One of the items I think every golfer should have is a golf exercise ball. You know…the fitness ball you see in all the stores…even Target! These look like big beach balls, but they can be used for so many golf and health benefits that I strongly recommend you get one. And…they’re only $30 or so!
Below is a picture of one of these balls. They are perfect to sit on at your computer. Actually I’m doing it right now.
They come in different sizes, but there are 2 main sizes. You’ve got a 55cm ball that is typically for golfers 5′6″ and under. And you’ve got a 65cm ball for golfers 5′6″ and taller.
It is important to get the size that fits your height, so go off the above scale to make your choice.
Below, you’ll see me doing an exercise out of my 3 Minutes For 30 Days golf exercise ebook.
There are so many things you can do with an exercise ball that will add stability, control, balance, and coordination to your swing, which will dramatically improve your golf swing consistency.
The great thing about the ball is the stability factor. Just getting on the ball will fire up muscles you haven’t used for a long time. These muscles will directly improve your golf swing.
Sitting on the ball at your computer will quickly strengthen your back muscles which will improve your golf posture. Many older golfers struggle with posture, and getting on the ball can make a huge difference.
