Research from Dr Kwon shows a strong relationship between peak torso rotation speed in the downswing and club head speed.
This is part swing mechanics and part physical capabilities.
This is a simple exercise that can be utilized at home or in the gym with minimal equipment to work on this ability.
It’s also a great warm up exercise.
I do prefer throwing and slamming medicine balls for working on this indoors, but I have grown to like this exercise.
The idea is simple – if you can improve the speed you can rotate your torso, you *might* be able to transfer more energy to the arms and club, resulting in increased speed.
At the very least, it feels like a good training exercise for swing sequencing and the high speed capabilities of the trunk muscles. I feel it a lot in my obliques!
