00:00:05.115 --> 00:00:07.685
This drill is lean the wrong way. Um,

1
00:00:07.825 --> 00:00:12.365
so lean the wrong way is a impact and a follow through position drill for

2
00:00:12.365 --> 00:00:17.125
golfers who tend to have more of a hip drop or more of a buckle through

3
00:00:17.125 --> 00:00:18.285
impact. So, um,

4
00:00:18.355 --> 00:00:22.765
there's a subset of golfers who tend to have usually accompanies more of kind of

5
00:00:22.765 --> 00:00:27.165
a lean back and arm throw. Um, but it can be more of a a,

6
00:00:27.545 --> 00:00:29.805
it usually accompanies arm throw. Um,

7
00:00:29.865 --> 00:00:33.645
but it's either with a lean back or with kind of a lunge forward. Uh,

8
00:00:33.665 --> 00:00:37.765
but you'll see a little bit more of kind of this dip dive kind of like this.

9
00:00:38.145 --> 00:00:41.285
And oftentimes it will actually, uh,

10
00:00:41.745 --> 00:00:46.485
go further away from the golf wall than, than is,

11
00:00:46.665 --> 00:00:47.345
uh, recommended.

12
00:00:47.345 --> 00:00:51.165
So it'll go more in kind of the outside of hip and kind of drive down like this.

13
00:00:51.625 --> 00:00:52.305
And the,

14
00:00:52.305 --> 00:00:56.445
the interesting thing about that pattern is it usually lacks a lot of movement

15
00:00:56.905 --> 00:00:59.885
in the spine so it doesn't have a whole lot of side bend.

16
00:01:00.265 --> 00:01:03.045
And basically instead of getting side bend, um,

17
00:01:03.105 --> 00:01:07.765
and distributing it through the whole spine and into the hip, uh, all of the,

18
00:01:08.065 --> 00:01:12.885
the side bend is coming more in the, the hip and the SI joint. Uh, so it can,

19
00:01:12.905 --> 00:01:14.605
it can be a really painful, uh,

20
00:01:14.745 --> 00:01:17.725
or it can create the situation where you can injure your lower back.

21
00:01:18.545 --> 00:01:23.285
So it's also one of the ones that tends to cause really

22
00:01:23.455 --> 00:01:27.365
diggy divots or deep divots. So, um, when you drop down like that,

23
00:01:27.465 --> 00:01:29.845
it lowers the low point and often, uh,

24
00:01:30.125 --> 00:01:34.045
companies a little bit more of a that throw and then pull in on the way through.

25
00:01:34.385 --> 00:01:38.325
So lean the wrong way is to try to get a little bit of hip height.

26
00:01:38.465 --> 00:01:41.645
If we look at three D, um, a lot of good uh,

27
00:01:41.645 --> 00:01:45.405
ball strikers are going to have their pelvis actually higher than where they

28
00:01:45.405 --> 00:01:49.485
were at setup. Um, so to feel it, we're gonna do the lean the wrong way drill.

29
00:01:49.665 --> 00:01:52.485
So here we go. We're gonna get into, uh,

30
00:01:52.625 --> 00:01:55.645
set up position and then we're just gonna stand up.

31
00:01:55.735 --> 00:01:59.005
We're gonna turn and face the target. And so when I say lean the wrong way,

32
00:01:59.005 --> 00:02:02.365
what we're gonna do is we're gonna push our hips towards the golf ball.

33
00:02:02.545 --> 00:02:05.205
Now this is gonna feel for some of you,

34
00:02:05.205 --> 00:02:08.925
like your pelvis is right over your feet or even more over your toes.

35
00:02:08.925 --> 00:02:11.645
It's gonna feel like you're leaning the wrong way.

36
00:02:12.025 --> 00:02:15.365
Now what we're gonna do is we're gonna try and isolate the hip.

37
00:02:15.365 --> 00:02:18.205
So we're gonna keep that hip high in that position,

38
00:02:18.265 --> 00:02:21.325
and then we're going to curl over that hip to get down to impact.

39
00:02:21.625 --> 00:02:25.165
Now we're gonna do it without letting the foot go all the way up.

40
00:02:25.905 --> 00:02:30.645
So now the, that was kind of, we'll call that the entry level version.

41
00:02:31.065 --> 00:02:32.645
So now a little bit more advanced.

42
00:02:32.945 --> 00:02:36.485
So now we're going to get into this position and we're gonna turn,

43
00:02:36.505 --> 00:02:40.685
but we're gonna try to keep that foot flat. So as we go to lean the wrong way,

44
00:02:40.995 --> 00:02:45.845
it's more by doing a crunch or more by pulling this hu hip up rather than

45
00:02:45.845 --> 00:02:46.965
lifting the foot up.

46
00:02:47.105 --> 00:02:50.725
So I'm doing a little bit of a crunch so that my pelvis is feeling like it's

47
00:02:50.725 --> 00:02:53.445
going this way. Foot is still close to ground. There we go,

48
00:02:53.445 --> 00:02:54.365
feeling my core working.

49
00:02:54.705 --> 00:02:58.445
And now I'm going to side bend in the opposite direction, kind of like this.

50
00:02:58.625 --> 00:03:00.085
And from the down the line camera,

51
00:03:00.305 --> 00:03:04.325
you'll see that the pelvis is a little bit closer to neutral and that the curve

52
00:03:04.325 --> 00:03:07.205
is happening more through the middle of my spine, um,

53
00:03:07.345 --> 00:03:10.765
as opposed to getting into kind of this position here. Um,

54
00:03:11.025 --> 00:03:15.845
so some golfers have a tendency to really keep their spine braced and tight. Um,

55
00:03:15.865 --> 00:03:19.525
and it prevents some of this, uh, movement that helps create some of the,

56
00:03:19.905 --> 00:03:24.325
the better geometry, better low point control, um, better flat spot control.

