Your Golf Swing has to be able to do this!

All tour players do this in their golf swing and we're going to help you do it too what are we talking about we're talking about the hips leading the downswing how the lower body works first we clear the hips belt buckle to the Target and then whip the club head through the ball for incredible impact more speed and awesome ball striking every single T player has the correct sequencing throughout the shot and throughout the back but you have to be able to physically get there if you want to do this consistently and that isn't talked about enough today we're going to help you achieve that through three exercises and the drills and feels to take it into your swing so check out these swings and let's talk about exactly what you are trying to do in your swing you'll hear it all the time the hips leave the down swing kinematic sequencing The X Factor basically it's the ability to load and rotate going back and then for the body to sequence properly coming down so what you're going to find is that the legs fire first that then goes to the hips through the Torso the arms stay behind so you're in this powerful downswing position and then right at the end we unwind through the sequence release the club head and then you have the full power potential of your body in the go swing we generate Force Through the ground through the legs and all the big muscles we separate to create increase that stretch and work through the ball and then we deliver that energy into the ball okay it's also going to help you swing mechanics because if we start getting inefficient with our sequencing and the upper body wants to lead or go at the same time you're almost always going to pull the club over the plane and hit the out to in swing pattern so when you do this well you are essentially creating a well functioning machine every part of the body has its place in the swing when're not seeing inefficiencies and poor mechanics we're putting everything into the ball just like the best players in the world and that is why their ball striking is so consistent and why they hit the driver so far because here they are literally maxing out their potential matching it with equipment and seeing incredible levels of performance the cool thing is you can do it too and that is what we focus on in our gol wad workouts and today we're going to highlight three exercises and the three key areas that your body needs to be able to execute in order for you to do this well our first element and really the key Foundation to this is loading against the ground and being able to use the ground for Force creation so during the swing we transfer our weight we have those energy shifts and then we can use that into the ball so we get the lateral vertical and rotational forces to maximize the swing speed a great way to work on this where you are right now are lateral bounds okay so when we talk about using the ground it's your own body weight working against it to create those reaction forces and create movement with lateral bounds we have a dynamic movement pattern where you have to stabilize and really grab the ground to change direction okay so you're getting all of those forces just like you do in the swing in a simple motion that you really can do anywhere so to execute the lateral bounds we're looking to load our body weight against the ground and really engage through the foot as we loader the hip and then push to change direction as you can see here the body weight really does track over the lower body that is how you maintain your center of gravity and have the power and reaction forces to change direction you can start small and really focus in on the stability of the joints in the lower body but as you progress and as you become more Dynamic you can increase Force you can travel a longer distance and ensuring that you don't allow that body weight to go outside of your base of support this is why this transfers so well into the loading in your swing because if we maintain those positions and load over the lower body you can then use the big muscles in the legs into the ground to power your golf swing element number two is stretching and loading the muscles across the system so in your swing specifically in the upper body you're going to feel it through the lats and into the back you want to feel as though against the load of the lower body we're actually stretching the muscles to the end range so we then naturally get that change of Direction Through the stretch reflex just like this band when you stretch your muscle it wants to go back to its original position the more we can use that in the golf swing the more we're going to create an optimal position that then naturally fires down in that sequence that we're working through okay so being aware of this and executing this is extremely important it'll give you stability it'll give you awareness of your back swing position but also it's going to give you all of that stretch speed back into the ball an excellent movement here is the swing out pump drill so you can grab a pretty light band fix it up high and we're going to work in our golf posture okay so first of all as we just talked about we're going to allow the tension of the band to pull us into our swing position as it does we're getting all the way through the system focus on that load into the ground and how the hip rotates and then really elongate your stretch okay so right now I'm rotating around the spine my muscles are stretched and that means when I change that Direction they can function okay so we come down into our impact position there's a lot of tension now from that band into that lead side and that really allows me to use that stretch reflex of the muscle back into the ball now we're returning control so we get that awareness and then change direction so we've got the load we' got the stretch and we got that change of Direction all of a sudden you're already building up the capacity to execute this movement really well and yes with this you should work both sides because we want body symmetry even though we're not swinging in both directions the more that the body can actually execute these movements the greater your ability to function at a high level because your body is going to accept speed better it's going to improve rotation and you're going to be more durable into element number three and we complete the power Trifecta okay we're now looking at how vertical forces can be transferred into the rotation of the Swing to power up that ball strike because with element one really we were looking at those lateral forces how we move sideways and how we power ourself through stability into element two we really looked at the body's rotation around the spine stretching the musculature and delivering high level positions now we go into how in transition the best play is will lower into the ground and then push to rotate to the Target okay this is a hugely powerful movement that really does get the body sequencing correctly into the ball okay the more we can lower in that rotational pattern and then use the lateral the better our swing is going to be and the more power you have our movement here is the rotational box jump okay so many golfers will have to build up to this you can do it without a box you can work on your stability we have lots of different options but right now this is number one okay so with the lateral bounds we working sideways and pushing off the ground we then went into that rotational pattern now we combine those and add those vertical forces okay so as you execute this movement you're going to start more or less in your golf posture you should be in a jumping posture anywhere that means you're active Okay from here we really want to make sure we wind down into the ground so you get that torque you get that loading element into the hip into the big muscles and then as we use the lateral which is sideways rotational which is in the swing and the vertical to elevate we really do nail the power Tri fector and this is where you get your swing to those high level so we load down use your body weight and land solid okay we're going to rotate through that range of motion we want to land with both feet on the box and you want to be super stable when you do so okay so Elevate use your breath work rotate down and accelerate okay you really want to feel your feet grabbing the ground use your body weight to push up and around and that is how you execute this movement okay there's a few different ways to do it if you want to be a little bit more explosive you can do it without stepping down and you can go for that rebounding effect so you let you are using your body weight off the Box against the ground as quick as possible so we're going to work through three quick reps as we go okay use the ground maximize your speed potential and again you always work both sides you want the legs working well we want maximum power and we want to get the swing fired up so you can play your best golf so we've looked through the kinematic sequencing you understand what it takes to fire the hips first and get that toe level swing and we recommend that you do so I have trained these factors consistently over a long period of time to get my fastest swing speeds ever okay I'm not naturally a fast twitch athlete I'm a big dude but to get these mechanics correct in your swing makes it so much easier than trying to force Power onto the ball create wild shots and really be inefficient in your gol swing okay so the power Tri Vector lateral rotational and vertical these three movements are an excellent way to get started out you can combine them which we've given you sets and Reps for in the description but if you really want to go to the next level head over get you 7-Day free trial to the golf app so that you can golf strong sorry guys been training there got a little L of breath
