more time than their younger counterparts. For that reason senior golfers are considered to be the “bread-and-butter” of the local golf courses around the country.
The golf swing includes bending over and then twisting, which is one the worst moves people can make, according to physical therapists. If the knees are bent and the back is straight it will keep pressure off the discs. You can also tighten the stomach muscles to help give the back support during the golf swing. It is a good idea for all golfers, especially senior golfers to do some warm-up exercises before hitting the tee.
Many senior golfers feel as though they have experience a loss of flexibility as they age. This is probably true our bodies will lose flexibility as it ages, but the strength of the body will decline just a rapidly as the flexibility.
There are many other exercises in the Yoga regime designed to give you flexibility on and off the golf course. You might want to check into these exercises. They can be performed in your own home, unless you prefer the structure a personal trainer or group with a trainer type setting. The only equipment required to perform these exercises is a yoga mat.
