Before Your Golf Outting…

There is one REALLY important thing to do before you go out to play a round of golf. Stretch! In golf, you can easily pull a muscle one way or another. Stretching before you play can make it practically impossible for you to pull one. Just take 5 minutes and do some leg and arm stretches.

A leg stretch that you can use is straighten your leg so there is no bend in your knee, and put your leg on a flat surface that is about as high as your waist level, or until you feel a stretch in your thighs. Do this 3 times for about 45 seconds each. An arm stretch you can use is put either of your arms in a 90° angle, and then make sure your other arm is straight, with no bend in the elbow, and place it right on the turn or the 90° you formed with your other arm. Then reach out as far as you can with your arm that is not forming the angle. After doing this for 20 seconds, do the same thing just reversing arms. These two stretches should prevent chances of pulling a muscle while you’re playing.
