The stability of the lower body is crucial to a powerful and dependable golf
swing. It is the foundation for your golf swing and no less important than
the foundation of a house. It is your anchor to the ground and as they say
in rock climbing, if you ain't got a great anchor, you ain't got nothing.
So how do you strengthen the lower body for a one plane swing? I have two
excellent exercises in this video for the advanced athlete that if performed
just a few times per week will dramatically increase the coordination and
control of your lower body.
The first exercise is a bit simpler and safer but no less explosive than
the second. As with all exercise, it should be done with care and under the
supervision of a professional and I assume no responsibility if you break
your neck! But for the advanced athlete looking to add 10 more yards to his
or her drive, this is an excellent place to start.
As you perform these exercises, focus on exploding up with everything you
have while maintaining control and rhythm, just as you would in a golf swing.
You will only get out of the exercises what you put into them, so don't be
afraid to push yourself with some intensity, and as always, be sure to fully
warm up before performing these or any other exercises.
