[ golF ] If you want to keep your golf game sharp over the winter, check out Olympic Physical Therapy in Wakefield, which has a special golf Performance program that starts with an evaluation of your swing and then targets the muscle groups that may be underperforming or impeding your form. exercises aim to improve both flexibility and golf strength; patients have included members of the Narragansett and CCRI school golf clubs as well as local USgA Tour players Brad Faxon, Patrick horgan III and Brett Quigley.

adjust to the game’s occasionally quirky rules quickly. As with soccer, the big fields mean plenty of space for game play, so you won’t be constantly worrying about running into walls or having long bombs bounce off the ceiling.
[ biking ] You’ll find some diehard bikers out on the roads even in the dead of winter, but if you want to avoid black ice and the risk of frostbite, NBX Bikes in Narragansett is offering yoga, fitness and wind-trainer classes for bikers at Busy Body Studios in Wakefield while awaiting the grand opening of The Studio at NBX, its planned on-site training facility. All classes are led by world champion triathlete Amy Rice. The windtrainer classes are the most targeting to cycling: bikes are attached to a stationary mount that can be adjusted for varying degrees of resistance. “It’s a good alternative to spin class because you’re on your own bike and getting a sustained workout, plus we do some isolated leg drills and get off the bike for core work,” says Rice. Classes are $20, plus rental of the wind trainer for those who don’t have their own. You also can tone your biking muscles with a spin class at Luxe Fitness in Westerly and Wakefield, which offer a 45-minute Spin express class that cyclists will love.
