Case

A study by the University of Missouri in the United States shows that the mortality rate of stroke or heart disease among elderly people who are used to playing golf is 10% lower than that of those who do not play golf. David, 68, insists on playing golf after retirement. His blood pressure and blood lipids have returned to normal, and his energy is comparable to that of young people. After playing a round of golf, you need to walk about 6 miles and consume 1,400 calories. This moderate walking can not only effectively prevent excessive adrenaline production and reduce the risk of arterial vascular disease, but also accelerate blood circulation and make the heart work more powerfully. Long-term persistence is like a gentle and lasting “maintenance” for the cardiovascular system, effectively enhancing cardiopulmonary function and becoming the health guardian of the elderly.

When 21-year-old Yin Ruoning first played in the LPGA, she was frustrated by an injury and almost gave up. But the training of golf taught her to focus on the present and train her mentality through scenario simulation. Golf is full of uncertainty. Different winds, grasses, swing angles, strengths, and subtle differences in timing all affect the results. Yin Ruoning used this characteristic to constantly simulate scenarios in training, imagining her own shots at critical moments, and practicing repeatedly until muscle memory was formed. In her first year in the LPGA, she wanted to withdraw from the double blow of a wrist injury and poor performance. But the encouragement of her family and friends allowed her to regain her confidence, accept the ups and downs of her state, focus on every swing, and believe that she can do her best. Now she has risen from 482nd in the world to the top, and with the Grand Slam championship, golf has become her “secret weapon” to hone her strong psychological quality.
