Joseph Pilates, the originator of the Pilates method, once said: “The only real guide to your true age lies not in years or how you THINK you feel, but in how you ACTUALLY are, as infallibly indicated by the degree of natural and normal flexibility enjoyed by your spine throughout life.” As this statement implies, it’s in our power to slow down the physical effects of aging by strengthening and maintaining our body’s natural flexibility.

Golf Muscle Basics
A golfer’s healthy posture begins with full-body strength, flexibility and the maintenance of muscle balance. Players need strength in the upper- and lower-body musculature and the postural and rotational muscles. They also need to be mindful of muscular symmetry (Archambault 2000). Asymmetry is pervasive among golfers; the shoulder, biceps, forearm and upper back tend to develop more on a golfer’s dominant side. The stronger muscles are tighter, while the weaker muscles are more flexible (Baptiste & Mendola 1999). Many golfers desire a better bilateral balance in their musculature, as do most one-sided athletes (for example, baseball pitchers and tennis players).

For those that want to establish a regular fitness routine but have trouble finding the time, the Range Of Motion (ROM) machine is a perfect solution. By engaging more muscles than are engaged through the use of a bike, a rowing machine, and a stair climber combined, the ROM allows people of any fitness level to get a thorough cardio, strength and flexibility workout in only 4-8 minutes.
