Golf combines both- mental strength and physical aptitude. To us, at TSG; it’s more than striking the ball. A lot goes into building a great player. And to master this game , a regular fitness regimen is required. Today, in this blog, let’s start with some easy yet powerful fitness advice by our golf expert that will help you improve and ensure that every swing you take feels good.
- Keep your workload ratio consistent in practice: Spikes in workload lead to injury. You need to know that you cannot go out there and hit 300 balls on one day and 100 the next. Similarly, you cannot go for a tournament or a break and expect to continue the fitness routine you were following before. You have to learn to track your workload not only in your game during practice and tournament play, but also in your fitness regimen. Speak to your team for the right calculations.
- Consistency in Practice cannot be emphasized enough: Everything in life comes with a price. Whether it is studying or sports, all you need is to be true to your art. Particularly, when we say golf, practicing ‘consistency’ is a must; it’s more than good advice. We, at TSG believe that frequent, deliberate practice sessions help to develop muscle memory and hone the motions necessary for your swing. Hence, we ensure that you make time to practice your long shots, focus on your short game, and never undervalue the importance of repetition.
- Awaken your body: Exercise before the game: Get your body ready for the demands of the golf course with focused pre-game exercises. Stretch your muscles, move your joints, and increase your range of motion. A well-rested body is less prone to injury and more responsive, so you’ll be prepared to take on the challenges that come with playing for several hours over 4-5 days.
- Hydration: Your body and mind will thank you for it: It’s critical to keep hydrated during the game because of its demanding physical and mental requirements. Throughout the game, make sure that you consume enough water and take brief rest. Fatigue brought on by dehydration might impair concentration and performance on the course.
- Hygiene: for you and your clubs is imperative: Hygiene is more than manners on the golf course; it’s about performance optimization. Clean grips and clubs, are a win-win to you feeling more confident when you carry your bag and pull out the club to play your next shot. Likewise, a clean body is equiavalent to a clean and clear mind; you stay focused and are more capable of handling the demands of the course. Therefore, Tarun Sardesai and all our golfers on board encourage you to make sure that you are keeping up to your health and hygiene in terms of taking care of your body as well as your belongings.
- Honesty, Consistency and Organization: Golf is a game that rewards detail-oriented players. Be methodical in your approach. Take care of the minor details in your game . Write your scores honestly and work towards consistently improving on the details each time you step on the course. A systematic and organized approach on the golf course is in itself an assurance that you can use your minds pace to focus on the shot at hand and not worry whether or not you have carried everything you need for the round.
