Take the hand weights or “dumbells” for instance. They may look simple. They are lightweight – 5 to 8 pounds of metal. But looks can be deceiving. These seemingly simple pieces of golf equipment can actually do a lot for your golf game. They can actually aid you with up to 12 golf specific exercise routines. And these are for various core regions. Fantastic!

Rubber tubing can likewise aid you with so many types of golf related physical exercises. From the simple to the complex. What’s more, just like those dumbbells, they are inexpensive, lightweight, and portable. You can practically take your “exercise program” with you — literally.

Then there are the balls. These are the weighted medicine balls and stability balls. For those who aren’t sure of their differences, the medicine balls are pretty much your tennis ball sized round objects. They are a bit heavier though. These are fantastic for developing those forearm muscles. The stability ball on the other hand, is that beach ball-like round thing used to develop stability, balance and overall fitness. And just like other exercise golf equipment, they can be taken anywhere and used anytime.

So know what type of exercise golf equipment your body needs. Doing so will definitely help you get that near-perfect game.
