Golf may be one of the world's most popular sports, but it is certainly not a quick one, and finding extra time for gym workouts can be a real challenge. Isometric Exercises for Golf offers a brilliantly simple solution that fits seamlessly into the game you already love.
By performing a series of easy 7-second isometric exercises, you can turn every round of golf or practice session into a powerful strength workout. Complete just one exercise at each hole, and by the end of an 18-hole round, you will have finished a highly effective total-body training session-without setting foot in a gym.
Your golf club itself becomes a perfect Improvised Isometric Exercise Device (IIED), meaning your personal, go-anywhere multi-gym is already in your hands. Clear, easy-to-follow illustrations with directional arrows show exactly how and where to apply force, making the exercises simple to learn and safe to perform. Golf professionals and coaches will also find this an invaluable resource for integrating strength work directly into lessons and practice routines.
The book is thoughtfully divided into two practical sections. Part One focuses on individual isometric exercises that can be performed on the course, outdoors, or at home. Part Two introduces a range of partnered exercises, ideal for training with a golf buddy and adding variety and motivation to your sessions.
While many of the movements are similar to those found in the Nordic Walking and Trekking Pole books, Isometric Exercises for Golf - Book One also includes specialised exercises specifically designed to increase the power of your golf swing.
Smart, time-efficient, and perfectly tailored to the sport, this book allows you to improve strength, stability, and swing power-one hole at a time.
An interesting and crucial footnote is that the National Health Service (NHS) Innovation Team in Greater Manchester, England, has successfully trialled and deployed the Workout at Work system for employees. The authors, Brian Sterling-Vete and Helen Renée Wuorio, worked closely with the NHS Research and Innovation Team to create a practical and effective system suitable for virtually anyone in any job.
