00:00:02.750 --> 00:00:06.690
alright looks like I just got the notice
00:00:06.690 --> 00:00:09.630
that we're up in streaming so happy to
00:00:09.630 --> 00:00:12.330
do another one of these fun live
00:00:12.330 --> 00:00:16.379
streaming events I figured a great topic
00:00:16.379 --> 00:00:18.150
for the start of the new year would be
00:00:18.150 --> 00:00:20.609
more fitness and offseason training
00:00:20.609 --> 00:00:25.039
since that seems to be the most common
00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:27.960
you know the most common resolution is
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:29.580
this new year I'm gonna get in great
00:00:29.580 --> 00:00:31.650
shape and for golfers this is alright
00:00:31.650 --> 00:00:34.260
this year I'm gonna get in great shape
00:00:34.260 --> 00:00:37.440
for my golf game so I figured let's
00:00:37.440 --> 00:00:41.850
discuss you know one of my other kind of
00:00:41.850 --> 00:00:44.129
passions which is fitness and let's
00:00:44.129 --> 00:00:45.719
discuss what we can do here in the
00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:48.629
offseason to hopefully improve our
00:00:48.629 --> 00:00:52.530
fitness so just like with the swing I
00:00:52.530 --> 00:00:54.360
always like to take kind of a global
00:00:54.360 --> 00:00:57.600
perspective and do some sort of analysis
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:00.420
on each student and look at the
00:01:00.420 --> 00:01:03.359
different categories so the different
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:05.339
categories of fitness that you could
00:01:05.339 --> 00:01:09.710
improve on primarily would be
00:01:09.710 --> 00:01:12.600
flexibility let's say core stability
00:01:12.600 --> 00:01:16.439
core activation balance posture training
00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:17.759
which is kind of more in that stability
00:01:17.759 --> 00:01:22.979
category strength power and endurance or
00:01:22.979 --> 00:01:27.299
and our cardio right now there are some
00:01:27.299 --> 00:01:28.619
things that are gonna be really helpful
00:01:28.619 --> 00:01:32.400
for your overall health like cardio for
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:41.759
example but when we're looking at when
00:01:41.759 --> 00:01:46.170
we're looking at the requirements for
00:01:46.170 --> 00:01:47.729
golf I would say that the place where I
00:01:47.729 --> 00:01:50.250
see most people miss out on and where
00:01:50.250 --> 00:01:51.930
you can get the biggest improvements are
00:01:51.930 --> 00:01:54.930
gonna be your flexibility your core
00:01:54.930 --> 00:01:58.950
stability core activation and balance
00:01:58.950 --> 00:02:00.689
training if you if you get a good
00:02:00.689 --> 00:02:03.210
foundation of those then you can try and
00:02:03.210 --> 00:02:09.709
add on some strength and some power I
00:02:09.709 --> 00:02:13.370
I'm here in San Jose on the
00:02:13.370 --> 00:02:15.349
westcoast but I just wanted to remind
00:02:15.349 --> 00:02:18.800
everyone if you want to just enter into
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:21.950
the chat window who's here where you're
00:02:21.950 --> 00:02:25.459
from and any question that you might
00:02:25.459 --> 00:02:28.849
have that'll be helpful and I'll try to
00:02:28.849 --> 00:02:30.650
answer them in real-time as best I can
00:02:30.650 --> 00:02:32.269
I've got a few kind of pre-loaded that
00:02:32.269 --> 00:02:36.650
emails came in the last couple days but
00:02:36.650 --> 00:02:39.410
anything that gets entered into the chat
00:02:39.410 --> 00:02:43.160
window I will do my best to address okay
00:02:43.160 --> 00:02:48.260
so when you get into designing your your
00:02:48.260 --> 00:02:51.230
program your priority and offseason
00:02:51.230 --> 00:02:53.390
should be improving your flexibility
00:02:53.390 --> 00:02:56.480
improving your core activation improving
00:02:56.480 --> 00:02:57.680
your your balance
00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:00.290
improving your awareness and then if you
00:03:00.290 --> 00:03:03.980
have those you can layer on some of the
00:03:03.980 --> 00:03:06.860
strength power and cardio and stuff like
00:03:06.860 --> 00:03:12.290
that I see a live question from Mike do
00:03:12.290 --> 00:03:13.640
you think it is a good idea to use
00:03:13.640 --> 00:03:17.569
tubing to train the Jackson 5 and pivot
00:03:17.569 --> 00:03:23.930
move I I do like using tubing as a way
00:03:23.930 --> 00:03:28.220
of building some awareness or increasing
00:03:28.220 --> 00:03:30.319
muscle activation for those movements
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:34.459
now the the key with the Jackson 5 is
00:03:34.459 --> 00:03:37.849
for many it's going to be more of let's
00:03:37.849 --> 00:03:42.049
say a passive movement so a the there's
00:03:42.049 --> 00:03:44.299
a unweighting of the lead foot and then
00:03:44.299 --> 00:03:46.609
kind of a shift and a weighting into
00:03:46.609 --> 00:03:49.370
that weight foot but it for most it's
00:03:49.370 --> 00:03:52.040
not gonna feel like a very active muscle
00:03:52.040 --> 00:03:55.099
contraction to shift into that lead foot
00:03:55.099 --> 00:03:58.569
so the the danger with using too much of
00:03:58.569 --> 00:04:02.859
too much resistance is it could become
00:04:02.859 --> 00:04:05.510
too much of an active movement and you
00:04:05.510 --> 00:04:07.370
might go into like a right-side bend
00:04:07.370 --> 00:04:11.139
with your upper body so I would err on
00:04:11.139 --> 00:04:15.769
using the using the tubing let's say
00:04:15.769 --> 00:04:17.989
early on in the training process just to
00:04:17.989 --> 00:04:19.579
build a little bit stronger awareness
00:04:19.579 --> 00:04:21.950
but then shifting into more
00:04:21.950 --> 00:04:24.620
of a just a field drill and awareness
00:04:24.620 --> 00:04:27.530
drill I wouldn't want to rep it to heart
00:04:27.530 --> 00:04:30.350
what I would rather do with let's say
00:04:30.350 --> 00:04:32.900
some tubing is oh I'd rather do some
00:04:32.900 --> 00:04:34.880
glute activation exercises I would
00:04:34.880 --> 00:04:36.380
rather do some single leg balance
00:04:36.380 --> 00:04:39.560
training and some some things
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:43.220
challenging your lateral stability so
00:04:43.220 --> 00:04:45.800
you get your glute activation that way
00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:48.950
and then use that newfound strength and
00:04:48.950 --> 00:04:52.810
fitness awareness in your swing training
00:04:52.810 --> 00:04:57.200
so briefly covered the the fitness stuff
00:04:57.200 --> 00:04:58.790
we'll get into a little bit more details
00:04:58.790 --> 00:05:00.110
about what I like as far as some
00:05:00.110 --> 00:05:02.990
flexibility and some core training as it
00:05:02.990 --> 00:05:04.240
relates to another question that came in
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:08.200
but as far as the golf game goes right
00:05:08.200 --> 00:05:11.030
for most of you the winter months means
00:05:11.030 --> 00:05:12.920
I'm not gonna be outside quite as much
00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:14.870
I'm not going to be hitting as many
00:05:14.870 --> 00:05:17.060
balls or possibly playing as much what
00:05:17.060 --> 00:05:18.970
are some things that I can work on
00:05:18.970 --> 00:05:23.420
inside so when you're when you're
00:05:23.420 --> 00:05:26.120
hitting balls inside or even if you're
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:30.320
just swinging and making reps inside you
00:05:30.320 --> 00:05:34.430
can work a little bit on your position
00:05:34.430 --> 00:05:38.330
and relationships but one thing that I
00:05:38.330 --> 00:05:40.340
would challenge you to kind of figure
00:05:40.340 --> 00:05:43.580
out is are you more of a body dominant
00:05:43.580 --> 00:05:46.250
player or are you more of a arm dominant
00:05:46.250 --> 00:05:49.400
player and what can be good is in the
00:05:49.400 --> 00:05:52.430
offseason you train the opposite one you
00:05:52.430 --> 00:05:54.470
train the one that is harder for you to
00:05:54.470 --> 00:05:58.130
work on so that way because they they
00:05:58.130 --> 00:06:00.200
work hand in hand right your your arms
00:06:00.200 --> 00:06:02.300
and your body pivot have to complement
00:06:02.300 --> 00:06:04.370
each other otherwise you're going to
00:06:04.370 --> 00:06:06.380
struggle with low point control path
00:06:06.380 --> 00:06:10.190
face control some people are much better
00:06:10.190 --> 00:06:13.040
playing focusing on a body position so
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:14.480
where is the upper body
