Butterfly Bridges
All of us have imbalances that are created by replicating things over and over or simply by sitting or even inactivity. The human body will naturally compensate to what it does regularly but these compensations can later cause injuries and movement deficiencies in your body and swing mechanics. Corrective exercises are designed to keep your body aligned, balanced, and maintain good posture, to allow ideal efficient movements and injury free golf
Starting position:
Start on your back, knees bents, and dropped out to the side, so that the soles of your feet are against each other.
Movement:
Begin by bracing your abdominals, Pelvic tilt the low back flat to the ground (as best you can with knees out). Tighten your glutes just prior to lifting your hips and back off the ground, and drive through your heels to lift your hips.
Notes: only lift as high as the hips can lift without arching the low back more then the starting position, if this is too difficult, go to hip bridge, and piriformis stretch.
