- Anything that strengthens my hands/forearms
* http://www.powerballs.com/
* raquetball
* weights
- Running/Biking makes it easier to swing hard/fast and everything feels more stable. I try to mix in some speed work and cross training with sports like raquetball
- Stretching
- Equipment fitting (still working on this with the driver)

I'm not sure how much distance was gained; it depends how out of shape I was before! The biggest gains are noticed towards the end of the round, but I would conservatively guess between 5-15 yards depending on the club.

The equipment fitting hasn't necessarily added distance I didn't have before, but it's helped improve my technique and increase the consistency of the length of my shots. I expect to add a little distance once I find the correct shaft/loft combination with my driver.
