Standing Forward Bend (Utanasana) is a fundamental golf stretch that lengthens muscles in the back of the legs (hamstrings, calves, etc.). When these muscles are healthy and flexible, improvement occurs in the set up position, lower body rotation and decreased occurrence of lower back injuries.
Add Utanansana to your golf stretching routine to improve your health and your golf game!
