Why it matters for golf
Pressing a cable from a staggered stance forces the core to resist rotation while the arm delivers force. That is the order golf wants, stable trunk first, fast limbs second.
Coaching cues
- Staggered stance, brace before the press.
- Press straight out to full extension.
- Hips and shoulders stay square.
- Slow return, keep the trunk quiet.
Common faults
- Shoulders rotating with the press.
- Leaning away from the stack for leverage.
