Power can be elusive to golfers. Is true power generated
through technique, strength or something more?
Every golfer wants more power,
more distance, more consistency.
1. Spinal Rotation. Every time you swing the
golf club, you rotate around your spine. Increase your spinal rotation and a
new sense of power will be released.
2. Core Based Exercises. When you have good core stability,
the muscles in your pelvis, lower back, hips and abdomen work in harmony.
The
core is the power zone. A well-developed core allows for improved force output,
increased neuromuscular efficiency, and decreased incidence of overuse
injuries.
3. Plyometrics. Plyometrics are any exercise where the muscle is
contracted eccentricly then immediately, concentricly.
Mean driving distance
increased 4.3% for the combined training group, with mean club head speed
increasing 1.5%.
Once you incorporate these 3 techniques into your exercise
program, you’ll never be disgruntled about driving distance or power generation
again.