00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:16.370
how is my sequencing how are my feet
00:06:16.370 --> 00:06:18.560
moving against the ground other people
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:21.470
are much better focusing on you know
00:06:21.470 --> 00:06:23.870
what's my hand path when do I square the
00:06:23.870 --> 00:06:24.710
club face
00:06:24.710 --> 00:06:27.650
what's my arm Direction timing the one
00:06:27.650 --> 00:06:31.010
that you do really well that's great for
00:06:31.010 --> 00:06:33.530
you to reinforce and continue to train
00:06:33.530 --> 00:06:34.170
in C
00:06:34.170 --> 00:06:37.530
but what I found very helpful is in the
00:06:37.530 --> 00:06:40.410
off season train the one that is not
00:06:40.410 --> 00:06:42.630
your natural strength and that will
00:06:42.630 --> 00:06:45.120
ultimately make it easier if you then
00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:47.430
have to make a little adjustment during
00:06:47.430 --> 00:06:50.130
the season because the main goal from a
00:06:50.130 --> 00:06:51.900
learning perspective is during the
00:06:51.900 --> 00:06:54.330
season you're going to revisit things
00:06:54.330 --> 00:06:56.250
that have worked for you in the past in
00:06:56.250 --> 00:06:58.290
order to balance your swing
00:06:58.290 --> 00:07:01.770
you're not going to hopefully introduce
00:07:01.770 --> 00:07:04.980
too many new pieces so in the offseason
00:07:04.980 --> 00:07:06.870
you cover a lot of the things that you
00:07:06.870 --> 00:07:09.420
think you're going to need during the
00:07:09.420 --> 00:07:11.910
season so maybe you cover some
00:07:11.910 --> 00:07:13.710
transition stuff maybe you should cover
00:07:13.710 --> 00:07:15.900
some release stuff maybe you cover some
00:07:15.900 --> 00:07:18.330
setup but balance awareness back swing
00:07:18.330 --> 00:07:21.420
whatever then it will be easier for you
00:07:21.420 --> 00:07:24.840
to then reintroduce it if it becomes an
00:07:24.840 --> 00:07:28.140
issue during the season the other thing
00:07:28.140 --> 00:07:31.710
that's great to work on at home relates
00:07:31.710 --> 00:07:34.490
to putting and chipping you can work on
00:07:34.490 --> 00:07:36.960
low point control on carpet pretty
00:07:36.960 --> 00:07:40.500
easily for for chipping I have lots of
00:07:40.500 --> 00:07:42.780
students I have doing like chipping into
00:07:42.780 --> 00:07:45.120
sofa cushions and things like that or
00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:49.110
you can work on start line right so
00:07:49.110 --> 00:07:50.480
there's three main skills the putting
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:52.680
controlling the start line controlling
00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:55.560
the speed and reading a green hard to do
00:07:55.560 --> 00:07:57.690
green reading unless you have a really
00:07:57.690 --> 00:08:01.080
nice home training area but it's easy to
00:08:01.080 --> 00:08:04.260
do start line training so a dime placed
00:08:04.260 --> 00:08:06.450
about two feet in front of a golf ball
00:08:06.450 --> 00:08:11.010
is about the same diameter as the width
00:08:11.010 --> 00:08:13.850
of the hole at ten feet so if you can
00:08:13.850 --> 00:08:16.350
consistently roll it over a dime with
00:08:16.350 --> 00:08:19.110
different speeds that's indicating they
00:08:19.110 --> 00:08:21.330
have a pretty functional stroke and
00:08:21.330 --> 00:08:25.020
pretty functional start line okay so I
00:08:25.020 --> 00:08:27.750
see a question came in from Ben Hogan
00:08:27.750 --> 00:08:32.400
blades I feel like hamed guessing hand
00:08:32.400 --> 00:08:34.670
strength has continued to deteriorate
00:08:34.670 --> 00:08:37.920
fifty-five years old can this have that
00:08:37.920 --> 00:08:42.599
have negative impact yes so as you get
00:08:42.599 --> 00:08:45.450
older you will tend to lose
00:08:45.450 --> 00:08:47.580
your type ii fibers so your your
00:08:47.580 --> 00:08:50.940
strength and power fibers faster but you
00:08:50.940 --> 00:08:52.940
will tend to lose a little bit of
00:08:52.940 --> 00:08:56.580
flexibility activation endurance like
00:08:56.580 --> 00:09:00.750
you you lose a you lose all of the
00:09:00.750 --> 00:09:03.660
things that are kind of natural movement
00:09:03.660 --> 00:09:05.400
patterns but the ones that you lose the
00:09:05.400 --> 00:09:10.230
fastest are strength and power so I do
00:09:10.230 --> 00:09:13.980
advocate doing some type of strength
00:09:13.980 --> 00:09:16.590
training especially if you're if you
00:09:16.590 --> 00:09:20.490
have let's say more than two hours of
00:09:20.490 --> 00:09:24.570
total training time each week then doing
00:09:24.570 --> 00:09:27.510
some form of heavy lifting whether it's
00:09:27.510 --> 00:09:29.970
a whether it's a you know like a
00:09:29.970 --> 00:09:32.300
farmer's carry whether it's a deadlift
00:09:32.300 --> 00:09:36.420
whether it's a chest press although I'll
00:09:36.420 --> 00:09:38.160
talk when we cover some strength though
00:09:38.160 --> 00:09:40.020
that's not my favorite exercise and you
00:09:40.020 --> 00:09:42.930
got to be careful with it stuff where
00:09:42.930 --> 00:09:44.850
you do have to grip and move around
00:09:44.850 --> 00:09:46.850
heavy weight so dead lifting squatting
00:09:46.850 --> 00:09:49.770
farmers carries can be very helpful for
00:09:49.770 --> 00:09:52.050
maintaining grip strength or there are
00:09:52.050 --> 00:09:55.590
lots of devices you can use to work on
00:09:55.590 --> 00:09:59.070
grip strength a problem the main problem
00:09:59.070 --> 00:10:01.190
is is if your grip strength goes down
00:10:01.190 --> 00:10:05.010
then you'll tend to overly recruit some
00:10:05.010 --> 00:10:06.920
of the shoulder muscles to help
00:10:06.920 --> 00:10:08.700
manufacture your grip strength and that
00:10:08.700 --> 00:10:11.150
can tend to restrict some of your
00:10:11.150 --> 00:10:14.000
ribcage range of motion during the swing
00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:19.020
and it'll tend to cause a little bit of
00:10:19.020 --> 00:10:22.440
a over tightness down at the bottom of
00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:25.020
the swing and that can cause more of a
00:10:25.020 --> 00:10:26.730
chicken wing local and control path
00:10:26.730 --> 00:10:29.760
going left toe hits those things so yes
00:10:29.760 --> 00:10:32.340
I would definitely do some form of
00:10:32.340 --> 00:10:35.100
strength training as you get older in
00:10:35.100 --> 00:10:37.740
order to hopefully maintain your grip
00:10:37.740 --> 00:10:42.140
strength and your overall power ability
00:10:42.140 --> 00:10:46.950
but let me let me jump I did have a one
00:10:46.950 --> 00:10:48.300
question it's kind of related to that
00:10:48.300 --> 00:10:52.020
topic that came in earlier today from
00:10:52.020 --> 00:10:55.279
Brent he was referencing in my book in
00:10:55.279 --> 00:10:56.889
in the section where I'm talking about
00:10:56.889 --> 00:11:01.009
common swing faults I reference how one
00:11:01.009 --> 00:11:04.910
of the let's say stereotypes of TPI is
00:11:04.910 --> 00:11:07.310
that they have a number of different
00:11:07.310 --> 00:11:10.569
tests and pretty much everyone fails the
00:11:10.569 --> 00:11:12.740
glute test or the bridge test and
00:11:12.740 --> 00:11:14.449
everybody fails the t-spine rotation
00:11:14.449 --> 00:11:17.120
test typically also many people will
00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:20.060
feel would fail the core activation test
00:11:20.060 --> 00:11:21.949
although their core activation tests are
00:11:21.949 --> 00:11:25.160
a little weaker than some other systems
00:11:25.160 --> 00:11:28.519
but basically most people have tight t
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:31.910
spine most people have weak gluts how do
00:11:31.910 --> 00:11:36.019
you balance that how do you how do I
00:11:36.019 --> 00:11:39.740
like to improve that so the the tight
00:11:39.740 --> 00:11:42.889
teat spine is you need to do things that
00:11:42.889 --> 00:11:45.019
involve breathing in order to get the
00:11:45.019 --> 00:11:47.990
ribs moving if you have someone in your
00:11:47.990 --> 00:11:50.509
area who is an elder a trainer I think
00:11:50.509 --> 00:11:52.790
that the L dough is for the ribs are
00:11:52.790 --> 00:11:57.199
pretty amazing and they can take a
00:11:57.199 --> 00:12:00.889
little while to have some to have some
00:12:00.889 --> 00:12:03.350
effects like I've heard people taking as
00:12:03.350 --> 00:12:05.810
long as six months or so of doing the
00:12:05.810 --> 00:12:08.389
rib elbow is to really open it up but if
00:12:08.389 --> 00:12:12.439
you if you open up each rib you can gain
00:12:12.439 --> 00:12:14.930
