Influencer Carly Booth in Two-Piece Workout Geat Does "Putting Practice"

Carly Booth is at putting practice – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post the golfer shows off her swing while getting ready for competition. "Putting practice using my @puttoutgolf making sure my head is over the ball. #putting #puttinggreen #puttingdrills #golf," she captioned the Instagram video. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits. 

Golf is obviously Carly's main form of fitness. After the gym you can find her on the course, "Perhaps hitting some balls, doing some short game, then going to play nine holes," she says. A comprehensive review published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that golf's health benefits are extensive, including mind, body, and even lifespan. Benefits include improved longevity, decreased risk of developing heart disease or suffering a stroke, good mental health, and improved strength and balance.

According to Carly, mindset is key when it comes to golf. "I would say more than the physical attributes, you need a good and positive mindset. You need belief. You need to be dedicated. I guess that's the same in all sports," she told Best Fit.

Carly hits the gym daily. "I usually workout for an hour, before heading to practice," she told Women & Golf. I believe it's how you train that is important. Training in a way that doesn't overload your muscles. Yes, you need to be strong for golf, but you also need to be supple. I personally love to train and do a lot of cardio"

"What's your one workout or move that is an essential part of your weekly routine in relation to your golf swing?" asked Best Fit. "Any kind of rotational movements are great for the golf swing but also anything that helps you develop your power," she responded. 

Carly was a swimmer growing up. "I swam for so many years and my best stroke was butterfly, which is the hardest one, so that gave me a lot of power," she told Best Fit. Swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity, according to the CDC. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well.
