I was curious as to other golfers workout routines during the season.  I have been debating some different things with myself and I was curious to other views.  If you are golfing two or three times a week is working out hard actually hurting your game?

I think you can work out hard and be fine. I have two big workouts a week, power lifting and kettlebell class back to back twice a week and it doesn't effect my golf swing. Yes there are some days you'll be sore but long term it's not a big deal IMO If anything it helps your stamina and helps you be more "aware" of your body. There are plenty of guys on various tours that work out regularly and play on the same day.

    • Brutal! Get well soon, Vishal. Good to hear it's feeling strong and stable.
    • Could have been but not for sure. Felt a slight knee 'click' during a ski run down the slope in late December but didn't think much of it at that time. Didn't feel right for a few weeks so went to the doctor, got an MRI in late Jan, which revealed the damage. Seems like a cocktail of ligament/cartilage possible long term degeneration and some new tears. Throw in some tibial over-calcification for garnish. Interestingly there was never much pain/swelling, etc for anything catastrophic. Just didn't feel 100% stable with some bone clicking doing couple of mundane things.  I'm feeling pretty strong and stable now but docs order to not test the knee for a while while I'm doing some PT. Have some major travel coming up in March so will get another MRI in April to reassess further treatment if required. In the least have some interesting times ahead of me. 
    • Dang! You didn't share that info. Soccer?
    • Checking in. Haven't posted in a while since haven't done much this year and not sure I will for a while. Nursing partially torn ACL and meniscus on the left knee since late December and trying my best to avoid surgery for now. May not be any golf for me for a bit. Of course, I did pick a good time to get benched.
