Power Training for Golf

The reason I talk so little about power training for golf is most players do not have sufficient strength and stability to make this type of exercise beneficial for their game. But, if you have 16 or more weeks of base strength and stability training these exercise could add clubhead speed and distance to your game. I’ve listed all the exercises, refer to the videos for instruction on how to perform each exercise properly.

Add 1 or 2 of these exercises to your current strength program every workout. You’ll want to perform 2-3 sets, 6-8 reps of each. Remember, power is strength plus speed so perform every rep very fast but don’t sacrifice form.

• Power Chops
• Cable Band
• Box Jumps
• Ball Slams
• Lateral Hurdles
