For years, the importance of strength training for golfers was maligned or dismissed as being, at best, an unimportant consideration in improving the golfer's game. But now that more and more professional and amateur golfers have turned to strength training to augment their game with outstanding results, we now know that proper strength training is an absolutely critical factor in improving not only the golfer's overall levels of health and fitness, but in dramatically improving his or her game as well. In "Strength Training for Golfers", John Little, creator of "Max Contraction Training" and the author of several popular books on weight training and fitness, offers a workout and training schedule specific to the unique fitness needs of the golfer. Little realized that present techniques for strength training for golfers lacked scientific research. The result of a successful ten-year study, the Max Contraction exercises included in this book specifically target the muscles used in the golf swing to help increase strength, flexibility, and muscle endurance, and add, on average, up to twenty additional yards of distance off the tee.The strength training exercises are complimented by 150 step-by-step color photographs and special, dedicated chapters on stretching and nutrition, giving golfers of all skill and experience levels everything they need to transform their golf game.
