Why Get Tested?
We have identified specific physical and biomechanical attributes that define golf swing proficiency.
- Do you have the requisite flexibility for a proficient golf swing?
- Do you have the proper swing biomechanics to utilize elastic energy for maximal power?
What Is Involved?
- Trunk and hip flexibility assessment to relate flexibility to golf swing biomechanics:
- X-Factor – pelvis-trunk dissociation
- Kinematic Sequence – pelvis trunk energy transfer
- Ground Reaction Forces – weight shift
- Golf swing biomechanics assessment using state of the art high speed cameras and force plates
What Is the End Product?
Golfers will receive a comprehensive report that will include appropriate exercises to improve flexibility and/or swing biomechanics if deficiencies are identified.
