If you are something like me, your pre-randy routine is not exactly strong. To live in New York CityPlaying a round of golf is a matter all day. Between the time it takes to travel to and from the course plus the time spent on the course, the past total time can exceed seven or eight hours.
Given the considerable time of time that only takes to play 18 holes, I rarely have time for a proper pre-randy heat. While I would like to hit the balls and lie down for an hour, I just don’t have that kind of flexibility in my schedule. So when I play, I’m usually getting rid of some shakes in the first thesis and then go to it.
This is not exactly ideal, but I do to do with what I have. If I would need a perfect routine Before each round, I would play significantly less golf.
But just because I don’t have time to warm up as the good does not mean that I cannot be released properly before I play. In fact, with the five-minute routine from Fitness coach Mike CarrollPreparing my body to play is easier than ever before. Check below.
1. Foot shakes
Your feet are an integral part of your golf swing, so you are ready to light it up is essential. Carroll suggests some swinging legs to get loose hips and hamstrings.
2. The pelvic rotations
You have to support your body correctly to generate the swing speed, and part of this equation requires you to get separation between your pelvis and the torso. Extending the pelvis below will help you prepare your body to move this early in the round.
2. The pelvic rotations
Amateur players tend to truly fight with the rotation of their pelvis and the creation of the pelvis and torso division.
Pressing the club on Earth keeps the upper body in place, allowing you to focus on the pelvis.

3. Full body rotation
It can be seductive to become lazy and just use your arms and hands to swing the club, but when you do it, it costs yourself consistency and power. Get your body accustomed to the feeling of proper rotation with a full body rotation exercise.
3. Full body rotation
Let us rotate the pelvis and the torso, and by feeling our movement power.
By taking our hands and arms from the equation, we cannot be lazy with our rotation.
Gradually build speed and power.

4. Wing circles
Do not completely remove your arms from the equation when you swing, though. You still need them to work when you swing. Use some wing circles to release the wings in the first thesis.
4. Wing circles
Focus on keeping elbows extended and approaching your wings near the ears as they cross your head.
This will maximize the range of shoulder movement in each Rep.
Limited shoulder mobility can mean shorter and less speed oscillations.
Work on it!

5. Neck rotations
You may not think about your neck as an important element in golf swinging, but it is certainly. No one can swing in their full ability with a solid neck. Use some neck rotations to release it.
5. Neck rotations
Golfists tend to forget the importance of the “cervical backpack” / neck rotation ….Some they have a problem there, and then realize how difficult it is to swing with a solid neck!
This is an easy way to heat it and keep it removable.
