The average golf professional on the PGA Tour who are hitting over 300 yards are stronger, leaner and more fit these days. Some say it's the 'Tiger Woods effect' meaning that golfers want the same kind of body that Tiger Woods has or at least, has the same regiment and attitude towards fitness and body building as Tiger has. Lets face it, everybody who picks up a club wants to hit the ball further. Whether it is about hitting more greens in regulation or winning bets between buddies, every golfer wants more distance. The key to gaining distance is to strengthen parts of your body so that you can hit the ball with more explosive power. It is a combination of upper body strength, rotation, flexibility and lower body stability.
