TRX Bridge
The most dominant muscle group in the golf swing, the glutes, are the powerhouse of hip strength and rotational power. The glutes have several functions throughout the swing. Stability of the hips, limiting lateral movement maintaining posture through the swing, and creating both rotational, and vertical power through impact
Starting position:
TRX set to lower position (handles at knee caps), Lay flat on your back, Heels in the straps, handle under toes. Bring the knees bent to 90 degrees, stacked over hips. Toes pulled up.
Movement:
Pelvic tilt the low back flat to the ground. Tighten your glutes just prior to lifting your hips and back off the ground and drive your feet down in to the straps to lift your hips. Hold for 2-5 seconds and return to the starting position.
Notes: For an easier variation, either move yourself closer to TRX attachment, or, start and maintain straight legs through movement. All movement should come from the hips, not the low back. Bridging exercises can become harder with no arm support.
