If you've seen Anika Sorenstam this year as compared to 3 years ago, the obvious difference is her fitness regimen which includes a rigorous weight training program. Most of us wait until we start the golf season to start an exercise program. Bad move! Why take 6 weeks of playing time to get in shape? Start walking at least 30 minutes every other day to get your legs in shape. Also, start a weight training program to work out each muscle group at least twice a week.
