Download or read book Yoga for Golf written by Ervin Ruhe and published by . This book was released on 2012-07-26 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lot of golfers fail to make the very beneficial association between golf and Yoga, and you know what? The fact is that Yoga is increasingly being seen as a great way to improve a person?s performance and skill in a number of sports?not just golf. If you are both a golfer and also possess the knowledge of what specific Yoga exercises and poses to do, you are going to be able to dramatically improve your golf game! In addition, you will also have an edge over your fellow golfers who still have not yet discovered the amazing benefits that Yoga can provide to one?s golf game, in which you will read about all sorts of eye-opening golf tips to improve your game. Yoga is a wondrous physical, spiritual and mental discipline because it improves the quality of your life, and that extends even to your golf game! You could also just keep doing what you have been doing without any results. This important foundation is the human body, and, more importantly, various aspects of it, such as its trunk, its hips and its abdominals. With Yoga, you can powerfully build up these integral body areas that are vital to great golf performance!The game of golf is one that is really centered around the golf swing; if you do not swing your golf club properly, you will have no luck at all in getting anywhere in golf! This is where Yoga comes in, let me tell you. First of all, just think about the typical swing of the average golfer: It's all centered on the abdominal/core area of the human body, which is the trunk/torso, essentially. Being able to move this core area of the body with both power and stability is what drives the effectiveness of the golf swing. As such, the success of the swing of an average golfer will be largely dependent on the strength and the stability of this core area of the body. Any time you see a professional golfer who has an absolutely awesome and powerful swing, you should realize that this means that his or her core is highly developed. Yoga is perfect for building up this part of the body. Take, for instance, the Yoga plank poseThe hips are enormously important, too, when it comes to swinging the golf club effectively and with power. If you have ever observed?I mean, really, really observed?a golfer swinging his club, you are going to notice that it is all based on his or her hip rotation. In fact, a golfer without much flexibility or range of motion in his or her hips is going to do very, very poorly at the game! Additionally, a golfer who possesses very good flexibility in his or her hips is also likelier to be able to hit the golf ball with greater amounts of both power and speed! What golfer does not want to hit the golf ball with greater power and speed? There is a multitude of Yoga exercises that can help you develop greater hip flexibility, resulting in greater power and speed in your golf swing. You may have noted that quite a bit of golfers actually suffer from rounded shoulders. Yes, I realize I used the word ?suffer? because rounded shoulders are really a postural defect. What?s more is that said rounded shoulders are actually going to have an adverse effect on the golfer?s golf game. You see, if you have rounded shoulders as a golfer, you are going to be subject to an incomplete rotation on your golf swing. In other words, rounded shoulders will retard your rotation and cause you poorer performance on the golf course! However, this is nothing that Yoga can?t handle, especially the specific pose called the Yoga Cobra Pose, which works to correct this regrettable, postural defect of rounded shoulders in a golfer. In it, you will discover such effective remedies as the Yoga Cobra Pose for potential postural defects that you have that prevent you from reaching the full potential of your golf game.I have talked to golfers, and I know that they constantly want to improve their golf game. You can find a myriad of golf tips that teach you all about using the wondrous, all-natural discipline of Yoga to improve golf!

Download or read book Good Golf Using Your Natural Ability written by Greg Luckett and published by Greg Luckett. This book was released on 2023-03-14 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you look at good golfers and wish you had their natural ability? We are all programmed for natural ability and movement Our bodies are programmed to instinctively perform athletic movements with balance and co-ordination, like walking, riding a bicycle, roller skating, swimming, and many more. So you do have the natural ability for a good golf swing, and to play good golf. Learn how to build your best golf swing using the natural ability that you are programmed with! Without any awareness of how the body and mind work for you, many people never learn to feel the natural movement and allow the body to develop it’s own natural swing style. Without understanding this and allowing it to happen, you may never reach your potential and will always struggle for consistency. Most elite players on tour started swinging a golf club when they were small children, their mind and body naturally developed this ability without them being aware they were doing so. Children at a young age have little awareness of conscious focus when learning or performing a physical movement, as they are usually only focused on the result of what they are trying to do, in the case of golf, this is hitting the ball. There is a lot that the average golfer can learn from this! Many average golfers learn to try and use the swing technique that great players have written about over the years, and a lot of what can be found on instructional videos online or taught by swing coaches, is based on the techniques of these great players. What many people don’t take into consideration when trying to learn from the teachings of great players, like Hogan and Nicklaus, is that their swing technique developed over time as a result of specific tendencies with their ball striking and shot shape. For example, in his early career, Ben Hogan struggled with a strong hook as the main shot miss in his game. Many regard Hogan as the greatest ball striker of all time, but he developed his famous swing style and technique over the years as he worked hard to get the hook misses out of his game. Learn to understand you own technique and style Once you learn how to allow your mind and body perform your own natural swing, you will find it much easier to work on the specific techniques taught by great players or your coach, as you will have a greater connection to your subconscious and a feel for the swing and your body movements. The more you can allow your conscious mind to stay out of the way, and allow your subconscious to take control, the quicker you can improve and the more consistent you will play. This book covers my story, what I learnt in my journey to better golf, and the puts together in one place all the information to help you do the same and find your natural golf swing.
