Back and Neck Exercises

To warm up your back and neck, do the following exercises on the course before you begin playing. They will prepare your muscles and promote ideal mechanics to help prevent injury and improve your performance.

Perform 5 to 10 repetitions of each exercise using slow, controlled movements. Pay attention to your posture: stand up tall, and keep your abdominal muscles tight. You can use a golf club or the cart to help keep your balance if needed. Stop if you feel pain during any exercise.
