00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:03.300
in this golf smart insight we're gonna

00:00:03.300 --> 00:00:05.940
talk about supination so there's been a

00:00:05.940 --> 00:00:08.340
lot of talk in the facebook chat rooms

00:00:08.340 --> 00:00:11.400
about the importance of supination and

00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:12.870
so I thought I'd make a quick video to

00:00:12.870 --> 00:00:15.570
kind of help clarify what the heck we're

00:00:15.570 --> 00:00:16.379
talking about when we're talking about

00:00:16.379 --> 00:00:20.010
supination so as an easy 3d I've got

00:00:20.010 --> 00:00:22.769
some pins rubber-banded to my form so I

00:00:22.769 --> 00:00:24.840
kind of look like so now if I have my

00:00:24.840 --> 00:00:26.970
arm straight out in front of me or off

00:00:26.970 --> 00:00:29.269
to my side this is essentially where we

00:00:29.269 --> 00:00:31.830
digitize when we are looking at 3d

00:00:31.830 --> 00:00:34.410
graphs of supination now you can see

00:00:34.410 --> 00:00:36.930
that these two pens are roughly parallel

00:00:36.930 --> 00:00:37.469
to each other

00:00:37.469 --> 00:00:40.440
this would be my neutral so when i was

00:00:40.440 --> 00:00:43.140
when i supinate i'm going to have the

00:00:43.140 --> 00:00:45.899
black pen or my wrist pen pointed off to

00:00:45.899 --> 00:00:48.570
the right of the red pen or my elbow pen

00:00:48.570 --> 00:00:51.899
this is supination if I was to rotate

00:00:51.899 --> 00:00:54.180
palm down just like so the black pen is

00:00:54.180 --> 00:00:57.300
pointing off to the left of my red pen

00:00:57.300 --> 00:00:58.949
from my perspective this would be

00:00:58.949 --> 00:01:03.180
pronation so anytime the black pen is

00:01:03.180 --> 00:01:04.739
pointed to the right of the red pen

00:01:04.739 --> 00:01:07.170
that's going to be supination which

00:01:07.170 --> 00:01:09.960
means this is open chain I could also do

00:01:09.960 --> 00:01:13.560
this so if I do that the black pen is

00:01:13.560 --> 00:01:15.390
now pointing to the right of the red

00:01:15.390 --> 00:01:18.509
then I just supinated the about the same

00:01:18.509 --> 00:01:20.909
amount as when I did it here so that's

00:01:20.909 --> 00:01:22.530
close che and supination that's closed

00:01:22.530 --> 00:01:24.750
chain pronation where basically my wrist

00:01:24.750 --> 00:01:28.140
is not moving and my elbow is so it's

00:01:28.140 --> 00:01:30.390
not quite as easy as it appears because

00:01:30.390 --> 00:01:32.189
you have to look at where the elbow and

00:01:32.189 --> 00:01:33.869
the wrist are in relationship to each

00:01:33.869 --> 00:01:35.939
other to see how much supination has

00:01:35.939 --> 00:01:38.280
happened so now let's go through some of

00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:41.250
the actual in golf positions so if I was

00:01:41.250 --> 00:01:43.200
to get into kind of my setup position

00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:44.880
which looks something like this

00:01:44.880 --> 00:01:46.380
you can see that the black pen is

00:01:46.380 --> 00:01:48.390
slightly to the right so I'm slightly

00:01:48.390 --> 00:01:51.750
supinated in my setup position and then

00:01:51.750 --> 00:01:53.990
I go up to the top of the swing you

00:01:53.990 --> 00:01:55.829
internal right there and you can see

00:01:55.829 --> 00:01:57.630
that the black pen is to the left of

00:01:57.630 --> 00:02:00.570
this so I've pronated probably about 40

00:02:00.570 --> 00:02:03.450
degrees or so I don't have a ton now I'm

00:02:03.450 --> 00:02:05.159
gonna go down towards what I consider a

00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:06.990
delivery position and if I bring this

00:02:06.990 --> 00:02:09.209
back up you can see that the black pen

00:02:09.209 --> 00:02:11.370
is to the right so I went from there at

00:02:11.370 --> 00:02:12.760
the top of the swing to

00:02:12.760 --> 00:02:15.340
they're down in delivery position and

00:02:15.340 --> 00:02:17.140
then as I continue to go through impact

00:02:17.140 --> 00:02:19.750
they get I get a little bit pronated and

00:02:19.750 --> 00:02:22.000
then as I go through my finish I get

00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:25.000
very much pronated so that's looking at

00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:26.950
the lead wrist now instead of switching

00:02:26.950 --> 00:02:28.840
this will just pretend I'm going to

00:02:28.840 --> 00:02:35.590
swing Lefty so there's a kind of a wide

00:02:35.590 --> 00:02:37.030
range of where this pronation supination

00:02:37.030 --> 00:02:38.470
but a lot of guys are a little bit

00:02:38.470 --> 00:02:40.329
supinated because that lead elbow is

00:02:40.329 --> 00:02:41.980
gonna be pointing in the direction of

00:02:41.980 --> 00:02:44.829
the target instead of in towards me so

00:02:44.829 --> 00:02:48.099
there I'm slightly supinated go up

00:02:48.099 --> 00:02:49.780
towards the top of the swing I've

00:02:49.780 --> 00:02:52.659
clearly pronated it's pointing off to

00:02:52.659 --> 00:02:56.379
the left and as I come down I'm much

00:02:56.379 --> 00:03:01.079
more pronated than I was at setup and

00:03:01.079 --> 00:03:03.760
then that's going to allow for this fast

00:03:03.760 --> 00:03:06.790
speed of supination while I'm going to

00:03:06.790 --> 00:03:08.829
be more pronated it's kind of the same

00:03:08.829 --> 00:03:11.409
as I can extend my legs very quickly

00:03:11.409 --> 00:03:14.109
when I go to jump even though my legs

00:03:14.109 --> 00:03:17.199
haven't straightened yet so when we come

00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:20.049
down into this position that if I'm in

00:03:20.049 --> 00:03:22.269
good delivery position my body's in the

00:03:22.269 --> 00:03:24.430
right position I've got good a deduction

00:03:24.430 --> 00:03:26.949
of this trail arm or a deduction of this

00:03:26.949 --> 00:03:29.199
trail or I'm sorry that's going to allow

00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:31.959
me to supinate and not have the clubface

00:03:31.959 --> 00:03:34.690
get too closed or have the path go too

00:03:34.690 --> 00:03:37.540
far left so it allows me to have a good

00:03:37.540 --> 00:03:39.699
shallow angle of attack as well as to

00:03:39.699 --> 00:03:41.230
really extend those arms through the

00:03:41.230 --> 00:03:43.870
shot which gives me a very wide arc

00:03:43.870 --> 00:03:46.660
width which helps with my consistency so

00:03:46.660 --> 00:03:48.810
hopefully this video helps you clarify

00:03:48.810 --> 00:03:52.419
when you're looking at supination and

00:03:52.419 --> 00:03:54.849
then of course why we want to have

00:03:54.849 --> 00:03:57.669
supination that's a whole different

00:03:57.669 --> 00:03:59.319
animal so to speak but this should at

00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:00.519
least help you clarify when you're

00:04:00.519 --> 00:04:04.209
looking at someone on video give you a

00:04:04.209 --> 00:04:05.949
little bit better guess as to well are

00:04:05.949 --> 00:04:07.329
they protonated are they supinated

00:04:07.329 --> 00:04:09.010
here's kind of an easy reference an easy

00:04:09.010 --> 00:04:11.909
way for you to look at it
