GOLF BIOMECHANICS

For anyone taking part in golf (whether professionally, semi-professionally or simply for leisure), we can help you develop the skills, strength and fitness necessary for your activity.

An example I like to use is the following: A golf swing is all about torso (trunk) rotation, but if you're like most people, you may struggle to rotate your torso fully. Reduced rotation through the torso when swinging a club means less inertia (speed), resulting in a golfer who needs to generate club speed by swinging more with his/her arms. This often means dragging the face of the club across the ball, resulting in a slice.

Rather than trying to change your stance to improve the shot, we'd concentrate on improving torso flexibility to increase your rotation, creating an easier, more fluid swing. This will result in more power with less effort.

Any skills-development/training programme we write is based on an initial physical assessment, during which we determine where your muscular strengths and weaknesses lie and assess the quality of your basic movement patterns. This way, the exercises recommended for you are very specific to both your sport and your own current physical condition, ensuring that ultimately, your movements are efficient and effective, making you a better golfer.

How you benefit:

• improve your athletic ability
• experience greater mobility through your swing
• improve your physical fitness to achieve consistency throughout your round
• enjoy a body that can handle more physical stressors without injury
