3. Stability ball back extension

"The biggest area of concern for golfers is the lower back," says Reid. By including excercises that strengthen the area, you'll help protect your body from lower back injuries.

Sets: 2
Reps: 15

1. Lie face-down with your hips over a stability ball and your feet shoulder-width apart. Place your hands behind your head with elbows out to the sides.
2. Bending from the hips only, raise your torso so it's in line with the legs. Pause then lower to starting position.

4. Lateral raise

Strengthening the shoulders helps make for a powerful swing. This exercise builds strength in the shoulders as you stand in golf posture.

Sets: 2
Reps: 12

1. Holding a light weight in each hand, stand in golf posture with your hips flexed, knees slightly bent and hip-width apart, and your torso slightly leaned forward.
2. Raise weights out to the sides until your arms are parallel to the floor. At the top of the movement, your shoulders should be rotated so that your palm is facing down. Lower weights to starting position.
