Personal trainer Helene Sallerson emphasized proper form during the Rochester EWGA women's golf fitness class. Her routines included many core strength exercises like this one, for abdominals.

We’re almost there!

This coming Saturday is the sixth and final week of the EWGA Golf Fitness Class with personal trainer Helene Sallerson.

And what a great experience it’s been! Helene has been fantastic. She’s helped us strengthen all the major muscle groups we need to swing a club, from core and upper body to glutes.

Yes, we found ourselves a bit stiff and sore the next morning — especially those first few weeks. But we’ve also seen results — and we’ve learned some great new fitness techniques and habits.

And just in time for the 2010 golf season, too!

Just what you’ve been looking for? Six-week class to get fit for golf!
