How to Gain Optimum Golf Performance

The less flexibility you have, the worse your golf game will be. It's that simple. Limited range of motion and the lack of flexibility are responsible for keeping the games of many players from ever reaching their full potential.

There are no special equipment breakthroughs, no magical flying golf balls, no expensive golf lessons, no miracle supplement drink, and no 'electrically charged' bracelets that will ever take the place of what a proper golf flexibility program can do for your game. Simply siad, the further and easier your body can turn, the better and more powerful your swing will be.

Bring More Power to Your Game by Focusing On the Ultimate Piece of Eqauipment - Your Body

By doing Pilates, you can make corrections to your body - strenghten the core, increase flexibility, build stability in the pelvis and shoulder girdles, balance both sides of the body, which will allow you to hit the ball farther, straighter and more accurately.

Ben Hogan said in The Five Lessons, "Every golfer, at the bottom of their heart, wants to play the game relatively well." Pilates will help you achieve this goal, Pilates is a perfect exercise for the golfer, young and old, male or female, low or high handicap and professional to beginner. Pilates is about focus, and so is golf. Pilates is about movement from the center of the body, using all of the muscles of the body, and so is golf. Pilates allows golfers to move differently!

Joseph Pilates made the point that we should be in control of our muscles and bodies through our mind: not have the muscles control us. Pilates will teach you how to gain this mind and body control and:

* Produce lower scores with a healthy body
* Gain core strength to prodcue power and protect the spine
* Reeducate the body to coordinate use of the muscles, joints, and breath
* Find relief from pain which causes many swing faults
* Decrease the frequency of injury and pain
* Improve posture and spine angle
