⛳️ Fix your golf swing with these 4 physical therapist approved tips!
1. Thoracic spine rotation:
improving mobility through your mid back can be the difference between a powerful swing and missing by a long shot. Focus on improving your thoracic mobility with book opener stretch and resisted rotations.
2. Lower body strength:
A good golf swing starts with a strong lower body, as you need to be able to generate force from the ground up. Start with lunges, deadlifts, and single leg bridges to build lower body power.
3. Shoulder stability:
Your rotator cuff works hard to stabilize your shoulder during your swing, and helps you control your swing for maximum power generation. Focus on internal and external rotation to reduce injury and prime your shoulder for golf.
4. Hip mobility:
The most under looked aspect of a good golf swing is hip mobility. You need to be able to rotate through your hips efficiently, or you end up putting stress through your low back in the process. Add the hip 90/90 stretch and banded hip internal rotations to your routine to address this.
While these are great starting points, a personalized physical therapy assessment and plan can help you achieve your goals and improve any movement deficits.
