About Off Season Golf Training
Golfers! Winter is here and that means it’s time to train. For the past few weeks, our Titleist Performance Institute Certified Chiropractor Dr. Jeff Belgue, has demonstrated exercises to incorporate into your off season golf strengthening programs!

4. Repeat on both sides
Medicine Ball Toss – Rotation with Step

3. Train both sides
