    Fitness Friday: Dustin Johnson's pre-round stretches with Randy Myers

    March 17, 2011

    *Editor's note: Every week my colleague Ron Kaspriske, Golf Digest Fitness Editor, presents Fitness Friday on the Instruction Blog. He gives you a great health and fitness tip or an exercise or stretch to get your body warmed up for the weekend. This week he does the latter, with help from a couple of friends. And remember to follow me on Twitter @RogerSchiffman.

    Golf Digest fitness expert Randy Myers works with some of the top golfers in the world, including uber-athlete Dustin Johnson. How athletic is Dustin? He can do a single-leg squat all the way to the ground (so his butt is nearly touching) and then stand up again. He can also stand on a physio ball and swing a golf club. Stand, I said. No joke. You might not be in the same class of athlete as Dustin, but one thing you have in common with him is how you should prepare for a round. Randy and Dustin took a break from their training schedule to demonstrate three stretches all golfers should do before teeing off.
