Golf Tips: Cross training your golf swing
Step 2: How to cross train your golf swing
From The Speed Stick, to The Swing Fan, to the Momentus Swing Trainer, etc, there are a number of training aids out on the market that promise to increase your swing speed. While any of these individual devices can indeed help you make speed increases, you don't necessarily need to spend the money on any of them to make progress. There are cheap and even free alternatives available to you - like making swings with a towel wrapped around the club head, or swinging with your driver head cover still on the driver.
Regardless of what you use in your training, I find that you'll get the best results if you do a variety of things to cross-train your swing for speed. For example, you'll experience bigger gains faster by synergistically combining things like weight resistance, wind resistance, band isometric exercises, etc.
