:no_entry_sign:Avoid completely restricting lateral motion in your swing, as it can hinder speed generation.
:arrow_down:Do not hold knee flex too much during the swing; allow your knees to change their bend for better hip movement.
:arrow_right_hook:Avoid over-rotating in the backswing, as it can negatively affect swing plane and timing.
How does lateral motion affect swing speed?
—Lateral motion in the hips allows for proper weight transfer, creating power and speed in the swing.
Why is it important to let your knees change their bend?
—Allowing your knees to change their bend helps create an optimal position for generating power from the lower body.
What happens when you over-rotate in the backswing?
—Over-rotation can lead to swing plane issues and timing problems, resulting in decreased speed and accuracy.
How can I improve my range of motion in the swing?
—Work on flexibility and mobility exercises, such as stretching and rotational drills, to increase your range of motion.
Can these mistakes cause injury?
—While these mistakes may not directly cause injury, they can put unnecessary strain on the body and increase the risk of long-term issues.
