What are some of the benefits? Increased range of motion can lead to a more fluid golf swing and; therefore,
more power.
Stretching tight muscle groups can help off-set the imbalances that naturally occur during the game due to repeated movement in one direction.
Improved flexibility can improve coordination because your muscles can work more efficiently around the joints.
Muscles that are more flexible are usually more relaxed which will decrease muscle tension, cramping and soreness.

7 WAYS TO STAY COOL THIS SUMMER 1. Air conditioning, or proper air circulation, is the most effective means of controlling heat. If it’s not possi-ble to exercise in an air-conditioned environment, then try to work out in an environment with proper air cir-culation. A cooler environment can make exercise during hot weather much more enjoyable as well as help your body maintain optimal thermoregulation. 2. Exercise first thing in the morning before the heat sets in. You know it’s going to be a hot day when you take your first step outside and feel the heat before the sun is above the horizon. Even in this heat the early morning, when the sun is not directly overhead, can still be the coolest time of day. Two concerns with exer-cising in the evening are that asphalt or concrete surfaces can retain and give off heat, and a lack of daylight makes visibility (and safety) an issue. One way to beat the heat is to get your workout in before the sun is high in the sky. 3. Wear moisture wicking tops. It can be tempting to shed clothing when it’s hot, but wearing a shirt can ac-tually help you stay cooler because the sweat is being removed from the skin. The more efficiently water can be removed from the surface of your skin; the cooler you will stay during the workout. 4. Limit heat exposure. This means that when it is hot outside you should not exercise in studios where the temperature is artificially elevated. The artificial heat in a hot studio, combined with normal summer heat, can cause long-term stress and damage to your body. Save the hot yoga for the winter months when you’ll want to be warm and toasty. 5. Take an ice bath. If you play outdoor sports or have a long, hard outdoor training session in the heat one of the best ways to bring your core temperature down is by taking an ice bath. Ice baths are also an effective means of promoting muscle recovery, which can be important if you are participating in a multi-day tournament or want to train hard two days in a row. There’s a reason why football teams, from high school to professional level, use ice baths during summer two-a-days. They work! If you find an ice bath tough to bear, do what many football players do: wear a hoodie or sweatshirt. Yes, it will get wet but it can help you be more comfortable. 6. Cold towels. If an ice bath isn’t available, a cold towel placed on your neck or wrists can help reduce core temperature and provide a cooling sensation. Keep a couple of small towels in your freezer at home or in a cooler if you’re at an outdoor event and use them to help you cool down quickly. 7. One of the best ways to beat the heat is to stay properly hydrated. Make sure to drink water before, during and after your workouts. Here is a good rule of thumb for proper hydration: weigh yourself before and immediately after you exercise. For every pound of weight loss drink approximately one quart of water. Sports drinks with electrolytes like sodium or potassium can help you rehydrate more quickly, but they can also be high in calories so make sure to read the labels to know exactly how many calories are in each serving.
Remember that exercise is physical stress applied to the body. Heat adds extra stress but implementing these strategies can help you stay cool so you can keep moving all summer long. On days when the temperature spikes, adjust your workout accordingly and on days when the temperature is a little cooler, feel free to push a little harder.