like let's say you gain one degree at
00:12:14.930 --> 00:12:17.750
each level well one degree on each side
00:12:17.750 --> 00:12:20.660
times twelve you can gain twenty five
00:12:20.660 --> 00:12:23.269
degrees with I don't want to say not a
00:12:23.269 --> 00:12:25.220
whole lot of work but kind of in a
00:12:25.220 --> 00:12:30.290
seifish way if you start if the if the
00:12:30.290 --> 00:12:33.459
spine if the center of your rib cage is
00:12:33.459 --> 00:12:36.980
really rigid then if you force the
00:12:36.980 --> 00:12:39.709
flexibility issue too much you know like
00:12:39.709 --> 00:12:41.480
clubs across your back and really
00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:44.959
twisting like so you could potentially
00:12:44.959 --> 00:12:48.259
create some some problems because the
00:12:48.259 --> 00:12:50.059
outside is moving let's say more than
00:12:50.059 --> 00:12:53.740
the inside you could potentially create
00:12:53.740 --> 00:12:56.300
the situation for injury so I'll give
00:12:56.300 --> 00:13:01.160
you one I mentioned some breathing
00:13:01.160 --> 00:13:03.250
exercises but I'll give you one simple
00:13:03.250 --> 00:13:06.769
kind of T spine rotation exercise that I
00:13:06.769 --> 00:13:07.230
really
00:13:07.230 --> 00:13:12.690
like so if I was to sit here kind of
00:13:12.690 --> 00:13:15.330
towards the back of my chair so I sit up
00:13:15.330 --> 00:13:17.760
nice and tall I'm gonna focus on some
00:13:17.760 --> 00:13:19.790
axial extension so I'm gonna focus on
00:13:19.790 --> 00:13:23.600
maintaining length in my spine and in my
00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:25.950
mid-back and then I'm gonna bring my
00:13:25.950 --> 00:13:27.780
arms up and keep the elbows above
00:13:27.780 --> 00:13:29.580
shoulder height now I'm gonna pull one
00:13:29.580 --> 00:13:33.200
arm back and reach the opposite arm palm
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:35.910
forward and I'm gonna externally rotate
00:13:35.910 --> 00:13:38.400
both arms as I do it that external
00:13:38.400 --> 00:13:40.590
rotation is gonna force some more of the
00:13:40.590 --> 00:13:43.560
movement through the spine instead of if
00:13:43.560 --> 00:13:46.230
I stay in internal rotation I can get
00:13:46.230 --> 00:13:48.840
more of it in the actual shoulder socket
00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:51.990
so I go into external rotation pull one
00:13:51.990 --> 00:13:54.030
arm back reach the opposite arm forward
00:13:54.030 --> 00:13:57.390
and just take a few breaths and kind of
00:13:57.390 --> 00:14:00.480
as I inhale I'm gonna hold that longer
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:03.450
and then when I exhale I'll try to
00:14:03.450 --> 00:14:05.900
increase just slightly and then as I
00:14:05.900 --> 00:14:10.080
inhale go a little bit further do like a
00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:15.120
couple breaths on each side from a from
00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:17.400
a spine standpoint I've got the video on
00:14:17.400 --> 00:14:18.840
the site called the analytic warm-up
00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:21.870
where I teach you how to do kind of
00:14:21.870 --> 00:14:24.630
translation exercises for the spine
00:14:24.630 --> 00:14:26.970
first before you get into rotation so
00:14:26.970 --> 00:14:28.230
please always make sure that you've
00:14:28.230 --> 00:14:30.690
warmed up your spine before you start
00:14:30.690 --> 00:14:33.810
trying to do any t spine rotation but
00:14:33.810 --> 00:14:35.760
good breathing exercises where you get
00:14:35.760 --> 00:14:37.560
the ribs kind of moving in all
00:14:37.560 --> 00:14:41.580
directions and then kind of T spine
00:14:41.580 --> 00:14:44.910
rotation exercises after that the other
00:14:44.910 --> 00:14:46.770
thing that you'll probably need to do is
00:14:46.770 --> 00:14:49.200
because of their connection to it you'll
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:51.660
have to work on some good shoulder
00:14:51.660 --> 00:14:53.370
stretches so like tech stretch and lat
00:14:53.370 --> 00:14:55.770
stretch will also restrict your T spine
00:14:55.770 --> 00:14:58.710
mobility because they both run from the
00:14:58.710 --> 00:15:00.750
shoulder to the pelvis kind of one
00:15:00.750 --> 00:15:02.250
across the front and one across the back
00:15:02.250 --> 00:15:07.380
so for t spine breathing some rib
00:15:07.380 --> 00:15:10.530
mobility stuff and then good Peck and
00:15:10.530 --> 00:15:13.230
lat stretches should help create more
00:15:13.230 --> 00:15:15.570
range of motion and that range of motion
00:15:15.570 --> 00:15:17.880
can take pressure off of neck injury
00:15:17.880 --> 00:15:20.280
shoulder injuries but most of
00:15:20.280 --> 00:15:21.900
lower back injuries because oftentimes
00:15:21.900 --> 00:15:26.070
the lumbar spine rotating is what
00:15:26.070 --> 00:15:28.020
creates a whole lot of pain and
00:15:28.020 --> 00:15:30.450
dysfunction and that's rotating in order
00:15:30.450 --> 00:15:33.900
to compensate for a tighter t spine so
00:15:33.900 --> 00:15:35.340
then the other question was about the
00:15:35.340 --> 00:15:40.400
weak glutes so weak glutes typically
00:15:40.400 --> 00:15:44.790
come from a combination of poor
00:15:44.790 --> 00:15:47.630
activation and imbalance as far as
00:15:47.630 --> 00:15:50.730
overactive psoas muscles and tightness
00:15:50.730 --> 00:15:54.560
in basically your hip flexors which
00:15:54.560 --> 00:15:57.930
create a reciprocal inhibition for the
00:15:57.930 --> 00:16:00.180
glutes so oftentimes you'll have to
00:16:00.180 --> 00:16:03.930
start glute training with TVA or a deep
00:16:03.930 --> 00:16:05.700
core activation and you may even have to
00:16:05.700 --> 00:16:09.000
do some pelvic floor activation but then
00:16:09.000 --> 00:16:14.610
if you do bridges correctly you will get
00:16:14.610 --> 00:16:18.750
good glute activation so to correctly do
00:16:18.750 --> 00:16:20.430
the bridges you want to make sure that
00:16:20.430 --> 00:16:23.340
when you raise when you push through the
00:16:23.340 --> 00:16:26.520
hips and raise your hips up off the
00:16:26.520 --> 00:16:30.270
ground you're going to kind of maintain
00:16:30.270 --> 00:16:33.930
a little bit of posterior tilt in the
00:16:33.930 --> 00:16:36.780
pelvis as you're raising it up and as
00:16:36.780 --> 00:16:38.820
you're raising it down so I always coach
00:16:38.820 --> 00:16:41.160
people when they're doing those bridges
00:16:41.160 --> 00:16:43.910
not to let the tailbone touch the ground
00:16:43.910 --> 00:16:46.140
as long as the tailbone stays off the
00:16:46.140 --> 00:16:50.070
ground when you're moving so it's kind
00:16:50.070 --> 00:16:51.540
of moving more in that direction it's
00:16:51.540 --> 00:16:53.960
keeping your abs and your glutes active
00:16:53.960 --> 00:16:58.050
then to get the full range of the glutes
00:16:58.050 --> 00:17:01.140
you would want your feet to be in two
00:17:01.140 --> 00:17:02.550
different positions either feet wide
00:17:02.550 --> 00:17:04.020
feet narrow and you would want your
00:17:04.020 --> 00:17:05.490
knees in two different positions so
00:17:05.490 --> 00:17:07.079
you've got basically four different
00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:09.600
bridge activities to target different
00:17:09.600 --> 00:17:12.780
parts of the glute you've got feet wide
00:17:12.780 --> 00:17:15.270
knees narrow feet wide knees wide and
00:17:15.270 --> 00:17:17.310
then feet narrow knees wide feet Nut
00:17:17.310 --> 00:17:21.209
feet narrow knees narrow so by working
00:17:21.209 --> 00:17:24.180
on those four different positions you'll
00:17:24.180 --> 00:17:26.699
start getting glute activation if you do
00:17:26.699 --> 00:17:29.640
good so as stretching and you do good
00:17:29.640 --> 00:17:32.910
deep core or tv8 and pelvic floor
00:17:32.910 --> 00:17:35.460
activation that usually helps rebalance
00:17:35.460 --> 00:17:37.590
the pelvis create some stability and
00:17:37.590 --> 00:17:41.220
create better glute activation so that's
00:17:41.220 --> 00:17:43.500
the that's kind of a common recipe I use
00:17:43.500 --> 00:17:45.450
for getting the glutes active and we
00:17:45.450 --> 00:17:48.780
already talked about the t spine Ben's
00:17:48.780 --> 00:17:50.460
got another question coming in what
00:17:50.460 --> 00:17:53.280
problem Eric problematic area is mostly
00:17:53.280 --> 00:17:56.490
responsible for the forward lunge so the
00:17:56.490 --> 00:18:00.270
forward lunge typically comes from a
00:18:00.270 --> 00:18:02.930
combination of two things either a
00:18:02.930 --> 00:18:06.240
clubface awareness issue so I square the
