External Rotation for Power, Speed, and Distance

Increase Power, Speed, and Distance…

If your trail elbow flies up in your backswing… you cast the club… you lose power, speed, and distance in your swing.

But it’s not your fault.

Simply trying to hold your elbow down won’t fix the issue.

Most people have rounded shoulders from sitting at a desk, or hunching over an iPad…

Rounded shoulders make it nearly impossible to get your trail shoulder into external rotation in your backswing… (This is why your elbow flies up. You have limited mobility, causing you to push the club out or cast.)

This exercise opens your shoulders back up after years of neglect.

When you first start, it may be difficult to get into external rotation and you won’t likely have much strength in this part of your shoulder.

Start small with this exercise and build up range of motion, then strength, then speed.

Having good external rotation of your shoulder lets you shallow the club, increasing your speed, to deliver a powerful swing through the golf ball.

Increase Rotational Strength

The golf swing is a complex movement…

Speed comes from the rotational strength in your core… but many people let their arms go wild.

The shoulder girdle has 19 muscle groups connecting your arm to your body.

It’s important to build up the stabilization muscles first, so your arms can stay in sync with your body, before you start trying to add anything extra to your swing.

Rotational Pull Downs and Lifts, rotating as you pull down and rotating as you lift… all while keeping your hands in front of your chest, strengthen the shoulder girdle and your rotational strength.

*Be sure to have one handle in each hand to strengthen both sides of your body.

Improve Your Balance, Stability, & Speed…

Increase Overhead Reach

Improve Range of Motion and Overhead Reach…

Rounded shoulders are usually caused from a strong, tight chest pulling your shoulders forward.

We tend to work on our chests more than our backs, which leads to an imbalance and strong, tight chest muscles pulling the shoulders forward.

Use this stretch to relax the Pec Major which is pulling your shoulders forward and the Pec Minor which is making it harder for you to reach overhead. Immediately get a greater range of motion in your shoulders.

Best Father’s Day Gifts

I don’t believe in gifts for the sake of a commercial holiday. I believe in gifts for the sake of creating a connection. Commercial holidays are merely a reminder to connect with the special people in your life.

In a gift, the giver reveals something about themselves as does the receiver.

You see, gift giving is as much about the giver as it is the receiver.

The best gift is sharing the discovery of something new..

Whether you’re sharing a part of yourself, reaching out to find a kindred spirit…
Giving the gift of something new the recipient has already spotted but hasn’t taken the leap of exploring yet…
Or you find something altogether new and exciting for you both to explore together.

Below is a list of great gift ideas:

Round of Golf – Discover a new track or take a trip down memory lane with a round at an old course that has special meaning to you.
Your Favorite Book – If you enjoyed it and it helped you, sharing is caring.
Personalized Accessories – Personalized Towel, Hat, Ball Marker, Golf Balls… there’s virtually no limit to what you can put your name on.
Putting Mat – Putting mats are perfect for working on your game away from the course; at home, at the office, anywhere.
Tornado Tees – Sure to be the hottest new tee on the market, Tornado Tees has been the #1 Tee for World Long Driver Competitors since 2018 but is just now available to the general public… Be one of the first to discover something new. Plus, who doesn’t want more distance? (Click Here to Learn More »)

Remember, Father’s Day isn’t just about Dads… It’s about connecting with those who helped guide you along the way.

Connect with Dad this Father’s Day.
