Yoga classes may lengthen your drive because of the way that a golf swing works.
Thinking of hitting the links at one of the nation's capital's many golf courses? If so, you might want to consider trying yoga and meditation exercises, which many experts say may help prevent muscular tightness or soreness and potentially improve your game.
According to Men's Health, Washington, DC, yoga classes may lengthen your drive because of the way that a golf swing works. Katherine Roberts, a fitness guru for the Golf Channel, explained.
"Swing power is generated from the lower body to the hips, the trunk, the shoulders, the arms and out to the club," she told the fitness magazine. "A lot of yoga postures are very good at getting deep into the connective tissue and musculature of the hips," which she said can increase the ground-up power of a gold drive.
And if you think yoga can only help male golfers hone their skills on the fairway, think again. Yahoo! Sports recently published an article describing the popularity of yoga among female golfers, both amateur and professional.
The news source noted that the holistic regimen can help ladies increase their flexibility and, perhaps even more important, build the strength and endurance to hit the 18th hole with ease.
