Workout

[returned golfer]

I'm in the process of losing a few lbs and want to now focus my workout routine towards my game.

I currently stand at 60KG and 5"6 (About 20% body fat, aiming to get down to about 15%)

I've started to do press ups(hopefully shift my moobs), sit ups, planks, crunches, squats, leg raises and forearm stuff to hopefully help with my golf and increase my core and lower body strength/balance.

I was wondering if anyone could offer up some advice if this is a good start or if I should be focussing on anything else in particular, or what sort of routine I should be doing these (daily, 2 days on 1 day off etc)

Thanks :)

Basically I'm a huge noob when it comes to this sort of stuff and am fumbling round like a blind man in a dark alley..

ask a fitness instructor if you are working out at a gym.  they could tell you.

i've been working out for about 4 weeks now.  makes me feel so much better and im already a ton stronger.

Crossfit is the best all around workout program I've seen.  It works on everything (strength, flexibility, endurance, power, speed, and agility) and has done wonders for my golf swing in the 8 months that I've been doing it.  I made a pact with myself to never miss a workout and I've lost 60 lbs during that time.  The workouts are never the same and your body will never "get used" to it.  It will push you bigtime but the important part is to keep showing up and doing the work and you will get results.

I would incorporate as many core and rotational exercises as you could. Also, do some exercises where you stand on one foot and have to balance on that foot. Make sure you are using good form to prevent injury.

I agree, core is huge. For most of us, we sit around all day. For me, even if i do a day of cardio, i end it with a 15 min sesson of ab work. We can walk all day, but get an 8 hour desk job, and your core area just suffers.
