Golf Biomechanic

Why condition for golf?

Amateur golfers achieve approximately 90% of their peak muscle activity when driving a golf ball. This is the same lifting intensity as picking up a weight that can only be lifted four times before total fatigue. Yet golfers fail to consider that they strike the ball an average of 30 to 40 times a game with comparable intensity. This level of exertion and muscle activation equates golf with such sports as football, hockey and martial arts. The difference is that other athletes outside of golf include conditioning as an integral part of their preparation for such physical demands
