Swing
By Mike

A better golf swing is inevitable…for any
golfer, with the right approach. It doesn’t matter age or ability.
It’s a reality…and can happen very quickly!
To achieve a
better golf swing, a golfer needs to realize just how physically
demanding it is on the human body. You are swing an object (golf
club) at up to 100 mph. This puts a tremendous amount of pressure on
the joints, tendons, ligaments and muscles.
If these tissues
of the body are weak, tight or brittle they will rupture and
eliminate you from playing golf indefinitely. If it doesn’t, your
performance will pay the price. The outcome either way is not what
you want…but will happen without an emphasis on strengthening these
areas.
Along with strengthening comes stretching. Stretching
muscles to attain a better golf swing is common among most golfers.
Although it is common, most golfers don’t stretch. Why? Because it
is viewed as ‘work’. But if it were viewed as a form of golf
improvement it would be a different story.
Swing mechanics
cannot be improved if your golf specific strength and flexibility
are ignored. It is an impossibility, unless you compensate for this
lack of capabilities in your golf swing. Teaching pros are now
starting to realize there is a definite connection between golf
swing mechanics and fitness.
But that’s where the BIG gap
is. Between instruction and physical fitness. This is the ultimate
combination for total golf performance and I have been preaching it
for several years now. When your physical capabilities are improved,
your golf swing mechanics become much easier to achieve.
The
next time you visit your teaching pro, to achieve a better golf
swing, you’ll be able to do what he/she wants and the desired
outcome will be achieved. This outcome is inevitable when you get
your body moving better. Your golf swing mechanics fall into place.
It will only be a matter of time when all golfers will
approach their golf improvement this way. It’s the only way that
will warrant lasting results and ultimately a better golf
swing.
