I hear yoga is suppose to be great for golf because it strengthens your core muscle while at the same time makes you really flexible.

Well after looking at some of these guys on tour, i have to believe that flexibility is key as opposed to big bulging muscles

I do 10 to 15 minutes of core, hip and shoulder stretching every morning, then I play golf (walking) 3 to 4 days a week ... that's my program. Has helped me lose 30 pounds and 2 pant sizes in 3 months.

Several threads on here about P90X. I'd suggest looking up Insanity put out by the same people. Very similar, but no weights involved. Will absolutely kick anyone's ass unless you are about .2% of the population. Involves heavy core building along with yoga.

Titleist Performance Institute has a major online section dealing with golf fitness.

One really interesting theme is that strength and power are not the same thing:

    • Day 161 1-21 Backswing focus, used mirror to check position. After a few reps hit foam ball.
    • Day 19: 2026.01.21 Only managed ten minutes of slow swings indoors tonight. Same progress pieces.
    • For someone with a very consistent swing speed and ball strike, upgrades may improve performance. For everyday golfers, probably not. I'm a rather odd player. I usually get best performance from basic pro or tour heads, but with lighter stock shaft from the model's standard driver set up. (Yes, current EXS is an exception.) When I get a full driver fitting, I usually try a couple of modest upgrade  (not super magic) shafts. Most of the time upgrade gives a couple of extra yards, or 10 yards less. Remember this about stock shafts: They are matched to a particular driver model to fit the type of player likely to adopt that model. Also, most OEMs offer a variety of stock shafts in their drivers. Test for which one works best. And, the final decider...  
    • Uh, seeing you're having trouble with hit-and-miss performance from inherited clubs... Get Fitted! IF the 910H pair don't work, swap them out. Also, only two degrees separation in loft is not much. You might consider a 4W (much more reliable than a 3W) plus hybrid. This would give more distance separation than two Hs. For hybrid, get one you can hit... Maybe a more benevolent 4H. Quite often I try to brand match my bridge clubs (FWs and Hs), and my irons and wedges... but not always. Whatever works!
