I'm in the gym 3 to 4 times a week. I do a lot of flexiblity exercises combined with resistance bands and heavy weight training.

One of these workouts is devoted strictly to cardio: stairmaster and running.

Nope. I always say I am going to but then never do. I do stretch everyday for about 15 minutes in the morning and at night and a little extra stretching before I hit the course.

So who works out on a regular basis here?

I work out regularly and even typed my workout routine once. Check it out:

It was more of a weight training schedule that I had from football, added more reps and decreased weight to maintain instead of build bulk.

Twice a week with a personal trainer!

Mostly cardio and flexibility training.
Some light weight training, but I plan to hit it harder as the summer goes on..

It's seems to be making a big difference toward the end of the course. I'm not nearly as tired and my back is getting more and more flexible.

5 Days a week and 3 nights a week football training and it never seemed to help my golf game at all untill i started doing lower back exercises... I was starting to get a dodgy back so i started doing lots of lower back exercises (back extensions, dead lifts etc) as well as a lot of stretching in that area and a lot of ab work and it has improved my game out of sight, getting a lot more hip turn now and just feel a lot more power coming from the core... so to answer your question if you want to improve your golf game work your lower back and abs !!

I ride a bike 20 miles or so a day, then lift some small weights and stretch.

I also do 200 pushups, crunches, and reverse crunches every night before bed.

I voted no because the little bit of stretching I do everyday is hardly a workout, but my job is somewhat physically active so that helps, but no specific workout routine.

I enjoy working out during the week and playing sports (golf included :) on the weekends...basically this is my routine...obviously YMMV

20 min jog 3 times a week in the morning before work (usually the first three days, but if its raining, i'll skip for the next day).

Hit the gym 3 times a week after work and do these in order per day:
Day 1-Chest
Day 2-Back
Day 3-Shoulders
Day 4-Arms
Day 5-Legs + Core

In relation to golf fitness, its the legs and core workout that is most important to me. If I don't do it, my lower back and legs lose stamina (I always walk when playing 18). It mainly consists of squats, leg curls, quad extensions, calf raises, groin exercises (i forget what they're called, but you basically sit on the chair and squeeze your two legs together to lift a desired weight). Core workouts consist of pulling cables in a 'golf swing/twisting motion' lifting a desired weight at different angles (diagonal down, diagonal up, straight around), lower back raises, and side crunches.

EDIT - Forgot to mention that i base my workouts around how i feel. So even if its day 1 for chest, if i feel like im stiff, ill focus on stretch exercises for that muscle area (with some lifting in there too obviously). Similarly - If its stamina, ill focus on high reps for that muscle area. If its strength, ill focus on more weight less reps...etc...hope this helps...i'm always interested to see how golfers exercise :)

my work outs are crazy. I have to stay in shape for "on camera" and contractual purposes or they can get rid of my a**
Of course I change the splits every 6 weeks as you should but here's typical

Cardio: 10 minute warm up jog - 10 - 15 incline 5 - 6mph
Day 1: chest & bi's supersets & circuits
day 2: back & shoulders
day 3: legs & tri's
day 4: rest
day 5: day 1 splits - LIGHT WEIGHT repping 20 reps
Day 6: legs.
day 7: rest

to end each work out: minimum 20 minutes of cardio:
stepper - level 10 - 15 for 20 minutes
treadmill either walk for 20 minutes at incline 15, speed 4.5 or do run/walk splits

and of course abs everyday
