Golf Specific and Well Written

Dr. Yessis obviously knows his stuff and lays out a program of truly golf specific exercises. By working out the main golf muscles in movements and joint angles that replicate the golf swing, here is a program with great potential and value to any golfer looking to improve. Other books out there claim to be golf specific, but all too often they just promote general textbook exercises which can be applied to any sport. I also like how much Yessis emphasizes the importance of preventing injuries, not simply treating them. He especially discusses the back - "the key to golf longevity" - and has good strength/flexibility exercises for the core to keep your back strong and healthy. If you value playing this great game for a lifetime, I recommend you read this book!
