Weight Loss and fitness

Lets be real if you think golf is an athletic sport then you have to try to be in the best shape you can. You are not a body builder or a track star but you need flexibility and power. In order to do this your body needs to work as well as it can. At 59 by best athletic days are long past. I can not longer do anything as well as I could at 29. However I sucked at golf at 29 39 and 49. I have a very good chance to play my best golf in my 60s before the real decline starts. I have modest goals I do not expect to play scratch or make the senior tour. I just want to shoot constantly in the 80s Now don't get me wrong a 79 or a par round would be great.

I started the quest to build my swing on Aug 10th Since then I have lost 17 pounds down to 233 from 250 I still need to drop another 40 by goal is to do it by June 1st.   I have been easing into it. Today I take it up a notch and put a schedule to it.
