Well said. The misunderstanding that so many people have especially athletic teams, not just golf is that they can do a few stretches or a little Yoga for while and that will give them these great benefits. The truth of course is that Yoga has to be done on a  consistent basis to achieve those effects. The muscles have what is called the stretch reflex which causes the muscles to actually contract at first and it takes  time to get past that.

I have worked with swim teams, soccer teams, and golf teams and all of them thought they could just do this stuff during the season and then pick it up again the next session and still get the benefits. 

Yes, yoga/stretching needs to become a long-term, ingrained habit, especially for a golfer.  Save a lot of problems.

do strength training regular basis and work on diet. You will see results in the first month.

Perform strength training two to three times a week. 2 to 3 sets of 12 reps per exercise. Use progressive resistance.
