Why it matters for golf

The Bench Press a powerful movement for the upper body that can dramatically increase your power through the ball.

The key is to follow the Loading in your program and always use a full range of motion.

How to perform

  1. Take the Bar off the Rack and position above your Sternum.
  2. Lower the Bar with control, loading the Elbows, down to touching the Sternum.
  3. Accelerate in the Concentric (upward) phase to complete the Rep.
  4. Stay in control of the movement, lock your shoulders to the Bench and focus on your breathing throughout your set.

Alternatives

The options here are equipment based as we can work from a Bodyweight element, the Push Up, through Bands/Cables and Dumbbells. Each offer different benefits and are used throughout our Programs.
