You have 2 legs and they can both help accomplish the weight shift. Sometimes, pushing with the trail foot is hard to do correctly, so to learn the movement you can use your front leg to pull. Take a furniture mover or frisbee and place it under your right foot. Try pulling that trail foot toward the lead foot without letting your upper body lunge forward.

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
This drill is called the ad-ductor Frisbee squeeze.
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:10,000
So what you'll see that I'm standing on, this is a furniture mover, but you can use a
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:16,000
a Frisbee, they have expensive things called valve slides, you can find on any sporting
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,000
goods or any fitness website.
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,000
But this is a super slider, you can get a home depot for about a package of four for about
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,000
10 bucks and they're very, very slippery, right?
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,000
They're for moving furniture.
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:32,000
So what you do is you place this under your trail foot or for right hand to go for
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,000
you're going to place it under your right foot just like so.
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:41,000
Now when you're rehearsing transition, you're going to do that little Jackson 5 hip bump.
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:46,000
And then what I want you to do is I want you to slide, it's like the old kind of Suzanne
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:51,000
Summer's thigh master, but you're going to slide this foot by pulling with your left
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,000
ad-ductor.
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:57,000
So I'm going to pull with this leg to bring my right leg towards it, like so.
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:05,000
Okay, that is what's going to happen between that Jackson 5 move right here and the
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,000
merry-go-round drill.
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,000
And that's what helps create that right foot bank that you've been working on in your
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,000
follow-through position.
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:19,000
So practicing this single leg slide move will then give you a feeling that when you take
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:25,000
it away, if I give my little bump and then I pull with this side, that's what helps create
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,000
the straightening of the leg.
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,000
It is not a locking out of the leg through impact.
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,000
It's a pulling with these ad-ductors to stabilize my pelvis and stabilize my core and transfer
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,000
energy to my arms.
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:43,000
So you can practice this, do the Jackson 5 move first and then practice pulling with the
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,000
ad-ductor first-be slide to build the awareness and the feeling of what the lower body is
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,000
going to do through the second phase of the downswing.
