Side Plank With Pull Row
Potentially the most important muscle group, the core is composed of all the muscle from hips to shoulders. It effects full body movements as well as maintaining posture throughout movements. The core effects the transfer of energy from the lower to upper body. A strong core improves all aspects of golf from maintaining posture to increasing club head speed as well as helps prevent injuries
Starting position:
Begin in a side plank position facing the pulley 90-degrees from the attachment point, with the pulley line up at elbow level, handle in top hand.
Movement:
Holding a side plank through the exercise, straight spine, glutes and core activated, retract the top arm shoulder blade, and pull the handle to the rib cage. Return to a straight arm position.
Notes: Posture and movement are more important the weight. Nothing should be moving other than the top arm
