We’ve already got this inbuilt ability to adapt our movement the pro the thing is with golf is it’s the mindset of often that restricts the application of the skill set so we’ve got to find out where your awareness is in how you swing obviously it’s different for you H you

Have plus three you’ve been playing a long time for you SAR as a beginner you’re starting out discovering myself and that is the thing it’s discovering swing yeah so the golf swing’s already there you’ve already got all the movements you need for a golf swing it’s drawing it out yeah

How does a golf swing emerge naturally instead of it being driven consciously deliberately and trying to think about how you move because that’s a very different way of moving High cognition High mental load it’s a stressful thing s a golf club doing that way for your body because your body’s not used to

Being told how to move you never question your movement apart from when you’re swing alal generally everything else you just play and do and just let your body move and you feel free and engage and it’s like in golf sometimes we disconnect CU we so become so internalized and we’re thinking how we

Move it becomes some kind of rigid protocol that we have to kind of adhere to and actually this thing has no rules intuition is knowledge and experience so you’ve got to be aware of how you’re practicing experientially to recognize what’s going on and to improve otherwise

You just go it’s Insanity doing the same thing all the time you just you’re going expecting a different result yeah you’re going you’re going to be in the same place you’re going to improve because this got the golf’s got so many different elements to it you’re going to

Improve in areas you probably don’t spend much time practicing your putting okay but your putting is probably might be all right you might think I’m all right putting yeah okay you don’t really practice it and we don’t know what disadvantages we’re creating for ourselves exactly in the swing once you

Know that just doing what we’re told once you know where you’re disadvantaging yourself where the interference is the blind spots in your movement Maps once you start to create Clarity on a censal level of where you are things start to change big time this is so strange I’m so excited for this

Cuz he says this to me all the time he says in the gym I do like a lot of calisthenics he says to me you’re so strong like pull-ups monkey bars on like leg press push like three times my body weight but I’ve got no he always says he

Goes I don’t know what’s like in squash as well he goes you can whip it with play lot of squash you can whip it but you just can’t do that in the golf zwing you’re so strong but your ball goes nowhere and it was just weird wasn’t it

We just didn’t understand what play squashes but then golf swing is I’m rigid yes maybe so the thing is right you said earlier the golf sport doesn’t transfer it absolutely does transfer oh does it 100% you’ve got a movement vocabulary very rich athletic movement vocabulary that just needs adaptive for

Golf it’s like you’ve got all the notes but they’re not quite in the right order well for me it’s not it’s like yeah so that then is the way that you’re applying yourself and the way you’re thinking about it absolutely because this is no different to any other sport

It’s not like something that eludes us it’s like there some mystical magical Dark Art that’s like really kind of you’ve got to be you I think Mar the surface area of the club face is a lot smaller to the surface area of the tennis racket and that’s why we can feel

It yeah I mean it’s it’s like it’s like snooker pull oh right yeah that’s hi guys due to the high demand on the golf trips we’ve got another trip planned for Gloria in Turkey in April it’s from the 21st to the 25th and we’ sold four places already so these trips are

Exclusively for a small group of six people so there’s only two places left if you’d like more details please contact fars at grf golra hub.com and he’ll be able to give you all the information you need and hopefully we see you there sorry we want all that skill that you’ve

Got through Sport and through movement in life flowing through into the GOL we’ got to let ourselves just adapt to this thing like it’s just a racket what we’ve got here we can see where the pressure is and then the overall pressure combined pressure the average is that

Spot there should that be much bigger well we we’ll we’ll find out so you’re going to you’re going to be able to make it bigger if you want you’re going to to make it smaller if you want you’re going to recognize if you need it bigger if you need it smaller of what

Benefit is it I can’t tell you anything I can’t tell you how to sway I can’t tell you what to think I can’t tell you what to feel all I can do is help facilitate that learning through an environment here where you you start to recognize what’s going on a bit and then

You can start to self organize then you’ll be telling me but then but in in another half hour or so you’ll be telling me what you need to do see the pressure is moving back okay it’s all good there see there’s a white line there between the feet yeah that’s going

To that’s going to show us the rotational Force okay looks like it’s moving into toes right it’s going the wrong way should be going into heel right really so sar’s sar’s probably thought at this moment in time here of doing this that at some point okay getting a club parallel to your to

