Golf stretches for the quadriceps
Start off your golf stretches by first stretching the quadriceps. Quadriceps are the muscles in the front of the thighs. Start with this stretch:
- Stand with your back to a chair or bench and cross your arms over your chest. Place your left foot on the bench, as shown in image 1. You can use a chair or bench with a lower seat than the one shown here.
- Keep your left knee even with or behind your right knee. Tighten the left buttock muscles. You'll feel a stretch in the front of your left thigh.
- To mimic your backswing, rotate your shoulders and torso to the right and bend your left shoulder and trunk slightly toward the ground, as shown in image 2.
- Repeat the stretch on the opposite side.
