Golf can help to maintain your fitness simply through the amount of walking involved
Some golf courses can mean you walk up to 4 miles! Golf also helps to maintain both spinal and shoulder range of movement and it also works your core stability.
Although it is a low impact sport, it is important that you do a good warm up before you play a round of golf, and
perform stretches at the end of the round in the opposite direction to which you swing your golf club.
