When you play golf, you’re not just “moving your body”, you’re rotating it from your toes to the tips of your fingers.
That’s why you need to focus on what allows your muscles to rotate and move freely…
The Fascia.
The fascia is a tissue that wraps all your muscles and connects them as you move your body…
And the problem is, your fascial system works just like peanut butter…
When peanut butter sits, it gets stiff.
When you stir it slowly, it starts moving again.
Your body works in a similar way.
When you sit too long, stretch random muscles, and train only in straight lines (like lifting weights in the gym)...
Your fascial system can get tighter, more restricted, and less fluid.
And when that happens, moving your body becomes difficult, as if something was holding your movements back…
That’s when your hips don’t rotate freely, and you feel locked up and stiff.
Your lower back starts compensating, and your swing takes a hit.
