what fitness tests or methods of evaluation should be used to assess an avid golfer?
what fitness tests or methods of evaluation should be used to assess an avid golfer….Chad is an avid golfer. He wishes to improve his golf game and is very motivated to get started on a training program. Chad has exercised regularly for the past 8 years and is in good physical health. Most of his exercise has been aerobic in nature with only a small amount of resistance training.
It’s unrelated.
Although physical condition and strenghth is good…it may not make any difference to his game.
A history of playing tennis, baseball, cricket..any game with hand eye co-ordination would give a better indication of suitability to play golf.
You might have found an answer to your own question..I think so, but it doesn’t relate to the average player. Maybe a Pro?
