Could you provide a little more specific details on exactly how to perform these exercises. Vicki has given us some excellent stretches... do you have any others that might be good for hips, shoulders, and/or S.I. function? I have talked to several golfers that have problems with the S.I. joint. Usually the right, for right handers. lagster View Public Profile Send a private message to lagster Find all posts by lagster
