Golf stretches for a more fluid swing

Golf stretches for the hips while seated

You can stretch your hips many ways. Try this seated stretch first:

  • Sit on a chair, low table or bench. Place your right ankle on top of your left thigh, as shown in image 1.
  • Push down on your right knee with your right forearm. Then lean forward at your waist until you feel a gentle stretch in your right hip, as shown in image 2.
  • Repeat the stretch on the opposite side.
