To achieve full potential a golfer requires the ability to utilise almost every joint to its functional capacity. Any restrictions will result in compensations elsewhere in the kinetic chain. Such compensations result in swing faults and inconsistencies within the swing.
Therefore it is important to keep your body flexible and functioning correctly and your muscles balanced without any areas of particular tension. This flexibility is required for the basis before you start working on strength and power training.
It is also important to carry out a golf specific warm up before playing, that will not only prepare your muscles and connective tissues, but will also lubricate your joints in preparation for full functioning mobility.
