What Can TRX Do For You?
Now available here in the Five Towns, a brand new TRX workout that helps give your golf game the edge it needs. TRX will help you establish stability, increase mobility, and improve your coordination to drive a perfect golf swing.
Golfers don't want to be bulky. They want to be strong, yet lean. Body weight exercises, in traditional forms and through TRX workouts, are an excellent way to develop that specific type of strength that golfers need.
Golf relies heavily on rotation, not only range of motion but strength as well. There are very few pieces of gym equipment that give you the freedom of motion to develop this rotation strength like the TRX does. There are many different exercises to target you low back as well as hip and pelvic muscles to develop the necessary strength and stability for golf.
In regards to the upper body, truly let your imagination be your guide! There are endless variations of upper body exercises to add to a golf strength training program. In addition to your standard TRX exercises, you can also work on power development and explosion by simulating plyometrics. Besides using a medicine ball, this is one of the better ways to develop quick bursts of strength in your arms that I have seen.
Moving down to the lower extremities, the TRX will put on new spin on some traditional exercises such as bridging, squats, and lunges. The instability that it provides will recruit more muscle fibers in order to help stabilize your body.
Also, many of the exercises can also be performed as a plyometric version. This is great for increasing force production and power.
Working your core is one of the most important aspects to a golf fitness program. It is of great importance for increasing your power and will also help prevent back injuries. There are many different types of TRX core exercises, but the specific ones the focus primarily on rotation will really challenge you.
