Lie on your back with both knees bent and the soles of the feet flat on the floor. Extend your arms out to either side, also flat on the floor.
Move your feet slightly wider than hip-width apart, then let both knees fall gently to the right. As your knees move down try to keep your left shoulder moving toward the floor.
Take 5 deep breaths and then, engaging the abdominal, roll the knees back to center, the kneecaps facing the ceiling. Repeat other side.
You will find after golfing one side is tighter and more restricted than the other; repeat the exercise twice on that side to rebalance the entire body.
