Any exercises y'all do specifically to help with your golf game?

Core work is always great…that plus glute strength can help with strengthening and protecting your back. Couple of simpler ones that you can hold or pulse are side planks and hip bridges. You can also advance both of these via different movements or even with adding a weight on top of your hips for the hip bridges.

Side plank variations - hip dip, rotations with the arm that isn't on the ground, leg lifts with the leg that isn't on the ground. That last variation is killer.
Hip bridge variations - adding the weight on top of your hips, marching your legs while holding the bridge, pulsing.

There are so many other things I feel like that are out there. I do pretty general fitness, but I feel like I always am seeing the pros doing a lot of very focused stuff on top of general training.

Top of mind I would also definitely recommend yoga and lunges or holds with a cross body rotation.

My trainer has me do a lot of core and lower back exercises, like leg lifts, crunches, and lower back extensions. Then I also do 1:30 minute sets on a torso twist machine with light weight, 1 set to the right and 1 set to the left.

Has anyone here looked at ashtanga yoga for golf? I've taken a few classes now with a guy that skips all the weird yoga stuff. The routine essentially targets everything that you need for golf mobility and strength. It's MISIG x 10 for an hour+. I wish I would have done it 20 years ago. I'm terrible at it, but every inadequacy is also seen in my golf swing, now titled "an old man swing" by my daughter. Ouch.

I've always thought yoga was for the soy latte boys, still do…but I can't have an old man swing.

Peloton has some strength classes that are specific Strength for Golfers and Mobility for Golfers. Its a 8 class program with Selena Samuela.

Does anyone do anything for tennis elbow (pain on the outside area of the elbow)?

I'm experiencing it in both arms but especially my left (lead) arm.

I've had that fixed with dry needling and strengthening exercises for the affected area. Dry needling was the key in my opinion though.
