He’s going to be a king! As Shaquille O’Neill approached the green, many of us felt the exact same way. But it wasn’t so.
Did you know that Rory McIlroy is a larger and more muscular player than Rory McIlroy. What is it that Rory’s drives are consistently 310 yards long, while Rory with his large physique cannot get the ball off the fairway?
Muscle strength is required to move mass. It is necessary to move mass in a specific arc, as with the golf swing. This requires effective and precise muscle recruitment.
Isometric exercise is a great choice for golfers because it can be done in 3 ways.
The first is a simple exercise that allows maximal muscular recruitment and does not build muscle mass.
Furthermore, properly executed, they can increase the muscle contractions throughout a golfer’s range of motion.
The third is that they increase maturity of the muscles mass through increased capillary perfusion, blood flow to the fibers and capillary perfusion.
These characteristics translate into the golf swing being efficient, powerful and long-lasting. These qualities are FoundationalYou will be able to produce a consistent, powerful and controlled golf swing.
A building can only be as strong as its foundation. If we are going to make a great golf swing it is crucial that we have a solid foundation.
But, the foundation does not make the entire structure. It is often hard to see, so the key to a great golf swing starts here. It is a great place to start.
Muscular Recruitment:
All of us have experienced the ratchety and jittery motions that come with trying to move something that is challenging our muscles.
This is a sign that one muscle pair isn’t recruiting enough muscle fibers to support the load. Because the movement is fluid and quick, this is not often noticed during a golf swing.
Exercises with submaximal loads will affect the neurologic responses of muscles to stimulate muscle fibers which have become dormant after injury, disuse, or neglect.
A lot of bodies are required to push a vehicle out of the mud. Each pusher will use less energy if everyone is working together. Efficiency of movement is this.
Muscle contractions are increased
Activating more muscle fibers results in greater efficiency and more power. This results in faster clubhead speeds at impact and quicker reaction time.
Muscle maturity is increasing
Muscle fibers move past each other during activity, causing contraction and relaxation of the muscle pairs.
Complex chemistry produces byproducts like lactic acid. They must be quickly removed from muscle to allow for fresh oxygenated blood to restore chemical balance.
Increased blood flow means muscles can recover faster and feel less fatigue during a round.
Do not delay!
