How Tiger Stays In Great Shape Related Links Normal Waist Size for a Man Six Pack Abs-Step by Step Snoring Raises Your Risk of Stroke Ideal Weight for Men of Different Heights We pulled together all the available public information (from magazine interviews with Tiger or his friends) on Tiger's workout. Here is what we found Tiger is a gym rat. He works out between 3 and 4 hours every day at the gym when he is not competing. Cardio--Start 30 minutes of some kind of cardiovascular warm-up exercise such as pedaling on a stationary bike. Stretch 30-40 minute session of total-body stretching, focusing on the muscles of the legs and trunk. Article Continues Below A trainer assists him with physical therapy, manipulating his body, everything from the kneecaps to the vertebrae are prepared for battle. Cardio More cardio--we couldn't find out how long for this part of the routine. But we did find out, according to Golf Digest, that In the gym, he varies the machines he uses for this, including a treadmill, a stair stepper and a climbing machine that focuses on his upper body. Tiger also "loves to run, and will jog usually three to four miles, and almost always on grass," according to the source who spoke to Golf Digest, on condition of anonymity. Strength Training Next, he does strength training. He varies between high-intensity and lower intensity days. On the high-intensity days, Tiger lifts 80 percent of his maximum weight. He uses the bench press, the shoulder press and squats and perhaps others. Tiger is believed by people who have seen him work out to bench-press about 300 pounds. He does heavy lifting in sets of six to eight repetitions. Tiger's Special Secret In addition to a typical weight routine most of us do, Tiger does something extra that is special--- he tries to do various exercises in movements and positions that mimic the golf swing. For example, he might do a golf swing while lifting dumbbells. The Core Tiger uses various tools to help him develop a strong core. You need a strong core to swing the club as viciously as he does. He sometimes handles light weights while also trying to balance himself on a gym ball. Don't try this without a professional trainer and a doctor's slip. Unreal. Cool Down and Stretch Again at least 30 to 40 minutes of stretching. Sources: Golf Digest, MSNBC |
