A better weight shift starts before you ever swing the club. In this video, I break down 3 physical things that can limit your ability to shift pressure into your lead side: 1. Balance 2. Hip mobility 3. Single-leg strength If you struggle with hanging back, losing power, or feeling like you can’t get onto your lead leg, this is a great place to start. The first test is simple: stand on one leg with a golf club for support. Then try it with your eyes closed. Then make it harder by adding a mental challenge, like counting backward by threes. Why? Because golf doesn’t happen in a quiet gym. You have to balance, rotate, shift, and make decisions all at the same time. From there, I show a 90/90 hip mobility drill to help you turn into your lead hip, plus a small lift-off variation to build more control and power. Then we finish with lunges and Bulgarian split squats to build the single-leg strength you need for a strong weight shift. Watch the video, then try the balance test today. Drop a comment with which one felt hardest: balance, hip mobility, or single-leg strength.

Had a pinched nerve and stenosis. I am 73. Need these hip mobility exercises to keep strain off the L4. L5.

Check out this video if you are struggling with improving your internal rotation, especially with your trail hip. It’s a huge issue that causes your lumbar spine to rotate. The lumbar spine HATES to rotate.

What up GPL! I plan to post a few more videos focused on power and mobility to get everyone going. My hope is to get a challenge going here in the next few weeks. I want something fun that promotes accountability. Maybe a leaderboard for workouts or a "who got the most distance" in 2 months challenge. Any thoughts or ideas from the group?

I'm going to start the "Wins" conversation with a testimonial an in-person client sent. Be sure to post any progress you have made here! "Early in December I started with Owen Campbell, a TPI certified professional. He developed a great program for me of strengthening and flexibility. He provided videos and was available when I had questions. And the results have been marvelous. With greater flexibility and strength I have increased my distances with all clubs. Also, now that I can make the moves that I had lost with age, I’m also hitting straighter shots. What a combination!" - Bill Daniels
