Golf

One rotation, the same one, all day.

What it asks of you

Clubhead speed comes from the ground and from the ability to separate hips from shoulders. Rotational power, thoracic mobility and hip strength, plus the endurance to swing as well on the eighteenth as on the first.

Where to build durability

Lower back and lead hip. Rotation trained deliberately protects the back that rotation otherwise punishes.

Training guidance, not medical advice. Pain that persists is a question for a clinician, not a programme.
