What a warm-up can support

  • Mobility and flexibility through the shoulders, trunk and hips.
  • More consistent movement from the opening swings.
  • A gradual increase in physical demand before full-speed golf.

A simple five-minute routine

Move progressively rather than chasing maximum range. Begin comfortably and let the speed and amplitude increase as your body warms.

  • Arm circles and shoulder rotations.
  • Standing torso rotations.
  • Hip openers.
  • Bodyweight squats.
  • Club-assisted side bends.

Put it into practice

A warm-up should leave you feeling prepared, not fatigued. Adapt the routine to your body and allow extra time when you are stiff, returning from injury or preparing for an important round.

General information: Exercises and preparation should be adapted to your current capacity and history. Stop if a movement causes pain and seek appropriate professional guidance where needed.
