Build Up Torque For More Golf Swing Speed

The golf swing needs to build up a lot of torque

, separation and rotation to generate good golf swing speed, just the same as a car, we need horsepower to move our machine.

Many golfers are pursuing the ever increasing goal of more distance from the tee. More disctance = shorter approach shots, and shorter irons into greens to enhance accuracy and control. I know i prefer to be hitting an 8 iron into a par 4 as apposed to a 4 iron.

So how do build up our horsepower? By following a good golf training routine and we work on this torque between the lower body and the upper body to create maximum shoulder turn, a build up of torque and fast hip speed?

There are many golf exercises that will develop the separation of the torso from the hips to create torque for the golf swing, but today I want to show a great move that does this for one thing, but also it reduces Bi - lateral deficit and enhances the load and explode feeling of torque required for more golf swing speed.

We all have a dominant strong side of the body, and this greatly affects our ability to maintain correct swing paths and adhere to the kinetic chain mentioned earlier. The body must be in sync to perform and look its best, when we develop our weaker side CORRECTLY (not lifting more or doing more on the weaker side) we limit the dominance.

The golf swing is dynamic, thus for a workout for golf we must train in the same manner, no pausing repetitions, no slow counting. These are detrimental to muscle and nervous system development, attempt to perform moves with intensity force yet under control A key principle of golf training.

The exercise below is a good example to encompass these important golf workout necessities.

Alternating cable Lat pulldowns golf exercise;

Sat on the floor with both arm above grasing handles of either a cable rack or resistance band tubing positioned coreectly, using your back, draw your right elbow down with a little turn in the torso and squeeze the back lat muscles. Repeat on the left side, and alternate each arm. If you follow the link you will see exactly how to perform the golf exercise.

Give it a try, if you do not have a free motion machine as I am using, a regular dual cable pulley system will work, and if you train from home, you can use elastic tubing to replicate the move, however, the more tension the better.
