Golf exercises can be of great benefit within a comprehensive golf swing improvement program. Research and emperical evidence suggests that it is now neccessary for the golfer to develop certain levels of joint mobility, segmental stability, muscular flexibility, strength, endurance, and power in order to execute a biomechanically efficient golf swing. If these physical components are not developed and limitations exist within ones body, the ability to execute an efficient golf swing will most likely be impeded.

These impedences will typically result in the development of compensations in an attempt to overcome these physical dysfunctions affecting the golf swing. As a result, all of this information points to the need of the golfer to understand the importance of the Body-Swing Connection. The body-swing connection principle simply states the execution of a biomechanically efficient golf swing requires the development of a physical foundation to suport the athletic actions involved in the swing. The physical foundation required of the golf swing is composed of certain levels of joint mobility, segemental stability, muscular flexibility, strength, endurance, and power.

The process by which a golfer can develop the required levels of mobility, stability, flexibility, stregth, endurance, and power outlined within the Body-Swing Connection is via a golf fitness training program. This type of training program will encompass a series of exercises developing the body around the golf swing. Over time such a program can remove physical dysfunctions limiting ones golf swing and game development.
