Too often swing patterns are related to body restrictions when the root cause lies elsewhere. Practitioners need to note the humanistic angle.
Like any discipline, without a greater appreciation of movement science it can be overplayed. Biomechanicsīiomechanics is an ever trendy field that offers huge potential in golf coaching through player education on correct anatomical funtion and the diagnoses of pertinent restrictions. This is where a skilled coach would intervene with well directed questions to peel back the layers and uncover HOW the movement has evolved. In my experience, the most influential 'constraints' in a golfer's movement come down to what they have learnt and believe about the swing.
GOLF SWING SLOW MOTION DRIVER
In this case the golfer is 'self organising' around the launch requirements (impact alignment) of hitting a driver with the required sweeping motion. This all interplays with the player's swing 'schema' learned habits, swing beliefs, intentions (Basically, what the player is trying to do with their swing right now but also through prior learning). The swing is a hugely complex arrangement of movement synergies built around well documented constraints such as the TASK, EQUIPMENT, PHYSICAL CAPABILITIES/RESTRICTIONS. Well done David Griffiths (swing model above). Hugely POWERFUL, yet GRACEFUL to the point of exhibiting fine CONTROL and massive SPEED. It's no wonder that the world of movement science is so heavily represented by research undertaken in golf.
