Cardiogolf 1000 Practice Swing Challenge

The challenge is straightforward-simply make 1000 practice swings, 30 swings a day, during the month to improve your swing technique and increase clubhead speed.  You don’t need to go to the driving range or golf course, you can simply make practice swings in your garage or living room at home a few minutes a day (just make sure that you don’t whack the ceiling or walls!)

If you don’t have enough room to swing a regular club, use the ‘Shortee Practice Training Club’ by GolfGym.  Click here for more information. 

On-Course Tip-Bend From Your Hip Sockets

A common problem among high-handicappers and even elite golfers is a lack of mobility in the pelvis and hip area from hours of sitting and lack of activity.

To maximize your full potential in the golf swing, you must have the ability to take your joints and muscles through their full range of motion. Performing exercises that focus on muscles that are chronically tight will help your become more efficient in your golf swing.

Learning to set up properly is the key to a better swing.

Bend From Your Hip Sockets

• Stand in a shoulder width with your spine straight, holding onto a golf club.
• Bend from your hip sockets as you keep your spine straight and set the clubhead on the ground.
• Add a bit of knee flex.
• Let your arms hang naturally as you grip the club.
• Your weight should be evenly distributed between your heels and your toes.

Off-Course Fitness Tip-Hip and Pelvic Tilt: Test measure range of motion in hips and low back

This test measures the range of motion in your lower back and hips and reveals your capacity to engage your abs and gluteus muscles. To transfer power from your lower body to your upper body in the golf swing, the ability to control your pelvis is imperative for power in your swing and limiting the chances of injury to your lower back. Low test results may also be related to S-posture, loss of posture and lack or rotation.
