I have read the posts on this forum that Pilates are good way to increase your flexibility and core strength. My daughters are big advocates and have encouraged me to give it a try. Any recommendations on DVD that fits what male golfers would be looking to gain from the use of Pilates?

I do pilates at least twice a day and it definitely has improve my flexibility and more importantly has kept my back loose and stretched out. I just turned 51 a month ago and I need to keep flexible. I have notice a gain in distance because of the added flexibility.

I dvd I recommend is:

Pilates
beginning mat workout
with Ana Caban

I actually only do the energy work out which takes about 10 minutes and I always feel great after I finish the exercise. I only warning is go easy the first few times because my neck was sore a few times I did the 100's because you keep you neck off the ground for so long. I would recommend breaking the 100's into 50's until you build up your neck muscles. Other than that the exercise are not too difficult and Ana Caban is easy on the eyes.

    • Ah, got it.  Yeah I'd just play it for bogey. Even as a low handicap I wouldn't be all that upset with a bogey on that hole. 
    • Haha I made a I typo. I was thinking two things at once, ‘I don’t think bogey is a bad score’ and ‘I think bogey is a great score’. But I mixed them up and said the opposite 
    • How isn't bogey a great score? As a 20 handicap every single time you make a bogey you are playing better than expected. Because if you bogeyed every hole you'd most likely be lower than a 20. You're a high handicap playing a hole that is lined with hazards the entire length of it on both sides.  Bogey is a very solid score for you on that hole.  From 300yds off the tee PGA tour players average 3.71 strokes to hole out. As a high handicap you are going to be more than 1 full stroke higher than that, probably closer to 2 full strokes higher.  If you had 100 different 20 handicaps play that hole I would bet a lot of money that the scoring average is greater than 5.0 Sometimes courses have really hard holes. Play for your bogey, be ecstatic about a par, and do everything possible to minimize double bogey.

    • I don’t think bogey is a great score here. Will try the 7i - 7i approach. If I’m short, I think I can get out of the bunker and if I’m on the right I can chip up.