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:09.150
club more with a scoop then with
00:18:09.150 --> 00:18:11.550
rotation of the shaft and as a result of
00:18:11.550 --> 00:18:13.290
that scoop the low point moves backwards
00:18:13.290 --> 00:18:15.900
so then I lunge forward to balance it
00:18:15.900 --> 00:18:18.750
out so the forward lunge can be a way to
00:18:18.750 --> 00:18:22.830
kind of create shaft lean but from the
00:18:22.830 --> 00:18:25.500
body instead of the wrists physically
00:18:25.500 --> 00:18:28.130
there can be a handful of issues
00:18:28.130 --> 00:18:32.520
tightness in the neck so inability to
00:18:32.520 --> 00:18:35.910
rotate your head to the right enough so
00:18:35.910 --> 00:18:40.020
then you'll shift forward to kind of
00:18:40.020 --> 00:18:44.930
move stuff up the chain as well as keep
00:18:45.020 --> 00:18:47.820
basically instead of being able to
00:18:47.820 --> 00:18:51.630
rotate you'll activate the muscles in
00:18:51.630 --> 00:18:53.220
the neck and they'll kind of pull your
00:18:53.220 --> 00:18:54.930
upper body forward so it's a way to kind
00:18:54.930 --> 00:18:58.580
of keep vision on the ball without
00:18:58.580 --> 00:19:01.620
pushing the next rotation to its full
00:19:01.620 --> 00:19:03.810
capability it can also be very
00:19:03.810 --> 00:19:06.840
protective on the shoulder so when you
00:19:06.840 --> 00:19:10.170
when you rotate and stay behind you'll
00:19:10.170 --> 00:19:13.230
tend to get the arm to extend a little
00:19:13.230 --> 00:19:16.110
bit away in as it's going into external
00:19:16.110 --> 00:19:19.200
rotation where the the shoulder to be
00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:21.300
more protected would like to stay into
00:19:21.300 --> 00:19:25.410
internal rotation and flex a bit so if
00:19:25.410 --> 00:19:27.720
the upper body or if the shoulder wants
00:19:27.720 --> 00:19:30.060
to go like that that would pull the the
00:19:30.060 --> 00:19:32.760
low point in and that would tend to move
00:19:32.760 --> 00:19:33.870
the path to the left
00:19:33.870 --> 00:19:37.410
so then lunging in front tends to
00:19:37.410 --> 00:19:39.150
balance that so neck and shoulder can be
00:19:39.150 --> 00:19:40.550
a big issue
00:19:40.550 --> 00:19:43.400
the right shoulder flexibility so if the
00:19:43.400 --> 00:19:45.920
right shoulder tends to go into internal
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:48.260
rotation that can cause a leftward path
00:19:48.260 --> 00:19:51.020
and the forward lunge helps make that
00:19:51.020 --> 00:19:54.230
less dramatic so I tend to see a lot of
00:19:54.230 --> 00:19:56.540
neck shoulder issues related to the
00:19:56.540 --> 00:19:58.640
release contributing to the forward
00:19:58.640 --> 00:20:02.540
lunge if those are cleared up and that's
00:20:02.540 --> 00:20:05.270
not the issue then I would most likely
00:20:05.270 --> 00:20:07.370
look at the feet and how they're working
00:20:07.370 --> 00:20:09.380
at the ground because it probably means
00:20:09.380 --> 00:20:13.250
that you're getting you're probably
00:20:13.250 --> 00:20:15.830
getting more of your speed from an arm
00:20:15.830 --> 00:20:18.710
pull and the forward lunge is a good way
00:20:18.710 --> 00:20:22.220
to kind of work with a more of an arm
00:20:22.220 --> 00:20:24.580
pull situation so you had a calcified
00:20:24.580 --> 00:20:28.400
tendinitis in your left shoulder yes
00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:30.320
that could definitely contribute to more
00:20:30.320 --> 00:20:31.660
of a forward lunge
00:20:31.660 --> 00:20:35.929
especially if if you lost some external
00:20:35.929 --> 00:20:38.540
rotation of the trail arm or if you had
00:20:38.540 --> 00:20:42.620
some some stiffening of the sc/st join
00:20:42.620 --> 00:20:45.190
or AC joint those could absolutely
00:20:45.190 --> 00:20:47.770
contribute to the for forward lunge
00:20:47.770 --> 00:20:51.290
problem so then you'd have to figure out
00:20:51.290 --> 00:20:53.900
is that something that you can really
00:20:53.900 --> 00:20:56.150
improve on or then do you have to start
00:20:56.150 --> 00:20:58.220
working with more of a forward lunge
00:20:58.220 --> 00:21:03.650
pattern so another question
00:21:03.650 --> 00:21:06.590
you know Ben's doing a great job but if
00:21:06.590 --> 00:21:08.720
anybody else has any questions about
00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:10.970
their fitness or their situation go
00:21:10.970 --> 00:21:12.770
ahead and type it in the chat window
00:21:12.770 --> 00:21:16.790
I've got a couple other questions that
00:21:16.790 --> 00:21:18.610
came in through email that I wanted to
00:21:18.610 --> 00:21:22.070
make sure that we covered Sharon asked
00:21:22.070 --> 00:21:24.980
about you know offseason is a good time
00:21:24.980 --> 00:21:27.200
to kind of game plan and work on your
00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:29.809
your overall swing so she was asking
00:21:29.809 --> 00:21:32.570
about shaft lean versus elbow playing
00:21:32.570 --> 00:21:34.910
versus shoulder plane basically if you
00:21:34.910 --> 00:21:39.260
were to you know go if you were to get
00:21:39.260 --> 00:21:41.510
into your set of position and draw lines
00:21:41.510 --> 00:21:45.320
on video what you know what's the
00:21:45.320 --> 00:21:46.880
advantage of looking at either the elbow
00:21:46.880 --> 00:21:50.179
the shoulder or the shaft lean I would
00:21:50.179 --> 00:21:53.660
say that early in my career I used
00:21:53.660 --> 00:21:56.210
all three of those I would I would say
00:21:56.210 --> 00:21:58.970
that now almost exclusively I'll use the
00:21:58.970 --> 00:22:00.740
impact plane which is gonna be closest
00:22:00.740 --> 00:22:05.210
to the elbow so the the research from
00:22:05.210 --> 00:22:07.550
dr. Huang on the functional swing plane
00:22:07.550 --> 00:22:10.250
and most of the guys you talk to the
00:22:10.250 --> 00:22:12.140
only time the club is really gonna be
00:22:12.140 --> 00:22:13.520
planar is from waist height to waist
00:22:13.520 --> 00:22:16.580
height so what I would do is make sure
00:22:16.580 --> 00:22:17.930
that the camera is in a good set up
00:22:17.930 --> 00:22:20.210
position so it's in line roughly with
00:22:20.210 --> 00:22:21.590
the hands from the down the line and
00:22:21.590 --> 00:22:24.740
then take the swing to impact and then
00:22:24.740 --> 00:22:27.200
draw the shaft plane there and then go
00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:29.000
back to set up and just you can see
00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:31.160
where that goes it'll usually go through
00:22:31.160 --> 00:22:35.330
about the point of the trail arm but the
00:22:35.330 --> 00:22:37.700
key for timing is looking at that
00:22:37.700 --> 00:22:40.310
relationship where is the club at waist
00:22:40.310 --> 00:22:41.810
height and then where is the club
00:22:41.810 --> 00:22:45.200
working on the way through the the more
00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:47.780
that it's coming from under to above
00:22:47.780 --> 00:22:49.490
through impact that's gonna tend to be
00:22:49.490 --> 00:22:53.240
shallower rightward more driver base the
00:22:53.240 --> 00:22:55.880
more that it's slightly outside and then
00:22:55.880 --> 00:22:58.910
under the more it's gonna be it's a
00:22:58.910 --> 00:22:59.690
iron-based
00:22:59.690 --> 00:23:02.860
but drawing the impact plane is the the
00:23:02.860 --> 00:23:05.750
what I would I believe is the most
00:23:05.750 --> 00:23:09.770
useful of the the plane lines that you
00:23:09.770 --> 00:23:14.090
could draw when looking at video all
00:23:14.090 --> 00:23:15.470
right I have a question coming in from
00:23:15.470 --> 00:23:18.700
Mike do you have any ideas on knee pain
00:23:18.700 --> 00:23:21.050
precipitated by walking is there any way
00:23:21.050 --> 00:23:24.280
to tell if it is from the quadricep
00:23:24.280 --> 00:23:27.860
overdevelopment and inhibited hamstring
00:23:27.860 --> 00:23:31.160
or other causes anytime that there is
00:23:31.160 --> 00:23:34.180
pain I like to refer out to my team and
00:23:34.180 --> 00:23:37.670
get a thorough evaluation because
00:23:37.670 --> 00:23:39.650
there's lots of simple what I call
00:23:39.650 --> 00:23:41.060
provocation tests where they can
00:23:41.060 --> 00:23:45.110
basically figure out okay if you can
00:23:45.110 --> 00:23:46.670
touch where the pain is going and they
00:23:46.670 --> 00:23:48.170
can have you do certain movements if it
00:23:48.170 --> 00:23:50.810
triggers the pain then you have a pretty
00:23:50.810 --> 00:23:53.180
clear idea as far as where the pain is
00:23:53.180 --> 00:23:54.860
coming from and it makes it much easier
00:23:54.860 --> 00:24:00.860
