When it comes to exercise, many people make the mistake of thinking that an effective workout is all about making yourself as miserable as possible. Phrases like “Pain is weakness leaving the body!” & even the milder “Feel the burn!” give us this misguided idea that the best workout is the one that we don’t enjoy. In fact, the reality is the exact opposite. The best form of exercise is the form of exercise you genuinely like. After all, when you enjoy something, you tend to do it more often. If you love golfing at the Wyncote Golf Club, you’re in luck. Your favorite pastime is an excellent way to stay fit, especially for seniors. Here’s why.
You Pick the Intensity
One of the wonderful things about golf is that there is such a variety of ways to play & practice that it can easily suit a wide range of ability levels. One straightforward example is opting to use or not use a golf cart. If you have the strength & energy to enjoy a brisk (or leisurely) walk between holes, you can. If that’s not in the cards for you on any particular day, you have the option to use a cart & reduce your intensity.
This is invaluable for senior players, whose energy levels might fluctuate from day to day. Knowing you have options to make your play less rigorous — or more, when possible — gives you the freedom to stick with it through the ups & downs of life. This flexibility makes consistent exercise possible & pleasant.
It Benefits from Cross-Training
Although golf is, in & of itself, an excellent form of exercise, it also encourages you to add additional workout routines into your schedule. For example, it’s always best to practice flexibility & mobility before & between games. Warming up, & keeping your muscles loose between games at-home exercises, helps improve your game & prevent injury on the course.
This additional exercise can really do wonders for health in your golden years. Although exercise is important no matter what age you are, it becomes vital as you get older. In addition to the cardio, mood, & energy benefits, you also get necessary protection against injury. As we get older, we tend to heal a little slower than in our younger years. As a result, injuries can leave us in a far more precarious position. Strength, balance, & mobility all help you prevent those injuries in the first place.
Golf Gets You Outside
Finally, one of the simplest & most powerful health benefits of golf is that it gets you out in the fresh air & sunshine. It might surprise you to learn that simply being outside has myriad health benefits in & of itself. For starters, when you’re exposed to sunlight, your body produces vitamin D, a necessary nutrient. This improves your immune system, boosts energy, & supports balanced emotional health.
Speaking of emotional health, the sun isn’t the only thing going for you when you spend time outdoors. Studies have shown that exposure to nature helps reduce anxiety & boost happiness. Fresh air, as well, has been linked to better mental fitness. Anything that gets you outdoors & keeps you from being cooped up at home is bound to leave you better prepared to handle challenging emotions, & more open to positive ones.
Ultimately, however, the biggest health benefit of golf truly is the fact that it’s fun. Exercise shouldn’t be a grind — at its best, exercise is a way to enjoy your body’s abilities. Golf keeps you active, makes you strong, & gets you outside, all while being a legitimately great time.
