by simply getting a bit more active and cutting out some of the foods and drinks I&#8217;ve had, or reducing the amount of them anyway, I was able to drop thirteen pounds\u00a0relatively easily.\u00a0 So I&#8217;m going to keep it up and see where this takes me.<\/p>\n<p>But besides the obvious health benefits, one of\u00a0my hopes is that\u00a0there is some parallel between my weight and my handicap\u00a0&#8211; both of them dropping.\u00a0 And I don&#8217;t see any reason this\u00a0wouldn&#8217;t happen.\u00a0 By losing weight I would think this would help to sharpen the technique\u00a0for a golf swing.\u00a0 If the body mass is cut down (and by that,\u00a0I mean the gut shrinks) naturally you would have to figure the swing would simply become more smooth.\u00a0 It doesn&#8217;t stop there though.\u00a0\u00a0 By dropping weight\u00a0and improving my condition, I should have more energy for the round.\u00a0 So that feeling of fatigue that hits at some point on the back nine should be minimized, if not eliminated altogether.<\/p>\n<p>I shouldn&#8217;t be looking at this from only a golf standpoint, and I&#8217;m not.\u00a0 It&#8217;s important to take care of oneself, and I&#8217;ve neglected to do it as well as I should.\u00a0 But it&#8217;s never bothered me much before.\u00a0 However, recently I&#8217;ve started noticing that I get\u00a0tired a little faster and some formerly easy task become more of a chore.\u00a0 So if\u00a0this works, and\u00a0I can improve my health and golf game at the same time, then why not\u00a0keep up the effort?\u00a0 For the time being, overall health improving &#8211; golf game is yet to be seen.\u00a0 Stay tuned.<\/p>\n<p>Swing &#8217;til you&#8217;re happy!<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Off the top of my head, I can&#8217;t think of many sports (or many activities for that matter) where being out-of-shape can be beneficial.\u00a0 OK, there&#8217;s Sumo Wrestling.\u00a0 And there are belly-flop contests.\u00a0 But outside of those, I&#8217;m at a loss.\u00a0 So one would think that being in good physical condition could help with any [&hellip;]<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1999],"tags":[2044,917,22,19,2045,1170],"class_list":{"0":"post-1751","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-golf-life","7":"tag-getting-in-shape","8":"tag-golf-shape","9":"tag-golf-stinks","10":"tag-golfstinks","11":"tag-sumo-wrestling","12":"tag-weight-loss","13":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Will Dropping A Few Pounds Drop My Golf Score? &#8226;
