My idea of a heavy workout is lifting my tray and giving it back to the waitress in the clubhouse once I've eaten

Sorry didn't realise discussions weren't allowed on a discussion board!
On a serious note, it's not really bickering, there's no name calling or anything, and it's on topic.
As the starter of this topic, I thought you'd be interested in fitness training, and actually hoped my comments were useful.

I'll call it quits on this topic after this, unless anyone specifically wants some info.
I really wasn't trying to stir or have a silly argument, I was actually trying to educate and be educated myself. Golf fitness training is actually something I am very interested in and passionate about. It's not currently what I do for a living, but I have studied the TPI and CHEK courses, and been involved with a couple of other guys who are relatively big names in the field. Its something I am planning to get into much more in the future and eventually do it for a living.
Hence why when the odd fitness topic does come up, I do like to get stuck in!

On a slight tangent... kettle bells for golf, any good routines online. I am planning on using one in my training once my mancave is completed

Perhaps not to be done in the mancave though!

i personally think kettle bell throws are not gud, BUT this is just MY OPINION. This is a recipe for pulled muscles and damaging ur self. Its not under control i think. I wouldnt recommend this. Have u looked on some of the fitness websites out there or youtube for kettle bell circuits or compund moves with them

Not good for the putting green either...

A valid point. Whilst I don't personally think they are outright dangerous, there is an important caveat.
I think what should be mentioned, and this applies generally to most specific, and high speed\power exercises, is that a good base level of strength and flexibility should be developed first.

Probably best done at the local cricket\bowls club, just to be safe!

i do a lot of kettlebell training and well worth having a session or two with a kettlebell trainer to get the right technique using lower weights before building the weight up. also will get you a variety or programmes drawn up to follow
