Late 40s age, workout pretty hard every day. Cardio, core, and weights. Work with a trainer once a week. I also eat relatively healthy. Still have aches and pains after a round or after a couple hour range session. I took off 2 years from the game. I warm up before each time out and practice or play 3 times a week. Left shoulder, mid-back, chest always are sore. No pain but really sore. Working on getting my shoulder under my chin this year and firing the hips through on the downswing. I used to be able to turn my shoulder about 100-110 degrees if I wanted to now I'm fighting to get it to 90. 2 years off from golf has really changed my flexibility in that specific move. I don't mind practicing and working on my swing but the aches and pains are really getting annoying.
My trainer isn't a golfer but is willing to research and develop golf specific exercises. I'm not so interested in that as full body exercises should cover anything golf related. We concentrate on general physical fitness with my personal goal of completing the "Murph Challenge" in a year. (You can look that up if you are interested)
Any advice? I'm adverse to pharmaceuticals.
