Do You Really Rotate in Golf?
False Thoracic Rotation in the Golf Swing
Are you really rotating in golf or do you have a "false" rotation?
What's a false rotation? Not rotating when we think we are.
Our arms and shoulders have great mobility and can keep moving while we are rotating. (See video below).
When we're rotating, we may be "thinking" we're rotating when truly it's our arms and shoulders doing the movement, not our spine.
This is what makes using theTrueTurnPro (TTP)so powerful. The TTP has what's called contralateral arms. These arms are what isolates your upper body and prevents you from using your arms and shoulders with the rotation. Genius, huh?!!
Now you can train your spine to work more efficiently (and stay healthier). Instead of using your low-back to rotate (which it's not made to even do that motion), you'll be training your thoracic spine to be more mobile and healthy. And yes our thoracic spine is made for rotation.
So many of us sit a lot during the day...whether it's at our desk, in the car, in meetings or wherever else you're sitting...we need help with thoracic rotation. We're never too old to start training that spine and keeping it healthy.
As a golfer, do you add rotational exercises in your workouts? If you don't, you are missing a big piece of training for golf.
Quite honestly, most people don't train with rotation in mind and you don't even need to play golf. EVERYBODY should be training rotationally regardless if you play!
Think about that friend you know (or maybe even yourself)...when you've been working in the yard and you reach for something at a weird angle and all of a sudden...
your back goes out!
What! That awful twinge! Nobody likes that feeling.
Guess what...this could have been prevented! When we train rotationally (and anti-rotationally) we strengthen our body in many different positions. This will help prevent that "back" issue down the road.