to diagnose I would say that the the
00:24:00.860 --> 00:24:03.860
knee is one of the tough tougher joints
00:24:03.860 --> 00:24:05.560
as far as
00:24:05.560 --> 00:24:08.590
being able to create space a lot of the
00:24:08.590 --> 00:24:11.500
other joints have some really small deep
00:24:11.500 --> 00:24:13.630
muscles that can help create space if
00:24:13.630 --> 00:24:15.010
you if you train them and the knee
00:24:15.010 --> 00:24:20.470
doesn't have that so typically knee pain
00:24:20.470 --> 00:24:24.180
and focusing on quad flexibility
00:24:24.180 --> 00:24:28.330
focusing on I'd say quite probably more
00:24:28.330 --> 00:24:31.030
so than hamstring flexibility although
00:24:31.030 --> 00:24:33.580
it can contribute and making sure that
00:24:33.580 --> 00:24:36.220
there is adequate strength in the VMO
00:24:36.220 --> 00:24:38.830
which is a tough guy to train but that
00:24:38.830 --> 00:24:43.200
helps with the patella tracking that
00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:48.730
those two are I've seen a fair amount of
00:24:48.730 --> 00:24:51.310
improvement in knee pain especially from
00:24:51.310 --> 00:24:53.050
walking on hills when you get those two
00:24:53.050 --> 00:24:54.880
a little bit more balanced but I would
00:24:54.880 --> 00:24:58.000
definitely you know talk to somebody
00:24:58.000 --> 00:25:00.280
qualified in your area
00:25:00.280 --> 00:25:02.130
physical therapist chiropractor
00:25:02.130 --> 00:25:04.840
osteopath somebody who who knows how to
00:25:04.840 --> 00:25:09.160
do a joint assessment and look at look
00:25:09.160 --> 00:25:13.780
at that knee yeah I'm trying to think of
00:25:13.780 --> 00:25:15.910
your swing I know you were out here a
00:25:15.910 --> 00:25:18.310
little bit and we were doing mostly
00:25:18.310 --> 00:25:22.630
related to the back I'd probably go if I
00:25:22.630 --> 00:25:24.250
remember right your quads weren't super
00:25:24.250 --> 00:25:29.230
tight so I'd be looking more at I'd find
00:25:29.230 --> 00:25:30.670
somebody in your area so you could rule
00:25:30.670 --> 00:25:33.060
out a couple issues and I'll send you a
00:25:33.060 --> 00:25:36.340
little note after this just send me an
00:25:36.340 --> 00:25:40.330
email to remind me okay add another
00:25:40.330 --> 00:25:45.370
question as far as like lesson plans and
00:25:45.370 --> 00:25:49.900
during the offseason how do you how do
00:25:49.900 --> 00:25:51.700
you balance you know if you're used to
00:25:51.700 --> 00:25:53.500
taking like a weekly lesson should you
00:25:53.500 --> 00:25:55.210
continue on that during the offseason
00:25:55.210 --> 00:25:58.180
should you try and own it a little bit
00:25:58.180 --> 00:26:00.460
Edward was asking about how he was
00:26:00.460 --> 00:26:06.490
working on shallowing and oh mike okay
00:26:06.490 --> 00:26:10.710
actually for Claire yeah then I would
00:26:10.710 --> 00:26:13.630
yes shoot me an email and I'll give you
00:26:13.630 --> 00:26:17.950
some ideas okay back to Edward working
00:26:17.950 --> 00:26:20.140
shallowing if you're if you're working
00:26:20.140 --> 00:26:24.360
on the downswing what I find is the the
00:26:24.360 --> 00:26:27.150
the transition and the release have to
00:26:27.150 --> 00:26:30.340
blend together right so you can have
00:26:30.340 --> 00:26:33.010
really big success working on one or the
00:26:33.010 --> 00:26:36.070
other but the greatest gains and when it
00:26:36.070 --> 00:26:38.380
will feel somewhat automatic is when you
00:26:38.380 --> 00:26:42.730
work on each of them but together right
00:26:42.730 --> 00:26:44.010
so let's say you're working on
00:26:44.010 --> 00:26:46.450
shallowing that means during the release
00:26:46.450 --> 00:26:48.790
you would have to work on a little bit
00:26:48.790 --> 00:26:50.620
more shaft rotation and a little bit
00:26:50.620 --> 00:26:53.890
later arm extension timing and you'll
00:26:53.890 --> 00:26:55.930
have the best success when you're doing
00:26:55.930 --> 00:26:58.420
both of those so the offseason can be a
00:26:58.420 --> 00:27:00.880
good time to work on the one that's more
00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:04.240
challenging we're in season I would say
00:27:04.240 --> 00:27:05.830
you want to focus on the one that is
00:27:05.830 --> 00:27:07.480
easier for you to do because it'll be
00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:10.810
easier to like you won't it won't take
00:27:10.810 --> 00:27:12.370
as much thought and the problem is if
00:27:12.370 --> 00:27:14.950
you overly focus on one area typically
00:27:14.950 --> 00:27:18.700
the brain kind of shuts down or loses
00:27:18.700 --> 00:27:21.250
some of its sequencing some of its like
00:27:21.250 --> 00:27:25.270
connection down during those transition
00:27:25.270 --> 00:27:31.540
points so I tend to advocate working on
00:27:31.540 --> 00:27:36.520
a few things kind of a few things at
00:27:36.520 --> 00:27:40.840
once and let's say spending less time so
00:27:40.840 --> 00:27:43.630
normally during the season I might say
00:27:43.630 --> 00:27:45.610
you're gonna work on one specific topic
00:27:45.610 --> 00:27:47.880
for anywhere from three to six weeks
00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:51.100
during the offseason I cut that about in
00:27:51.100 --> 00:27:54.190
half so I'd work on one thing and then
00:27:54.190 --> 00:27:55.870
move on quicker because I know that I
00:27:55.870 --> 00:27:58.050
want to work on multiple things at once
00:27:58.050 --> 00:28:00.790
and I want to try in the offseason to
00:28:00.790 --> 00:28:03.310
cover as many topics related to that as
00:28:03.310 --> 00:28:06.400
I can so if I'm working on shallowing I
00:28:06.400 --> 00:28:08.710
might work on how the feet are working
00:28:08.710 --> 00:28:10.270
on against the ground I might work on
00:28:10.270 --> 00:28:13.630
how the pelvis to ribcage sequence isn't
00:28:13.630 --> 00:28:15.940
working I might work on shallowing with
00:28:15.940 --> 00:28:18.220
the right arm and shallowing with the
00:28:18.220 --> 00:28:20.950
left arm or left forearm and I might
00:28:20.950 --> 00:28:23.650
work on some early clubface rotation and
00:28:23.650 --> 00:28:27.910
I'd I'd work on a few of those at once
00:28:27.910 --> 00:28:30.100
because typically when you're hitting
00:28:30.100 --> 00:28:31.420
balls and
00:28:31.420 --> 00:28:34.160
you're hitting off of a mat so you're
00:28:34.160 --> 00:28:36.230
not totally working on low point control
00:28:36.230 --> 00:28:37.970
that's a hard skill to work on indoors
00:28:37.970 --> 00:28:40.280
you're working more on the global
00:28:40.280 --> 00:28:42.410
pattern and you're working more on let's
00:28:42.410 --> 00:28:45.110
say path and face the path control and
00:28:45.110 --> 00:28:48.890
so because you it's let's say easier
00:28:48.890 --> 00:28:49.940
when you're hitting on a mat you can
00:28:49.940 --> 00:28:52.250
usually do a little bit more intense or
00:28:52.250 --> 00:28:54.800
you can do a few things at once and the
00:28:54.800 --> 00:28:57.830
other thing is because you don't get
00:28:57.830 --> 00:29:00.140
just as distracted by miss hits you
00:29:00.140 --> 00:29:02.660
don't get as distracted by ball flight
00:29:02.660 --> 00:29:04.790
it's easier to have a little bit more of
00:29:04.790 --> 00:29:07.400
a mechanical focus so I would work on
00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:09.850
the different components of shallowing
00:29:09.850 --> 00:29:12.230
so instead of working on one thing for
00:29:12.230 --> 00:29:14.179
three to six weeks I would probably work
00:29:14.179 --> 00:29:17.150
on three or four things related to the
00:29:17.150 --> 00:29:19.910
same area over that same time frame so
00:29:19.910 --> 00:29:22.970
I'd move on to things usually quicker in
00:29:22.970 --> 00:29:26.059
the offseason so that I'll have the map
00:29:26.059 --> 00:29:28.880
in my mind of other ideas I can try in
00:29:28.880 --> 00:29:30.679
season if I start to struggle with the
00:29:30.679 --> 00:29:35.020
same concept okay I had another question
00:29:35.020 --> 00:29:42.470
from Mike about ideal clubface and path
00:29:42.470 --> 00:29:48.580
ratio so he was asking about how
00:29:48.910 --> 00:29:51.290
basically you know a lot of guys will
00:29:51.290 --> 00:29:55.160
talk about a relationship of face to
00:29:55.160 --> 00:29:58.370
path so you know his in his particular
00:29:58.370 --> 00:30:01.790
case he finds that when he has a face
00:30:01.790 --> 00:30:06.110
the path of greater than - - he tends to
00:30:06.110 --> 00:30:11.350
have more trouble controlling they say
00:30:11.350 --> 00:30:14.600
club head club face variability in
00:30:14.600 --> 00:30:18.559
closure rates I would say that you know
