Okanagan Golf Club Not Quite Open
Please accept my apologies for stating that The Bear was opening on March 19th. I went to join a friend at the clubhouse for lunch today; we quickly learned that they were not open yet! Apparently the new date is this weekend!

Why Train for Golf Fitness?
The common desire among golfers of all skill levels, be it a beginner or a professional golfer on the tour circuit, is to play better golf. Each and every golfer wants to improve his/her score and lower his/her handicap.
Keep in mind that golf is a highly athletic event. There are many beliefs that golf is a game of technical skill. It is; however, it is also important to understand the level of exertion and muscle activation involved in the golf swing. This makes golf comparable to sports such as football, hockey and martial arts. Amateur golfers achieve 90% of their peak muscle activity when driving a golf ball (same lifting intensity as picking up a weight that can only be lifted four times before total fatigue).
In my next posts, we will discuss why yoga is a great training method for golfers.
