Forces created through the ground are responsible for the golf swing. Learn where your forces are going and how you are creating your golf swing to make the changes you need!

Once you address the physical limitations, you then need to learn how to produce the forces that help you use your mobility and strength. Your golf game, chronic pain, and longevity will thank you!

Shoulder external rotation is critical to the golf swing, especially on the trail shoulder.

Check for access to this range of motion passively and actively with this table range of motion test and the shoulder 90/90 test from TPI.

For ways to actively improve this range of motion and use it in the golf swing, check out the full video on YouTube at "Serve The Tray Golf Drill [Deliver The Platter]"

Club fittings are much more than just extending or shortening the club. Club fitters are addressing endless data to find the right fit for you, helping to improve consistency and efficiency in the swing.

Having clubs that work WITH you will absolutely make an impact on pain and injury as well. Getting fitted or setting up a plan to get fitted should be a part of the conversation with your rehab professional!

This lunge with rotation and tilt variation is fantastic for encouraging mobility at the spine while asking for strength and stability from the lower half.

This combination is common in sports and daily life. For people with low back pain, it is not inly important to work on core stability and stability patterns, but we also need to encourage movement from the spine again. This is a fantastic drill to help drive this motion from the spine again!

Test-intervene-retest.

For golfers with low back pain, it is extremely common to find missing range of motion in one direction or more. This usually shows up as flexion restrictions like we have here.

This Nashville golfer suffered from almost 2 decades of low back pain, to the point where he almost swore off golf entirely. Thats when he made the call.

As we addressed his low back pain, we looked at and attacked all functional limitations that were playing a role in his chronic pain. The spine being limited in and refusing to access flexion was once a protective mechanism, but is now a key driver of pain. Restoring flexion eases the brain and the nervous systems pain response while taking load and stress off the structures of the lumbar spine.

Make sure you are being assessed in all planes of motions, at and beyond the site of pain!

This is a great move for training the hip flexors while using them to both support the trunk and raise the hip at the same time.

These are both important functions of the hip flexors, creating stability at the spine or movement at the hip.

That being said, chronic tightness or dysfunction of these muscles can create excessive pull at the low back where they attach. For some people, this plays a role in their low back symptoms and golf performance issues. Work this exercise in to train these muscles and improve capacity!

In this video, we talk about the "serve the tray" swing drill. This is a common drill that helps golfers maintain a more neutral swing plane. It is very common for this drill to feel uncomfortable or even painful in the shoulder for some golfers.

To get the most from this drill and to be able to do it, pain free, we need access to full shoulder external rotation mobility AND we need the motor control and stability at the muscles of the shoulder to control this motion.

Only then will we succeed with this drill. If controlling your trail shoulder is a problem that keeps coming up for you, consider physical restrictions as being a major factor in your golf performance.

Check out this variation to the kickstand hinge.

In this variation, we are creating lateral tilt to the pelvis while maintaining stability at the low back and hip.

This is a fantastic drill to work in strength and stability around muscles at the side of the pelvis and hip. These are critical for the golf swing, especially as we learn to create speed and control in our weight shift in the frontal plane.
