Single Leg Balance
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:
Standing with your arms crossed, or at your side and feet together.
Movement:
Lift one leg up, to bring the knee above hip level while keeping a tall straight spine. Once you can hold this for 30 seconds, try closing the eye once you lift the leg.
Notes:
if this is too difficult, stand next to a stable structure, like a counter top, or doorway. Start by hanging one, and work to let go for a specific amount of time but have the stable structure available for safety.
