A golf training device for use in a glove or under the ball of the foot or under the heel, which includes pressure sensors, a visual display which is flexibly connected to the sensors for adjusting the position to suit the wearer, and a controller programmed to provide visual feedback to indicate if the pressure is appropriate or not. For a glove the sensors are located on the palm at the junction with the first three fmgers. There are two or more sensors and for each sensor the controller can display by an appropriately coloured LED that the pressure detected by the sensor is too light, appropriate or too tight. For a shoe the sensors are located under the ball of the foot or the heel and the LEDs indicate whether the weight is appropriately on the ball of the foot or on the heel.
