Workout Before or After Playing a Round of Golf (2022)

[kenhockey2]

I always workout after playing a round of golf to maintain my strength and conditioning.  I perform 20 minutes `indoor spinning intervals, easy. Then, finish off with 2 sets of 10 reps of resistance band strength training. Lastly, drink a muscle milk protein shake.

I only do stretching or yoga type exercises after playing.

Depends on the priorities. If I want to prioritize strength training Ill just take a rest day from golf or workout before golf.

If I am just doing it for maintenance usually after.

I played 18 holes of Par 3 golf this morning to work on my short game and putting. I did a post golf workout, 2000 meters of indoor rowing.

I do a lot of 12oz. curls after most rounds.  Heck, during the round for that matter.  Come to think of it, before the round too!

A few month ago tested hitting the gym before a round of golf, not good result. I was soured for a few holes, not ideal for tournament play. 

After golf I'm tired, the is no way I hit the gym. Even My legs are tired next morning so I always take a rest day and I'm fully recovered to hit the gym the next morning.

I have never performed any kind of "study" on this but I "feel" like I play better after a workout. I hit the gym the morning before rounds when ever I can. 

The truth is I "feel" better after a morning workout no matter what I'm doing afterwards. 

If I do any kind of workout after the round, 99 times out of 100 its just stretching.

I usually just drink a beer after playing golf.
I may stretch my arm out and alert the barkeep that I want a second beer!

Whether before work, golf, or whatever, I always get my exercise in right after I get up in the morning.  Just my habit.

Since spinal surgery, I try to do a 30-40-minute stretching routine that includes some planks and push-ups each morning.

I recently injured my hip flexor with subsequent SI joint pain. 

My new routine before I hit the range includes joint mobility moves (various), resistance band walks (around knees and ankles), as well as slow and controlled orange whip swings (weighted club). After the range I immediately stretch - including "the world's greatest stretch"