57
00:03:25.235 --> 00:03:25.545
Okay,

58
00:03:25.545 --> 00:03:29.405
so this is more of a isolated position and we're just gonna work our way back

59
00:03:29.465 --> 00:03:32.365
in, into some nine to threes trying to recreate that same position.

60
00:03:32.745 --> 00:03:36.645
So one more time, keeping the the foot flat.

61
00:03:36.745 --> 00:03:39.885
So I'm going to hike the hip up to get into this position.

62
00:03:40.225 --> 00:03:43.365
And now this is kind of the, the more advanced way where I'm,

63
00:03:43.625 --> 00:03:45.685
I'm facing the golf ball, instead of facing the target,

64
00:03:45.945 --> 00:03:50.725
I'm going to hike that hip up and now I'm going to bend over that crunch

65
00:03:50.905 --> 00:03:52.885
to get down to the golf ball. For some of you,

66
00:03:52.885 --> 00:03:55.205
this is gonna feel like you're very, uh,

67
00:03:55.315 --> 00:03:58.445
bent over and for some of you this is gonna feel like you're very tall and

68
00:03:58.725 --> 00:04:01.285
vertical. Really depends on what part of your body, um,

69
00:04:01.515 --> 00:04:04.685
your brain pays attention to. So let's get back into that,

70
00:04:05.795 --> 00:04:07.965
lean the wrong way, then get to impact.

71
00:04:08.115 --> 00:04:10.085
That gets to the feeling of my pelvis being high.

72
00:04:10.345 --> 00:04:14.565
And now we're just gonna do like a little, um, almost delivering go kind of a,

73
00:04:15.355 --> 00:04:19.645
like a arm swing trying to preset and feel that crunch position.

74
00:04:20.865 --> 00:04:23.445
And of course we can get a little bit more dynamic with it.

75
00:04:23.785 --> 00:04:28.365
So now we're gonna use that position there as the reference

76
00:04:28.555 --> 00:04:30.125
feel a really good crunch.

77
00:04:30.225 --> 00:04:32.685
And now we're gonna do a little bit of a nine to three,

78
00:04:33.795 --> 00:04:37.325
kind of just getting back as close as we can to that position.

79
00:04:37.385 --> 00:04:41.165
And you saw there, um, lost a little balance in the follow through.

80
00:04:41.465 --> 00:04:43.325
If you're really exaggerating this, um,

81
00:04:43.785 --> 00:04:46.445
you'll feel a lot more weight shift to your heels. 'cause uh,

82
00:04:46.445 --> 00:04:51.125
typically even if you go, um, well if you go into your heels this way,

83
00:04:51.435 --> 00:04:55.405
what'll happen is you, you run out of a range of motion, you kind of get stuck.

84
00:04:55.785 --> 00:04:58.845
Um, so while you'll be going into your heel heels,

85
00:04:58.875 --> 00:05:03.045
what you'll feel is that you can actually rotate through and not get stuck at

86
00:05:03.045 --> 00:05:03.645
impact position.

87
00:05:03.645 --> 00:05:06.205
That's probably a better way of saying it than the initial direction there.

88
00:05:06.675 --> 00:05:10.165
Okay, so let's do another one of those little nine to threes.

89
00:05:10.175 --> 00:05:12.325
Let's reset where we're trying to get to.

90
00:05:12.715 --> 00:05:16.005
There's kinda that feeling of tall crunch space,

91
00:05:20.015 --> 00:05:24.005
kinda sorta something like that. So as I'm getting this feeling, um,

92
00:05:24.185 --> 00:05:26.565
now I can try to add a little bit more speed.

93
00:05:26.625 --> 00:05:28.125
Now the speed might feel different.

94
00:05:28.125 --> 00:05:31.805
Typically if I get more into this little buckle and drop,

95
00:05:32.035 --> 00:05:35.605
then my speed is really coming from the arms and it's, uh,

96
00:05:35.605 --> 00:05:39.005
there's like this feeling of kind of like falling into impact.

97
00:05:39.035 --> 00:05:40.765
This is gonna have more of a feeling of,

98
00:05:40.945 --> 00:05:43.525
of bracing or of pushing away from the golf ball.

99
00:05:43.525 --> 00:05:47.405
So you're gonna feel a lot more space. Okay, so got that

100
00:05:49.405 --> 00:05:51.695
lean the wrong way, kind of crunch feel.

101
00:05:52.355 --> 00:05:54.775
Now we're gonna do a little bit more like a 10 to two.

102
00:05:59.545 --> 00:06:00.525
And when I do that,

103
00:06:00.785 --> 00:06:04.965
I'm gonna feel a lot more space for my arms to come through and a lot more

104
00:06:05.195 --> 00:06:08.125
ability to get the wipe going through impact.

105
00:06:08.155 --> 00:06:12.965
What often happens is if golfers get that rib cage down and into the golf ball,

106
00:06:12.965 --> 00:06:15.685
the arm gets blocked and then it has to throw, um,

107
00:06:15.825 --> 00:06:18.405
or it's helping the arm throw,

108
00:06:18.425 --> 00:06:21.005
but we see those two kind of come working in a pair.

109
00:06:21.385 --> 00:06:25.765
So if you're struggling with either the arm throw or you're struggling with, uh,

110
00:06:26.075 --> 00:06:30.085
kind of the, the bracing and the pelvis height on the way through, um, try this,

111
00:06:30.085 --> 00:06:33.445
lean the wrong way to get the turtle shell or get the abs feeling a little bit

112
00:06:33.605 --> 00:06:35.645
more solid through the release And impact,

113
00:06:46.905 --> 00:06:48.325
not bad. Little hook wind today.
