Your ‘No Equipment Required’ Pre-Round Warmup Routine

Karen Palacios-Jansen from CardioGolf.com shares her quick and easy pre-round exercises targeting golf-specific muscles to help you avoid those big numbers on the scorecard.

For many of us, we used to be able to hop out of the car, go straight to the first tee and rip a drive down the middle of the fairway. Now by skipping a warmup before a round of golf may mean it takes us 4 or 5 holes before you loosen up and gain your form and by that time your score may already be ruined. Here is a quick and easy pre-round warmup routine to help you avoid those big numbers on the scorecard.

The point of a warmup is to elevate your heart rate to get blood flowing to warm muscles so they are loose and supple, so it is easier to swing. You can do this warmup at your house before your round of golf, if you don’t have a long drive to the golf course or on the driving range and don’t be embarrassed to do the routine, it couldn’t more humiliating than topping your drive off the first tee.

There are many ways to warmup like jogging, doing jumping jacks or even taking practice swings. I have chosen exercises that target golf-specific muscles.