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:22.280
- 2 - 3 is probably yeah towards the
00:30:22.280 --> 00:30:26.090
upper end well I know that drawing a
00:30:26.090 --> 00:30:27.679
blank on his name I'll put him in the in
00:30:27.679 --> 00:30:29.870
the text description below I mentioned
00:30:29.870 --> 00:30:33.890
in my book did a he did some research
00:30:33.890 --> 00:30:35.720
and found it like when you get over
00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:38.840
above minus or plus or minus 5 so if the
00:30:38.840 --> 00:30:42.080
club face the path starts getting above
00:30:42.080 --> 00:30:44.090
5 you're going to have
00:30:44.090 --> 00:30:48.260
pretty much impossible dispersion but
00:30:48.260 --> 00:30:50.990
you're gonna have to high variance
00:30:50.990 --> 00:30:54.890
missus and so if the general rule of
00:30:54.890 --> 00:30:56.960
thumb is that you want your face to path
00:30:56.960 --> 00:31:00.710
to be roughly half of the path then that
00:31:00.710 --> 00:31:03.110
says that you can't have a you can't
00:31:03.110 --> 00:31:07.070
have a path that's too much more you
00:31:07.070 --> 00:31:08.630
can't have a path that's too much more
00:31:08.630 --> 00:31:10.850
than five or six degrees in out or out
00:31:10.850 --> 00:31:15.409
to end or else your clubface open closed
00:31:15.409 --> 00:31:17.990
being half of that is gonna be up around
00:31:17.990 --> 00:31:22.429
four or five so yes working on your
00:31:22.429 --> 00:31:25.340
general path and getting it closest to
00:31:25.340 --> 00:31:28.070
zero but or you know let's say less than
00:31:28.070 --> 00:31:31.070
I usually aim for five with a lot of my
00:31:31.070 --> 00:31:35.480
golfers but being able to also control
00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:38.210
the wide point or the low point and
00:31:38.210 --> 00:31:40.399
being able to get good arm extension on
00:31:40.399 --> 00:31:44.600
the way through with that same path that
00:31:44.600 --> 00:31:46.549
tends to lead towards more consistency
00:31:46.549 --> 00:31:50.809
because I wouldn't say that you're gonna
00:31:50.809 --> 00:31:54.549
have that much greater clubface very
00:31:54.549 --> 00:31:58.730
club face closure variability at a five
00:31:58.730 --> 00:32:01.690
to six compared to say a two to three
00:32:01.690 --> 00:32:05.000
but if you told me that you're having
00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:07.460
more of an arc with issue and the club
00:32:07.460 --> 00:32:08.899
kind of passing on the way through that
00:32:08.899 --> 00:32:11.740
usually causes the clubface variability
00:32:11.740 --> 00:32:18.970
I had another question come in about
00:32:19.750 --> 00:32:22.970
struggling with hooking the ball so what
00:32:22.970 --> 00:32:27.409
should we do in the offseason yeah
00:32:27.409 --> 00:32:30.020
pushes and hooks for almost twenty years
00:32:30.020 --> 00:32:34.220
coming in from Lisa she was asking how
00:32:34.220 --> 00:32:36.409
to avoid hitting the club coming to
00:32:36.409 --> 00:32:39.590
shallow into the ball so to shallow into
00:32:39.590 --> 00:32:41.179
the wall would give kind of the holistic
00:32:41.179 --> 00:32:43.039
approach to solving hooks because I know
00:32:43.039 --> 00:32:45.470
that that's a really frustrating miss
00:32:45.470 --> 00:32:49.850
for a lot of golfers to solve hooks you
00:32:49.850 --> 00:32:54.870
have to slow down the club passing the
00:32:54.870 --> 00:32:56.000
[Music]
00:32:56.000 --> 00:32:58.400
or the the clubhead passing the grip on
00:32:58.400 --> 00:32:59.660
the way through because that tends to
00:32:59.660 --> 00:33:03.110
close the club face and that will happen
00:33:03.110 --> 00:33:04.820
more when you're having some early
00:33:04.820 --> 00:33:06.920
extension so if I'm moving away from the
00:33:06.920 --> 00:33:08.840
golf ball the club is gonna pass like
00:33:08.840 --> 00:33:11.450
this and that causes the club face to
00:33:11.450 --> 00:33:14.810
get closed very quickly all right so it
00:33:14.810 --> 00:33:19.280
closes more like that so in order to
00:33:19.280 --> 00:33:23.450
solve the hook I have to get more let's
00:33:23.450 --> 00:33:25.580
say shaft lean and I have to have more
00:33:25.580 --> 00:33:27.740
body rotation on the way through in
00:33:27.740 --> 00:33:30.290
order to have the grip speed usually
00:33:30.290 --> 00:33:33.110
when you're getting too shallow on the
00:33:33.110 --> 00:33:33.740
downswing
00:33:33.740 --> 00:33:35.870
it's almost a hundred percent time
00:33:35.870 --> 00:33:38.390
coming from the body either going into
00:33:38.390 --> 00:33:40.550
too much early extension or going into
00:33:40.550 --> 00:33:44.510
too much side bend too much early
00:33:44.510 --> 00:33:50.020
extension usually comes from either
00:33:50.260 --> 00:33:53.300
either too much early extension coming
00:33:53.300 --> 00:33:56.900
more from either extending the back in
00:33:56.900 --> 00:33:59.330
order to help pull down on the club or
00:33:59.330 --> 00:34:04.700
going into side Bend as a way to adjust
00:34:04.700 --> 00:34:11.510
for too steep of a top or adjusting for
00:34:11.510 --> 00:34:13.340
let's say my arms are a little steep and
00:34:13.340 --> 00:34:17.510
then I side bend to balance that out so
00:34:17.510 --> 00:34:19.430
usually with hooking the ball the first
00:34:19.430 --> 00:34:24.380
thing I do is I work on grip grip speed
00:34:24.380 --> 00:34:26.330
and torso rotation while staying in your
00:34:26.330 --> 00:34:27.860
posture so basically working on a good
00:34:27.860 --> 00:34:29.840
follow-through position and making sure
00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:31.640
that I'm not having all the speed down
00:34:31.640 --> 00:34:35.030
at my hands that that the grip and my
00:34:35.030 --> 00:34:37.100
body are continuing to move on the way
00:34:37.100 --> 00:34:40.240
through that helps move the path more
00:34:40.240 --> 00:34:46.220
left and if I work on delaying the club
00:34:46.220 --> 00:34:47.930
passing this way that tends to hold the
00:34:47.930 --> 00:34:50.420
face open so stage one is kind of
00:34:50.420 --> 00:34:52.880
working on the body rotation on the way
00:34:52.880 --> 00:34:56.330
through and then seeing what ball flight
00:34:56.330 --> 00:34:58.400
reactions I might get to that so some
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:00.770
golfers will hit more pulls then I need
00:35:00.770 --> 00:35:03.110
to work on the path that about shaft
00:35:03.110 --> 00:35:04.640
parallel maybe I now I'm getting a
00:35:04.640 --> 00:35:06.710
little steep because my body is turning
00:35:06.710 --> 00:35:11.900
so I'm hitting more poles or I'm what
00:35:11.900 --> 00:35:13.790
I'd say most common is I'm hanging them
00:35:13.790 --> 00:35:16.130
a little off to the right because now
00:35:16.130 --> 00:35:19.130
I've delayed the closing of the clubface
00:35:19.130 --> 00:35:22.790
and I've rotated my body and I have to
00:35:22.790 --> 00:35:24.290
work on getting a little bit earlier
00:35:24.290 --> 00:35:26.270
shaft rotation and closing the face
00:35:26.270 --> 00:35:28.430
through shaft rotation is usually the
00:35:28.430 --> 00:35:31.130
scariest part of solving a hook but it's
00:35:31.130 --> 00:35:33.920
also one of the most important skills
00:35:33.920 --> 00:35:37.460
that will eventually or quickly learn
00:35:37.460 --> 00:35:40.550
teach you how to get more shaft lean and
00:35:40.550 --> 00:35:44.540
get the club from coming too shallow so
00:35:44.540 --> 00:35:47.690
if your hook in the wall got a number of
00:35:47.690 --> 00:35:50.180
videos on the site on a high level of a
00:35:50.180 --> 00:35:51.950
hook and walking through how to get more
00:35:51.950 --> 00:35:54.980
of the hit my arms or pool noodle in the
00:35:54.980 --> 00:35:57.380
follow-through low to high like a bunch
00:35:57.380 --> 00:35:59.510
of drills working on that body rotation
00:35:59.510 --> 00:36:00.770
on the way through to avoid the stall
00:36:00.770 --> 00:36:03.230
and then figuring out your individual
00:36:03.230 --> 00:36:06.650
issues based on feedback there daniel is
00:36:06.650 --> 00:36:08.750
asking how does one get advanced notice
00:36:08.750 --> 00:36:12.440
of the live Q&A normally so if you
00:36:12.440 --> 00:36:13.940
subscribe to the YouTube channel they'll
00:36:13.940 --> 00:36:16.280
send you they'll give a little update
00:36:16.280 --> 00:36:18.770
when we're posting this today was a
00:36:18.770 --> 00:36:22.070
little bit of you know it was it was a
00:36:22.070 --> 00:36:23.960
little bit of a last-minute scheduling
00:36:23.960 --> 00:36:27.530
so we only decided or I I decided that I
00:36:27.530 --> 00:36:30.980
was gonna do this this morning I wasn't
00:36:30.980 --> 00:36:33.170
