Discovering the elusive “athletic stance” isn’t about adhering to a prescribed pose. It’s a dialogue between body and movement. Grab your trusty PVC pipe and allow your body to be the teacher. Stand sideways, relax, and initiate slow, methodical turns. Feel the fatigue set in, observe how your body instinctively adjusts for efficiency. The gradual bending of your legs and the subtle forward lean reveal the ideal athletic stance for your swing. Don’t rush this process; let your body guide you to this optimal posture. Once you’ve found it, ingrain this sensation, embody it at address. The body, in its wisdom, has revealed the posture that harmonizes best with your swing. Embrace it. Should you ever lose your way, revisit this lesson, allowing the PVC pipe to be your guiding tool in rediscovering the dance of the athletic stance.
