· auto-generatedRight it's posture it's rotation and then it speed through the ball so that's a good golf swing right we're descending but shallow we h a really good distance that's a nice golf ship so why are these the best three cable exercises for compressing your irons because we are working directly on your posture stability and speed through the ball okay those are three key components to nailing your iron swing staying in the shot and hitting it with that compression and that flush feel to take a great divot and see your iron shots hitting the green way more often and before we get started remember a cable machine is great for these movements however you can also do them with a simple exercise band just about anyway the first exercise is the paloff Press here you're going to go into a split stance position which means the side of your body is working really hard to stay in position for your posture in the golf swing this is huge because as we turn there's a lot of force going on okay so from here you Center your torso you got neutral spine position you really sink into the big muscles of the leg and if you don't stabilize it's going to pull you in okay so you ankle yourself to the ground set your upper body and then from the chest we're going to press forwards as the weight gets further away from you it means there is more Force being applied to your body and then your core the whole of the upper body is getting stronger and more stable every single rep and yes we're always going to work both sides of the body you need symmetry you need durability and you want to be stable in every direction so fire the core stay neutral create more and more force in the upper body and nail your positioning and posture during your iron swing movement two is the t-spine press okay so here you're using the posture you're using the stability and now we go into a rotational pattern this is huge for your consistency and how you get through the ball and it really does feel good when you take it to the course as so we're going to take our golf posture again anchor to the ground fire the big muscles and fire the core we bring that stability from the POF press into this exercise from here we now stabilize and press away from the machine we turn around the spine hit that full range of motion and create Force as well okay so the lower body is staying still in this Movement we rotate around the spine is huge for your range of motion and how you create that rotation so these two movements really are a perfect combination if you want to be stable in your golf posture okay and then because the core is going to be more engaged and you can create rotational Force you're going to have more potential to create a stronger more stable swing that allows you to stay in the shot compress your IRS and hit it the way that you want to we've developed our posture we're way more stable the cars fired up now it's time to add that speed okay we're not talking flash speed or just pure swing speed we're talking about how your body sequences through the golf swing to deliver consistent force and a great strike okay for this we're going to use the step to rotational press okay so using the ground here is key and also staying in your post just to deliver force is going to help you feel really good with this exercise and with your golf swing we're going to start with feet together cable just about chest height we step into our golf posture fire the hips first just like you want to in your swing turn your core and chest to the Target and then fight okay so feet together step rotate and each time you go that a little bit faster okay the sequence is very important because if we try and do everything at once we really aren't transferring energy well that's what the sequence does okay if we go lower body first then fire the body we've already got all of this energy moving towards the weight we then deliver with the upper body okay so if we go full speed we really want to be aggressive with intent and precision okay so we step turn you can feel how the car is working you can feel how you push out of the ground and you can definitely feel how this is going to push your golf swing to the next level always work both sides even though you're not swinging in this direction because as we talked about before not only are you going to be more durable and have less injuries you're going to create more body symmetry and increase your ability to move well over time all right so your body's going to work better so your swing can work better too those your three exercises to compress your ions better almost immediately the results are undeniable and you will create a better golf swing the hardest part is get to the gym and getting it done we know everybody struggles at times to be consistent to get the workouts in and also to know what to do that is where you need the golf W app all right so join golfers all like this working on the game and working on the fitness all right and that's what you can do head over right now get yourself a 7-Day free trial get to work with all of our programs just like the daily conventional to put cables into your everyday Fitness so that your body improves you feel better and you have so much more to work with on the golf course that your scores are going down all right so talking about the golf course let's head back there right now and show you exactly why this helps you to compress your IR and what feels you need when you take it to the swing so we made it to the car and we're straight into the action okay really tough shot into the wind we got about 190 we're going to try and power a 6ine all right so compressing yours is extremely important into the wind downwind no wind all right because when you compress the ball which is when we hit the ball first then the turf to take that nice divot you're going to start to be really consistent with how you deliver the Loft okay because if sometimes you hit up on the ball sometimes you deloft it you're going to see massive differences between your distances okay that makes it really hard to play a good golf okay but technically what I'm trying to do in the swing is I'm trying to load in a stable position with that posture in mind and then really fire the core stay over the ball to come press it through impact okay here I'm in a really strong position to keep the club down stay down after impact and commit to the shot okay that's where the compression comes in that's where the exercises come in as well because they give you the physical capacity to achieve those positions so here I'm looking at middle of the green this is a tough shot if I really hit it flush we're getting there all day long all right so I set the face I set the body to the face and from here it's all of those things we talked about all right it's posture it's rotation and then it speed through the ball so that's a good golf swing all right we're descending but shallow we've hit a really good distance and we got a great shot now from the middle of the green if we now look at that swing down the line you're going to see the same things all right that solid rotation maintaining the posture and then really creating a speed through the ball okay so this is what you want to focus on in your swing think about the movements just did okay we got to be stable through the sides with the p of press we've got to be able to rotate around our posture which is the t-spine press and then we're going to sequence through the ball just like we do with the step to rotational press okay so those mechanics and the bod's changes help you to deliver that golf swing okay you can see the flag we're taking it right on the flag into the wind we got to hit this super solid we're going to get it to the green again that's a nice golf sh so with that strike even though it's into the wind we still got it up pin High we'll land on the green now we've got to put for Eagle because the body's good the swing's good and the strike is good all right this is what we do when you train you want to train effectively and then you can take it to the C and play better golf all right you're also going to feel better look better have more energy that's why we train the way that we do all right so appreciate you checking out the video like we said in the middle