quite sure if my social calendar was
00:36:33.170 --> 00:36:36.460
gonna allow for it but normally I'll
00:36:36.460 --> 00:36:40.280
usually give a few days notice so you
00:36:40.280 --> 00:36:42.560
can either go to golf smart Academy and
00:36:42.560 --> 00:36:44.810
if you sign up for the free trial
00:36:44.810 --> 00:36:47.810
membership or if you remember we we send
00:36:47.810 --> 00:36:50.990
out the emails letting you know that
00:36:50.990 --> 00:36:54.350
it's going to happen and requesting any
00:36:54.350 --> 00:36:55.910
advanced questions those are the ones
00:36:55.910 --> 00:36:57.290
that will always get answered first
00:36:57.290 --> 00:36:59.420
otherwise if you subscribe to the
00:36:59.420 --> 00:37:02.210
YouTube channel then you'll get an
00:37:02.210 --> 00:37:05.570
update when when I schedule it and then
00:37:05.570 --> 00:37:08.780
an hour beforehand or right beforehand
00:37:08.780 --> 00:37:11.980
it'll give you another reminder
00:37:12.470 --> 00:37:18.099
I had one one more question that I
00:37:18.099 --> 00:37:20.930
already one more question that came in
00:37:20.930 --> 00:37:23.119
from Brent I talked about the tight t
00:37:23.119 --> 00:37:26.109
spine and glutes but he was also asking
00:37:26.109 --> 00:37:29.690
that so unfortunately the beginning of
00:37:29.690 --> 00:37:32.330
last year or the beginning of 2016 he
00:37:32.330 --> 00:37:35.840
was trying to restrict his hip turn and
00:37:35.840 --> 00:37:40.960
he think that in in trying to do so he
00:37:40.960 --> 00:37:45.500
created a right hip injury that could be
00:37:45.500 --> 00:37:52.820
more of a sciatic issue that is I it's
00:37:52.820 --> 00:37:54.859
not super common that we come just from
00:37:54.859 --> 00:37:57.020
restricting the hip but dealing with
00:37:57.020 --> 00:38:02.050
some sciatic issues is not uncommon so
00:38:02.050 --> 00:38:05.000
like let's let's break that down and
00:38:05.000 --> 00:38:07.190
talk about the two components one trying
00:38:07.190 --> 00:38:09.170
to restrict your hips earth here's where
00:38:09.170 --> 00:38:13.730
my take on that is some golfers we know
00:38:13.730 --> 00:38:16.010
from 3d that the the average is that the
00:38:16.010 --> 00:38:19.430
the trail leg is going to straighten you
00:38:19.430 --> 00:38:21.140
know 10 degrees 8 degrees somewhere on
00:38:21.140 --> 00:38:23.630
there so the tray legs gonna strain you
00:38:23.630 --> 00:38:26.140
don't want it to stay perfectly straight
00:38:26.140 --> 00:38:32.810
some golfers in especially with certain
00:38:32.810 --> 00:38:35.300
swing characteristics would like lock
00:38:35.300 --> 00:38:38.000
that leg out and go to the outside of
00:38:38.000 --> 00:38:39.530
the foot and shift on the front foot and
00:38:39.530 --> 00:38:42.530
by trying to keep that trail leg a
00:38:42.530 --> 00:38:45.200
little more flexed they would load up a
00:38:45.200 --> 00:38:48.800
little bit better in general I'm um I'm
00:38:48.800 --> 00:38:51.710
more of a fan of kind of free pelvis and
00:38:51.710 --> 00:38:54.020
free hip turn and the only time that
00:38:54.020 --> 00:38:55.910
someone will ever feel like they're
00:38:55.910 --> 00:38:57.560
getting more restricted is when they
00:38:57.560 --> 00:39:00.920
learn better foot to ground contact so
00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:03.650
if you if you learn how to stay more on
00:39:03.650 --> 00:39:05.900
the inside of the foot and not shift
00:39:05.900 --> 00:39:08.060
into your your toes or not shift to the
00:39:08.060 --> 00:39:10.280
outside the foot sometimes it will feel
00:39:10.280 --> 00:39:12.740
like you're keeping your leg more flexed
00:39:12.740 --> 00:39:15.320
but I'll usually show you on video it's
00:39:15.320 --> 00:39:17.359
not it's just by having better foot
00:39:17.359 --> 00:39:19.520
contact you're feeling more tension in
00:39:19.520 --> 00:39:23.180
the hamstring so that when you load it's
00:39:23.180 --> 00:39:25.030
all the way connected into the ground
00:39:25.030 --> 00:39:28.010
not just into the let's say the outside
00:39:28.010 --> 00:39:31.430
of the foot so that's where the
00:39:31.430 --> 00:39:33.140
interpretation of you gotta keep your
00:39:33.140 --> 00:39:37.670
trail leg bent as opposed to allowing it
00:39:37.670 --> 00:39:39.650
to straighten I think it relates to
00:39:39.650 --> 00:39:42.170
mostly what's going on at the foot not
00:39:42.170 --> 00:39:43.580
so much what's going on in the knee but
00:39:43.580 --> 00:39:45.140
it's easier to see the knee than it is
00:39:45.140 --> 00:39:47.839
to see what's happening at the foot if
00:39:47.839 --> 00:39:50.690
you okay now we've developed a situation
00:39:50.690 --> 00:39:53.119
where we created some issues that might
00:39:53.119 --> 00:39:57.440
be sciatic sciatica can come from disc
00:39:57.440 --> 00:39:59.750
issue so it can come from the sciatic
00:39:59.750 --> 00:40:01.550
nerve exiting out of the spine
00:40:01.550 --> 00:40:07.339
I believe it's levels l2 l3 l4 l5 s1 s2
00:40:07.339 --> 00:40:12.920
you can have you can have sciatic disc
00:40:12.920 --> 00:40:14.359
issues if you have some impingement
00:40:14.359 --> 00:40:21.130
there you can also have issues from
00:40:21.130 --> 00:40:22.940
tightness in certain muscles
00:40:22.940 --> 00:40:25.940
specifically the piriformis muscle so
00:40:25.940 --> 00:40:27.950
the piriformis muscle can be it goes
00:40:27.950 --> 00:40:31.640
from the inside of the sacrum to the to
00:40:31.640 --> 00:40:33.980
the outside of it and the sciatic nerve
00:40:33.980 --> 00:40:38.180
runs between it and the glute or in many
00:40:38.180 --> 00:40:40.130
cases it actually runs through the
00:40:40.130 --> 00:40:42.349
sciatica or through the piriformis so if
00:40:42.349 --> 00:40:45.950
you have tight piriformis which is one
00:40:45.950 --> 00:40:50.260
of your three main pelvic floor muscles
00:40:50.260 --> 00:40:53.599
so if you have imbalance in your pelvic
00:40:53.599 --> 00:40:56.000
floor if you have overly restricted
00:40:56.000 --> 00:41:00.170
internal rotation those can create some
00:41:00.170 --> 00:41:03.560
sciatic issues from more the piriformis
00:41:03.560 --> 00:41:07.640
as opposed to from the actual disc or
00:41:07.640 --> 00:41:09.589
the joint or the sciatic nerve coming
00:41:09.589 --> 00:41:14.210
out of the spine so that would get like
00:41:14.210 --> 00:41:17.000
I'd anytime there's pain I want to work
00:41:17.000 --> 00:41:19.250
with somebody who understands the pain
00:41:19.250 --> 00:41:21.710
problems and can help you balance it
00:41:21.710 --> 00:41:25.160
there so I double I absolutely go to see
00:41:25.160 --> 00:41:29.780
someone but you know if if you've seen
00:41:29.780 --> 00:41:31.910
someone and they haven't tried looking
00:41:31.910 --> 00:41:32.930
at
00:41:32.930 --> 00:41:35.329
if they haven't tried anything revolving
00:41:35.329 --> 00:41:37.130
around piriformis and balancing your
00:41:37.130 --> 00:41:39.680
pelvic floor then perhaps you can find
00:41:39.680 --> 00:41:41.589
somebody else who might be in that same
00:41:41.589 --> 00:41:45.829
area who might have a better let's say
00:41:45.829 --> 00:41:48.559
toolbox being able to do it okay a
00:41:48.559 --> 00:41:53.539
couple questions come in from Golden
00:41:53.539 --> 00:41:57.200
Gate I'm a right-handed golfer and
00:41:57.200 --> 00:41:59.380
notice that I've lost flexibility on the
00:41:59.380 --> 00:42:00.619
follow-through
00:42:00.619 --> 00:42:03.049
I am tight on the follow-through but
00:42:03.049 --> 00:42:05.150
more flexibility on my backswing is
00:42:05.150 --> 00:42:08.799
there a way to solve that imbalance um
00:42:08.799 --> 00:42:10.430
yes
00:42:10.430 --> 00:42:14.089
doing you know that's a normal pattern
00:42:14.089 --> 00:42:17.479
for playing golf unfortunately because
00:42:17.479 --> 00:42:20.569
we build more resistance with that right
00:42:20.569 --> 00:42:26.630
side compared to the left side the often
00:42:26.630 --> 00:42:30.160
times you will have a greater degree of
00:42:30.160 --> 00:42:32.210
flexibility turning in your backswing
00:42:32.210 --> 00:42:34.489
than you will on the follow-through just
00:42:34.489 --> 00:42:37.099
from the natural balance that's created
00:42:37.099 --> 00:42:40.339
with the sport so often swinging
00:42:40.339 --> 00:42:42.529
left-handed and hitting some balls
00:42:42.529 --> 00:42:44.359
left-handed in the offseason can be
00:42:44.359 --> 00:42:46.130
another good project I especially give
00:42:46.130 --> 00:42:48.650
that to a lot of juniors and if you get
00:42:48.650 --> 00:42:51.079
used to doing that then you can do some
00:42:51.079 --> 00:42:52.989
practice swings on the course
00:42:52.989 --> 00:42:55.849
left-handed to counterbalance the
00:42:55.849 --> 00:42:57.349
