I'm 64 and played lots of sport and did large of exercise without warming up or cooling down until i was in my late 20s!! Im very inflexible despite having a pretty good stretching routine now. It really affects my ability to rotate and get a decent backswing.

[@DigitalGolfandTennisDoc]

There is a generic piece of flexibility that cannot be changed. If you feel that you reached a stopping point then you should continue for maintenance but also seek a golf instructor who understands modifying the swing to fit you

Thanks. 66 and never stretched. I'm going to start this and let you know how I do. I'm a 6 and have lost distance and height. We'll see.

Never too late to start! I have some cool programs in the works too you may be interested in. I’ll announce when ready

What if you’ve had a L3-5 fusion?

[@DigitalGolfandTennisDoc]

It doesn’t prohibit you but will change the motion for a lot of them. Assuming fusion is set and restrictions are lifted. Maybe want to talk to your local PT

[@skigolfmike]

@@DigitalGolfandTennisDoc it’s been over 2 years since the fusion and I was released by the Dr a long time ago.
