The Best Fitness Exercises for Junior Golfers
Summary
I often receive questions about junior golfers and golf fitness programs, which typically fall into these categories: when to start, how often to practice, and the best exercises for junior golfers. This article focuses on the most asked question: what are the best golf fitness exercises for juniors?
Understanding Golf Fitness for Juniors
Golf fitness exercises can significantly benefit junior golfers if certain principles are followed. It's crucial to develop exercises that support the physical demands of the golf swing, whether for juniors, professionals, or seniors. The exercises should target flexibility, balance, endurance, strength, and power?"all essential for a successful swing. For example, making a full shoulder turn is vital, and flexibility exercises can aid juniors in achieving this.
Key Considerations for Junior Golfers
While the fitness goals remain the same across ages, junior golfers need specific modifications due to their developing bodies. Flexibility exercises might not need much change, as juniors typically have more flexible muscles and connective tissues.
Balance and Coordination Exercises
Junior golfers might need easier balance exercises since their kinesthetic development is not as advanced. For instance, a basic airplane rotation can be adjusted with more repetitions rather than moving to an advanced version.
Strength, Endurance, and Power Training
In these areas, juniors need a careful approach to avoid overloading with external weights, which can compromise form. Start with body weight exercises and gradually introduce light external resistance like elastic tubing or medicine balls.
Progressive Development
Following a structured progression helps juniors focus on executing exercises correctly rather than lifting heavy weights prematurely. This ensures they develop the necessary strength and skills efficiently.
Conclusion
The goal for junior golfers is to develop their bodies to enhance their swing, focusing on flexibility, balance, strength, endurance, and power. However, implementing these exercises requires thoughtful adjustments.