Your line or keeping the club head outside the hands yeah and not doing this or something okay so what you’ve done is there you’ve thought about where the hand is and now suddenly the body just reacts to you moving your hand as opposed to you moving and the

Hand swinging I’ve gone so what you’ve done is this pressure is just reacting to you steering the go Club yeah makes sense it but that’s not that’s all done now through tensioning this is an active tensioning you’ve created to move the club as opposed to just swing it if I do

That the end of this is making a perfect circle pretty much and all I’m doing is this I’m not physically making the circle the circle is just the result of me creating this these forces this will start to change I guess I don’t know I’m just guessing as you speed up because

You played loads of sport your body knows how to move and use the ground right it already knows despite the interference you’re creating through trying to make a golf swing so the sportswoman Sara kicks in okay let’s see what happens as you get to the top it

Probably at some point there you go starts to go the other way shifted from toes to heel yeah so you don’t know this and it’s at the it’s started to become now more subconscious because you’re not aware of this it’s speeding up and your body is hardwired for efficiency it

Wants to use the ground despite all the interference you’ve created earlier on it starts to make up for it and starts to compensate and now you’re starting to load into the floor then you press your shifts really quick and you create some torque in the opposite direction so now you’re

Twisting you’re creating the forces to twist that’s all we do in the minute to don’t worry about this at the minute okay okay the problem we’ve got here is that Sara is it’s basically a a real mechanical disadvantage you’ve gone into firing mechanics okay your body is firing and you’re still

Loading so you’re loading into the floor and the body’s already used its mechanisms which it needs for this that they’ve already gone so the thing is now when you’re fully loaded at Peak vertical you’ve used up the mechanism and look how low you are you’re nearly delivering the club and you’ve not got

You’ve got no time basically you swing yeah so it’s all rushed I do feel like that I’ve got no time yeah we need to elevate your sense of loading and unloading okay and then we’re going to hit some shots your body again doesn’t recognize what you got to

Remember it only recognizes and remers feelings so you’ve got to stimulate it in a way that’s memorable engaging and appropriate for the speed you want to operate at the timing of it the change you need to fire and the joints you need to load so here that’s what you

Need yes so you’re not trying to go that way we’re twisting away and just twist your cor screwing into the ground yeah and then jump just jump up off your toes yeah and then that’s fantastic then try and just jump back onto here a little bit so you go like this so

There’s more weight on there that’s it that’s what you want you go this is phenomenal this is phenomenal for Drive the driver this is like gold dust more you can jump off in that way the more speed you get this way yes I mean that’s this is like this is phenomenal

Stuff just take your cloth Y and just have a swing there for me see how it feels good nice feels so different that’s brilliant let’s have a shot so you can start to use that at the beginning that Rhythm well done and Again well done fantastic all you’ve got to do now is let the club swing cuz you’ve been so used to holding on to it for dear life yeah yeah you can let this thing swing so keep your grip for me yeah we can let that club

Face and close okay and just react okay so you can let the club face go you don’t have to hold on try there let it go it wants to react cuz what is going to control that release yeah is your body you’re not going to be here doing

This cuz your body’s going to be moving it’s going to be happening later but you’ve got to let the you got to let the hinge go that’s it okay yeah that’s I don’t let go of the Hing you’ve got to let go of the hinge awesome well

Done beautiful strike it feel so good yeah the sound was good was it don’t control the direction just let it swing free to the finish that is fantastic strong feel good feels good look how strong that is yeah it’s moved all the way over to

Look how lagged it is look where you are you’re in front of the ball low points low as you’re loading into the floor you there you go and now you can push off you could do it for longer you could drop him for longer but now you’ve

Got to push push off look at the the release into the Finish look at that for a vertical for a graph and then a shift back notice you’ve not got as much of this going on in the back swing yeah true body wants to then shift early to the left

Side can drop a bit more than that yeah this is good oh no that’s all right don’t worry there the shame so the best thing to do instead of trying to work it out by thinking is just as we did with h play a few shots on the

Board that was nice that was nice that was beautiful lovely look at that that’s so powerful so strong and then you can spring look at the release look your hands are forward look at that Rel look at that impact yeah actually and then look now

You releas is later and you got a nice finish it’s balanced o o thanks marus so this is like the place to start where we leave off now is the place to start next time all right guys thank you so much marus you’re Legend apprciate cheers thank you
