Your rear glute isn’t weak because you need more squats.
It’s weak because the foot below it isn’t giving the brain a stable signal.

In this clip, I test this golfer’s rear-leg glute medius and it tests weak.
Instead of “strengthening,” we mobilize a small joint on the outside of the foot (the cuboid).

👉 Retest immediately…
👉 Glute fires stronger
👉 Better stability, rotation, and control through the swing

Why this matters for your handicap:
When the rear glute isn’t online, your body steals motion from the low back, hips, or knees—leading to inconsistent contact, lost power, and compensations under pressure.

Fix the input first.
Then the strength shows up without grinding reps.

If your swing feels different day-to-day or your trail side never feels solid, this is where I look.

Comment “GLUTES” or DM me if you want to see if your feet are holding your swing back.

⛳️🧠 Struggling to get into your hip without forcing it? Try this.

Most golfers attack hip flexion by stretching the hip harder.
But the fastest way to unlock it often isn’t local — it’s neurological.

When you move the opposing joint (in this case, the right shoulder moving into posterior circles / extension), you give the brain a new reference point for safety and control. That can immediately reduce guarding and allow the hip to move more freely.

This works because the brain organizes movement globally, not muscle by muscle.
Change the input somewhere else in the system, and the output at the hip can change instantly.

That’s why some golfers notice:
• Deeper, cleaner hip flexion
• Less pinching or stiffness
• A smoother setup and backswing feel

Try the drill exactly as shown in the video and re-test your hip right after.
If this helped, save it and share it with a golfer who always feels “stuck” in their hips.

🦷💥 Before you try to rotate harder, try this jaw test.

Most people try to create rotation by stretching harder or forcing mobility.
But rotation isn’t a flexibility problem — it’s a neurological permission problem.

The trigeminal nerve (your primary jaw nerve) feeds directly into the brainstem and postural control system. When you bite on the correct side, it can increase extensor tone and give your brain a stronger, safer base.

More stability = more rotational freedom.
Not less tension — better organization.

This works because the brain will only allow rotation when it senses enough stability through the jaw, neck, and trunk. Change the sensory input and you change the output.

Try the test in the video and notice what happens to your rotation right away.
If this clicks, save this and share it with someone who feels “stuck” rotating

Axillary nerve tension (opposite side) for golfers ⛳️

If your shoulder feels tight, weak, or “blocked” at the top of your swing, this is often a neural tension issue, not just a mobility problem.

👉 Perform this on the opposite side of the shoulder in pain
👉 Move slowly
👉 Keep tension at only 2–3/10 (never aggressive)

The goal isn’t to stretch — it’s to tell the nervous system you’re safe, so the shoulder can move freely and stabilize under speed.

Done right, this can instantly improve:
• Shoulder comfort
• Arm speed
• Club control through impact
