No exaggeration. This is the best stretching exercise for golf on UA-cam (and I’ve looked at a lot of them!).
Glad you like it Art. Stay consistent and you will really start to notice the benefits. Let me know how it goes.

Thanks for finding the time to improve your game. Also for your feedback. Stay consistent for the most improvement and keep it in the short grass!
Efficient routine. Everything you need for a good golf stretch and love the subtle wholesomeness of the instructor. Great wisdom and knowledge. This will be a staple of my training.
The best video on stretching on UA-cam! Much appreciated Colin!
I missed this when you posted awhile back. Thank you for the kind words and good review. I'm happy that I can help. Hope you have been keeping at it!
Love this.
I was doing this everyday last year, up until Summer. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that my HCP went down to 8, since not doing it, it’s gone up. My actual Gym workouts meanwhile I’ve been picking up more niggling injuries.
Best stretching routine I’ve done. Doing it every day again 👊🏽 love it 👌🏽
I am 62 years old and have rheumatoid arthritis and also have a fused ankle and foot through previous surgery. Needless to say my flexibility isn’t what it used to be. I used this stretching workout daily over the past 8 months and saw my index fall from 12.5 in April to 8.3 most recently. The greater flexibility I discovered allowed me to make a more complete move on the ball and really improved my ball striking. Thanks Colin!!
That is awesome Jeff, well done! You are a testament to hard work and dedication and the results that come with it. Flexibility is crucial and staying consistent with it like you have done is the only way to see the benefits. Congrats. Now go work on that short game to knock a few more strokes off the index!
These are great exercises.
Here’s my story:
Played small school college golf. Always desired to play on Senior Tour after I retired. All that came crashing down when I had a spinal fusion of L4/L5/S1 in 2010 at the age of 48. Now at 56 yrs old, my back progressively got worse causing me to retire from police work. I still have the hardware in my back. Surprisingly, I can still play golf and still have a good swing.
Prior to my injury I was a 1.6 handicap.
After working on flexibility using these exercises and doing other exercises specifically for golf, as well as working with my pro/coach, I have dramatically improved my game. My handicap got as low as +3.4 this summer.
These are great exercises and WILL help improve your game. But you HAVE to put the work in. You HAVE to; there are no shortcuts. You HAVE to do the work.
This statement says it all: If you’re not flexible, your body will never let you get into the proper position to make a good golf swing; no matter how much you practice, your body will just compensate for it.
No truer words have been said.
You HAVE to be flexible in order to perform athletically; and golf IS an athletic sport.
I’m now back to competing again with the young college guys here in Oklahoma....and we have some seriously GOOD golfers in this state.
And these exercises are credited with a lot of that success!
These exercises are “FORE” every golfer of every age; especially “FORE” older golfers.
what a great comeback story! Well done, keep up the hard work. As Gary Player said, the harder I work, the luckier I get." He may have been quoting someone else, but it sure makes sense. Thanks for the comments, I'm glad it's helping you out.
I gotta say, I like Colin Westerman! Because of these stretches, I drove farther than usual, from 220 yards all the way up to 245 to 250 yards! And I'm just a beginner so all thanks to you Colin!
Thank you so much for the great comment! That is what I am trying to get everyone to do. Hitting the ball far makes the game more fun, and fun is what it's all about
Good video here. Stretching is 100% a major key for golfing excellence.
Thanks Nicholas, you are correct it is very underrated and as important as strength and power. Keep it up!
Excellent video Colin. I feel amazing after these stretches. Good work.
I'm so happy they help you out. I hope you have continued to help you out in golf and in overall movement. Keep it up!
Thank you! Having back
Issues, being sore around mid back, going to do this each day.
Well done. Go slowly to avoid any discomfort. Flexibility changes take time. Try the upper back mobility routine as well. Keep at it!
I passed this vid numerous time and finally I did it. 👍
Well done. I guess that means you are ready for it now. Stay consistent. Changes require self-discipline.
All these stretches felt great. I really lack flexibility so I'm going to combine this with your workout to hopefully improve my game and have less fatigue and lower back pain.
Thanks Al. How did the program work out for you? I hope you have made some improvement in your fitness, back pain and your golf game with the golf workouts. I am planning a new series of videos, hopefully you have subscribed. Stay healthy
This was awesome. Will be doing this everyday.
Nice work Josh. It will really help. If you have problem areas like hips or back, do the 5 minute videos for those areas. Stay loose!
💯 Nice workout
Hope it helps the hammies!
Thanks just what I need
Good stuff. Also have routines for specific body parts on my channel. Keep at it!
the first time I enjoy stretching!
How was the second time?? Hope you have managed to keep it up, it will really help you out. Consistency is key. Thanks for the comments
Awesome video - thanks for sharing this to world
Thank you for watching and commenting, keep it up and you will keep on feeling and hitting better. I am working again and planning a few more videos. Any golf fitness videos you'd like to see?
This is great, def needed it
Thanks Ernesto! I hope to have more videos in the future now that I am back at it. Hope you have continued to get stretchier.
Great video..Many thanks for sharing!
You're welcome, I'm glad you like it. I hope you were able to stay consistent and continued improving. Thank you for the comment.
Great exercises!
Glad you liked them, I hope they have continued to help you hit it past your buddies! Keep it up and thanks for the comments
Very good session
Great video! I needed this for this upcoming Sunday.
I sure hope it helped on many given Sundays! Thanks for watching
This guy is like Conan O Brian on quaaludes! Great video!
More like 17 cups of coffee! I think it was around 2 am when I filmed this after doing both workouts twice. Thanks for the comment, hope to have some more workouts really soon. Conan
15 Minutes a day. I am going to commit to this. Like the comment below I had a spinal fusion as well. As you know and I know we have good days and bad days. Maybe this will help.
How did it go?? I hope it has continued to help you out. With any spinal fusion, whether you or Tiger, it is so important to keep strong and loose. Just don't overdo the intensity of the stretch. Thanks for the comments
Should you do the 15 minute stretching program before golf
If you have 15 minutes in the morning before golf, I think it would make a huge difference to your game. I do this as much as possible before I play, I find it helps me start with birdies, not bogies! Keep it up, thanks or the comments Brian (sorry for the late reply, I was on a bit of a hiatus)
This video fixed my saw.
Question? is the 5 min warm up is that enough to do this program or do you need do full work out every day to do stretching? i have noticed you saying warm the muscles first
Hey Thomas. You don't have to do a full workout every time. 5 to 10 minutes of warm up is sufficient to loosen muscles. Go for a walk, or do a series of full body movements until the body feels a little heat.
I can relatively easily turn my shoulders to 90° (45° hips) but can’t get my arm much above parallel to the ground in my backswing. I try crossing my arm in front of my chest and letting the other arm pull it in, but that doesn’t seem to help me much. Is it a lat issue?
Could be, or there could be an issue with tight tissue between your shoulder blades that needs to be worked out. If you can lean against a wall and raise your arms straight up to the wall without lifting your butt off the wall them your lats are not tight.
@@westermangolftraining3992 Thanks, I will try that test.
