Prone twist
Start with both feet supported on a bench and both hands positioned on the floor, shoulder width apart. Bend one knee to waist height and then rotate the trunk toward the opposite side. Hold up to 5 seconds. Switch legs and repeat to the opposite side.
Roman twist
Incorporating a twisting motion with a roman chair exercise will increase the challenge to the oblique muscles improving trunk stabilization capacity.


Russian twist
Position yourself on the roman chair as shown. While maintaining the abdominal bracing contraction, slowly rotate your trunk and arms to the side. Hold for up to 5 seconds. Return to the start position and repeat to the opposite side. To increase the intensity, hold a medicine ball out with straight arms.


Lat pull down
The latissimus dorsi provides power during the forward swing and acceleration phases of the golf swing. Since this muscle is used to provide power, it should be trained with low repetitions and heavy weights.
Kettle ball squats
Squat and rotate to grab a kettle ball positioned to the outside of your right foot. As you stand up from the squat position, rotate the kettle ball in a diagonal position across your body to above the left shoulder. Repeat this pattern to each side.
Standing and seated horizontal throws
Position yourself perpendicular to a rebounder approximately 8–10 feet away. While standing or in a seated position, throw a light play ball or medicine ball across your body toward the rebounder. As the ball rebounds back to you, catch it, and quickly throw it back toward the rebounder. Repeat this sequence for the desired number of repetitions. When sitting on a physio ball, maintain an upright, neutral spine posture.
