Summary: Weak impression
Review: I am far from being the most athletic person in the world. This was one of the reasons I became interested in fitness for golfers. I do, however, know how to set up a regular stretching routine from high school gym classes, and found little new here to add to the exercises I already knew.

Where this book will offer a range of ways to get going for the person who has no memory of gym class, most of the routines here are pretty much common knowledge. It may make a good reference for the variety of stretching routines that exist, though, meaning that anyone who buys the book will get their investment back in some fashion. If you are looking to get more out of your dollar, look into a more general book on fitness and exercise. It may not have golf in the title, but the aim will be the same: producing a looser and more fit body.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Golf Flex
Review: I am not a golfer, but I did enjoy this book. Stretching is so important in any sport that you do. I think golfers forget how important flexibility is to their game. The photos are extremely helpful. The book is written in a way that is very easy to read and understand. I look to giving this book to all my golfing friends and family.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally no more soreness
Review: I can't stress enough how much Golf Flex has helped my Golf game and my daily life in general. Before I started doing the exercises in the book I would suffer from continual pain in my lower back and left shoulder. It got to a point where I really didn't fully enjoy playing the game I have loved for over 25 years because the pain that would result afterward. Since doing the stretching exercises in the book the pain has greatly alleviated. Since I am not a real exerciser, I found it very easy to follow the illustrations in the book that show clearly how each stretch is supposed to be done. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to wants to improve their daily mobility with only a 10-15 minute stretching regime with the exercises in Golf Flex. I would like to give much thanks to author, Paul Frediani, for writing such a easy to follow book. Thank you.

Summary: Exercise List, Little Plan
Review: I have 3 other stretching books, so in comparison this listed all the same exercises with 2 or 3 new ones I hadn't seen. I felt the lack of a comprehensive plan on how to implement this long-term was what was really necessary. I have 3-4 minutes to stretch, so I want the most benefit for my time rather than being told "do alot more."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simple Easy and Perfect for my Golf Game
Review: I have litterally purchased almost all the golf fitness books out there and this book is the best one. It is true the best thing you can do for your game is to increase your flexibility. This book has a great synopsis of all the different stretches specifically for golf. The best part of this book is the "10 minutes a day" guarantee. BUY IT.

Summary: golfer, client
Review: i have worked personally with paul at equinox gym in NYC, on ski stretching and conditioning, and am a golfer. paul's conditioning and flexibility exercises have helped me reduce my chronic lower back pain. in fact, i just came back in fine shape from a 12-day ski trip in utah. i recommend his program, particularly how you can work stretches into your daily routine. i am adding some of the golf-specific stretches in anticipation of hitting it longer this season.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The road less traveled
Review: I really like this book because of it's simplicity. I've used other golf fitness books, but they are mostly overwritten or too technical. This one is easy. It is more focused on the male anatomy and swing, so was not really useful for my wife, which is why I dropped it one star.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Get This Book And Start Using It Now!
Review: If you want to hit the golf ball further (and who doesn't!) you need to do flexibility exercises on a regular basis, every body knows that, right? But what exercises should you do? Well, this Golf Flex book details the exact exercises you should do and shows you (with clear pictures) along with simple and clear instructions how you should do each stretch to get the best results for your golf game.

I've started using this program and I'm already hitting the ball longer as well as feeling better physically and mentally. I highly recommend that any golfer who want's to make golf easier and more fun get this book and start using it. This book will not do anything for you unless you follow the advice but if you do, watch out - your golf shots will travel further and your golf swings will be easier.

I did have a few questions about this book so I emailed Paul and was almost shocked to not only get a response back but the responses to my questions were detailed and well thought out.

Get this book today and as soon as you get it start doing the program because the older you get the less flexible you will become UNLESS you do some regular stretching program!
