Best golf training aids: Health, recovery and biometric feedback tools

Taking care of your body is a must for golf longevity.

It goes without saying, but the better shape you’re in, the more golf you can play and the better you can become. Here at Golfweek, we value taking care of our bodies to play the game we love so much, and we want to help you do the same.

Whether it be fitness, stretching or recovery, we’ve curated a list for you to take the next step towards better golf. Throughout the month of August, we’re curating products that can help you train for and practice better golf.

Check back later this week for best speed training and home-practice equipment.

We occasionally recommend interesting products, services, and gaming opportunities. If you make a purchase by clicking one of the links, we may earn an affiliate fee. Golfweek operates independently, though, and this doesn’t influence our coverage
