Intermediate Golf Mobility and Power
A 25-minute golf-focused session to improve hip/torso mobility, stability, and rotational power.
Warm-Up: Mobility for Rotation
Loosen the spine and open hips/upper back to prepare for rotational work.
How to
A gentle spine mobility move that alternates rounding and arching your back on hands and knees.
- Start on hands and knees with wrists under shoulders and knees under hips.
- Inhale and drop your belly as you lift your chest and tailbone.

- Move slowly between both positions with your breath.
- Move one vertebra at a time.

- Rushing the rotation without control.
How to

- Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat, hip-width apart.
- Brace your core and press your arms lightly into the floor.

- Return to the start, then repeat on the other side.
- Keep alternating sides for each rep.
- Move slow and stay braced
- Keep your ribs down
- Letting your lower back arch

How to
An anti-rotation core hold that trains your abs and obliques to resist twisting.
- Stand sideways to an anchor with the handle at chest height.
- Hold it at your chest with both hands and step out to create tension.
- Brace your core and press your hands straight forward.
- Hold the position and breathe slowly without letting your torso turn.
- Bring your hands back to your chest with control.
- Keep your ribs down
- Stay tall and square

- Stand side-on to an anchored band and hold it with both hands.
- Brace your core and pull the band diagonally across your body.
- Rotate your torso and hips as your back foot pivots.

- Lower your hips with control.
- Finish your hold, then switch sides.
- Keep your hips stacked
- Press the floor away
- Letting your hips sag
- Rolling your chest toward the floor
Power and Cool-Down
Short power work followed by a brief downshift to finish feeling loose.
How to
A powerful rotational throw that trains your core, hips, and shoulders.
- Stand side-on to a sturdy wall, holding the ball at your outside hip.
- Load by rotating your chest and hips away from the wall.

- Rotate from your hips and upper back.
- Keep your core braced.
- Throwing with only your arms.
- Letting your knees cave as you rotate.
How to
A seated hip rotation drill that trains hip mobility and control as you switch side to side.

- Letting your back collapse as you rotate
Rotational Chain from Hips to Clubhead
The 90/90 Hip Switch and World's Greatest Stretch directly mobilize the hip capsule and thoracic spine — the two joints most responsible for swing arc and X-factor separation. Glute Bridge and Dead Bug then build the proximal stability that lets those mobile segments transfer force without energy leaking through your lumbar spine.
Why Amateurs Lose Power at Impact
Most handicap golfers stall rotation through the hitting zone because their anti-rotation strength can't match their mobility gains. The Pallof Press trains your obliques and deep core to resist lateral trunk shift, while the Band Wood Chop grooves the diagonal fascial line that mirrors your actual downswing pattern under load.
Sequencing Mobility Before Power Pays Off
This session follows a mobility-to-stability-to-power progression — unlocking range first, then owning it under tension, then expressing it explosively. The Medicine Ball Rotational Throw at the end is your neural anchor: perform each throw with maximal intent so your nervous system encodes the new movement range as a speed pattern, not just a stretch.
