Three Exercises for a Safe Swing

1. Scorpion Stretch

Lying on stomach with shoulders down, gradually rotate foot toward opposite hand; reverse and repeat (see photo)

2. Dumbbell Swing

Mimmic your golf swing with a 1-2 lb weight.  Start swing from opposite shoulder holding weight with one hand; complete full swing motion for several repetitions; repeat with other hand (see photo)

3. Half Kneeling Lift

In half kneeling position, lift and twist upward with both hands gripping a weight, medicine ball, or cable with light resistance;  maintain a stable core while you rotate (see photo)
