Big money Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I'm thinking if we had one of those chest expander exercise things in our car and stretched a few times with it prior round, our bodies would thank us. chestexpander.jpg no fun going to the first tee and flubbing it from being super stiff.

Curly6 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 My big goal for 2018 is to shoot 10 sub 80 rounds. I had a similar goal for 2017 and I can honestly say that I did not shoot a single round under 80. Very frustrating, however after a very productive iron fitting in the early fall, I feel much better in attaching that goal. I'm going to be placing a lot more of my efforts to increasing my GIR from 40% along with my FIR to above 33%. Smarter club selection on the tee box, and accuracy over distance is my approach to helping my FIR and smarter shots into greens (less pin seeking) will be my approach to tackle the GIR stat.

KCLeo12 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Feeling very good this week. I have really started eating well and working out more often. The looming trip to Mexico driving the motivation also.

Gg Owen Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Two things have helped me maintain a single digit handicap.Cardio , I will run - fast walk twice daily.My goal is 15 minutes twice a day. Will do it before work and before I go to bed at my local fitness world.Which equates to two miles a day.I also take a few backswings every day with no ball.And my main goal is to see how long I can stretch my arms back and up. Just a way of stretching my golf muscles and keeping a feel of width. I'm not on any body muscle building crusade. Just one more health and golf related. The cardio daily has really helped me produce more speed and consistency in my swing over the years. And all of this takes less than 45 minutes out of my busy schedules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony@CIC Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Well here it is almost the end of January and I'm still working out daily. One of my longer term goals was to ratchet up the number of reps in each exercise group every month so we'll see how that goes beginning Thursday .

Big money Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Went back to the gym this afternoon after taking 3 months off due to injury.Doing this very very light and even ran for 10 minutes of cardio.No bench press or shoulder work until I get the ok per the doctor.Really missed not being here more.And never realized how much fitness means to my life.I felt more enjoyment just being in the gym for an hour than I can post here.Cant wait to go back Keep it in the short stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peanut05 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I got down to about 155-160 last year (I'm only 5'5") so I was in decent shape then. It seems over the holidays and the last few months of my wife's pregnancy, I've been eating quite a bit more than I should. I've continued to run and go to the gym, but I need to get my diet back in shape. I'm hoping over the next month or so I can get back down to where I was.

Big money Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I went to the gym 3 times a week for the last month.Getting back into it again slowly and doing more reps than heavy weight.Ive always found that I see more gains going to the gym regularly.Versus working on my golf game for improvement.Not sure how this happens.My body and health can make some radical changes for the positive in a few months time at a gym.Where working on my game just as hard shows very little or even worse at times.I might just have better grasp on what it takes to get in shape.But after decades of golf I seem to have little to no grasp of it at times Anyone else relate to this?

Same here. Lighter weights with more reps is my ticket. And if I practice too much I usually practice the wrong way and my swing goes crooked.