imbalance that will naturally happen
00:42:57.349 --> 00:42:59.739
from swinging multiple times
00:42:59.739 --> 00:43:04.430
right-handed but otherwise in general in
00:43:04.430 --> 00:43:06.460
the gym you want to try to be more
00:43:06.460 --> 00:43:12.920
symmetric so by doing a you know a
00:43:12.920 --> 00:43:14.839
balanced strength training by doing
00:43:14.839 --> 00:43:18.289
posture work by doing the eldona which
00:43:18.289 --> 00:43:19.969
is one of my favorite exercises for
00:43:19.969 --> 00:43:21.920
working on the spine you can hopefully
00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:25.719
help minimize some of those imbalances
00:43:25.719 --> 00:43:30.229
but again if it's you know if you're if
00:43:30.229 --> 00:43:33.519
you're tight on the follow-through
00:43:33.519 --> 00:43:36.200
you can adjust for it by flaring the
00:43:36.200 --> 00:43:39.920
lead foot out you could long-term do
00:43:39.920 --> 00:43:42.499
some left-handed swings short-term you
00:43:42.499 --> 00:43:43.730
could do
00:43:43.730 --> 00:43:47.150
kind of flexibility and stability work
00:43:47.150 --> 00:43:49.370
more focusing on that follow-through
00:43:49.370 --> 00:43:53.090
side but I'm working on the little video
00:43:53.090 --> 00:43:55.610
related that because many golfers who
00:43:55.610 --> 00:43:57.470
think that they have flexibility issues
00:43:57.470 --> 00:44:00.620
more have a swing issue and it just
00:44:00.620 --> 00:44:03.860
shows up in because they haven't rotated
00:44:03.860 --> 00:44:05.480
like many golfers think that they have a
00:44:05.480 --> 00:44:06.980
flexibility issue because their body
00:44:06.980 --> 00:44:10.190
isn't rotated at impact but if you're
00:44:10.190 --> 00:44:11.420
saying that it's a follow-through
00:44:11.420 --> 00:44:13.490
restriction where I'm not getting to
00:44:13.490 --> 00:44:15.230
this position at any point in time
00:44:15.230 --> 00:44:17.690
that's probably more of a flexibility
00:44:17.690 --> 00:44:20.060
issue because if it's just that impact
00:44:20.060 --> 00:44:22.130
but then you're able to rotate into a
00:44:22.130 --> 00:44:23.060
follow-through
00:44:23.060 --> 00:44:24.650
it's more of a timing it's not a
00:44:24.650 --> 00:44:28.540
physical restriction okay and another
00:44:28.540 --> 00:44:32.630
question from Troy M does the lead hip
00:44:32.630 --> 00:44:35.570
go into external rotation during the
00:44:35.570 --> 00:44:37.420
backswing or should it stay neutral
00:44:37.420 --> 00:44:40.070
letting them knee move more towards the
00:44:40.070 --> 00:44:44.180
golf ball the the hip will go into
00:44:44.180 --> 00:44:47.570
external rotation but you can also go
00:44:47.570 --> 00:44:50.210
into external rotation and have the knee
00:44:50.210 --> 00:44:52.100
moving in towards the golf ball it's
00:44:52.100 --> 00:44:57.350
just with the amount of rotation of the
00:44:57.350 --> 00:45:00.410
pelvis during the backswing it would be
00:45:00.410 --> 00:45:02.600
virtually impossible not to go into
00:45:02.600 --> 00:45:07.430
external rotation with that lead hip so
00:45:07.430 --> 00:45:11.780
I tend to train more of the awareness of
00:45:11.780 --> 00:45:14.090
the trail side hip during the or the
00:45:14.090 --> 00:45:15.980
trail side foot and the trail side hip
00:45:15.980 --> 00:45:19.010
during the backswing and then kind of
00:45:19.010 --> 00:45:21.230
accommodate what's more comfortable with
00:45:21.230 --> 00:45:23.240
the lead hip as opposed to focusing too
00:45:23.240 --> 00:45:26.810
much on forcing external rotation you
00:45:26.810 --> 00:45:29.480
know a lot of what happens at the hip I
00:45:29.480 --> 00:45:32.780
think is better trained at the feet I'll
00:45:32.780 --> 00:45:34.550
use awareness drills to kind of help
00:45:34.550 --> 00:45:37.730
people feel what the hip should be doing
00:45:37.730 --> 00:45:40.430
but by learning how to feel the foot
00:45:40.430 --> 00:45:43.040
against the ground it gives more of a
00:45:43.040 --> 00:45:44.810
reason for the hip to do the right thing
00:45:44.810 --> 00:45:46.460
instead of just artificially trying to
00:45:46.460 --> 00:45:49.790
create it doing the right thing
00:45:49.790 --> 00:45:52.130
so the problem is if you try and force
00:45:52.130 --> 00:45:53.910
external rotation of the
00:45:53.910 --> 00:45:56.150
I think that'll mess up your backswing
00:45:56.150 --> 00:46:00.839
or if you try and force it to stay
00:46:00.839 --> 00:46:04.700
neutral and move towards the golf ball
00:46:04.700 --> 00:46:07.920
if you're doing that purely from the hip
00:46:07.920 --> 00:46:11.250
there would be the fear and the tendency
00:46:11.250 --> 00:46:13.260
that you could get a little bit too much
00:46:13.260 --> 00:46:15.750
towards the outside of the trail hip in
00:46:15.750 --> 00:46:18.450
order to or outside of the trail foot in
00:46:18.450 --> 00:46:22.079
order to make that happen so I'd be I'd
00:46:22.079 --> 00:46:24.599
be a little careful with forcing the
00:46:24.599 --> 00:46:27.150
external rotation of the lead hip during
00:46:27.150 --> 00:46:30.530
the backswing unless you you've
00:46:30.530 --> 00:46:33.030
confirmed on video that when you do that
00:46:33.030 --> 00:46:36.170
your feet work better against the ground
00:46:36.170 --> 00:46:41.460
okay so if any one hand it has any last
00:46:41.460 --> 00:46:44.160
questions getting close to wrapping up
00:46:44.160 --> 00:46:47.520
this one never quite know which
00:46:47.520 --> 00:46:49.020
direction we go based on your questions
00:46:49.020 --> 00:46:51.599
but they're always fun to fun to try and
00:46:51.599 --> 00:46:55.710
be prepared for I do want to remind
00:46:55.710 --> 00:46:58.260
everyone that I'll have some links in
00:46:58.260 --> 00:47:00.240
the description below for both the
00:47:00.240 --> 00:47:04.049
website as well as the book closing in
00:47:04.049 --> 00:47:06.900
on selling 500 copies of the stock tour
00:47:06.900 --> 00:47:10.260
swing this is kind of my my manual for
00:47:10.260 --> 00:47:12.539
understanding the big global picture of
00:47:12.539 --> 00:47:15.500
how the different pieces match together
00:47:15.500 --> 00:47:17.819
really help you understand how to read
00:47:17.819 --> 00:47:22.380
feedback and how to prioritize by
00:47:22.380 --> 00:47:24.569
understanding your pattern prioritize
00:47:24.569 --> 00:47:27.210
what you need to work on when you play
00:47:27.210 --> 00:47:30.630
as well as here during the offseason so
00:47:30.630 --> 00:47:33.420
just a quick reminder on the offseason
00:47:33.420 --> 00:47:35.069
stuff make sure you're working on some
00:47:35.069 --> 00:47:37.890
flexibility some core definitely do some
00:47:37.890 --> 00:47:40.470
balance training if you're if you've got
00:47:40.470 --> 00:47:42.390
enough time then you can layer in some
00:47:42.390 --> 00:47:45.450
strength and some power and possibly
00:47:45.450 --> 00:47:48.569
some endurance and even cardio from a
00:47:48.569 --> 00:47:50.910
game perspective you want to work on
00:47:50.910 --> 00:47:52.680
your weaknesses here in the offseason
00:47:52.680 --> 00:47:54.660
and then focus a little bit more on the
00:47:54.660 --> 00:47:58.170
strengths during the in season and I
00:47:58.170 --> 00:48:00.270
like to vary what I'm working on a
00:48:00.270 --> 00:48:03.180
little more frequently in the offseason
00:48:03.180 --> 00:48:04.150
then
00:48:04.150 --> 00:48:08.590
in the during the during the season so
00:48:08.590 --> 00:48:10.900
that I've had my brain basically has
00:48:10.900 --> 00:48:13.390
more options that I can then recall so I
00:48:13.390 --> 00:48:15.070
don't have to learn as many new things
00:48:15.070 --> 00:48:17.050
during the season I just have to
00:48:17.050 --> 00:48:19.060
remember what worked for me during my
00:48:19.060 --> 00:48:22.930
practice during the offseason so thank
00:48:22.930 --> 00:48:24.910
you for all of you for your questions
00:48:24.910 --> 00:48:26.590
and for joining me for another one of
00:48:26.590 --> 00:48:30.340
these Facebook live Q&A s seems to be
00:48:30.340 --> 00:48:32.170
pretty well received so we'll definitely
00:48:32.170 --> 00:48:34.480
keep doing them if you have any other
00:48:34.480 --> 00:48:36.730
questions you can email us at support at
00:48:36.730 --> 00:48:40.450
golf smart academy.com and we'll start
00:48:40.450 --> 00:48:42.790
building a cue for the next one
00:48:42.790 --> 00:48:48.430
but good luck in 2018 and my pleasure
00:48:48.430 --> 00:48:50.770
thanks for all the all the compliments
00:48:50.770 --> 00:48:53.260
all the questions good luck in 2018
00:48:53.260 --> 00:48:56.230
absolutely have a plan stick to that
00:48:56.230 --> 00:48:59.350
plan and as always from golf smart
00:48:59.350 --> 00:49:04.170
Academy happy golfing that's a lot
