The Physics and Biomechanics of Golf (hardback)

Description

Written for both players and coaches, this book provides a biomechanics analysis of modern golf theory, distills that analysis into ‘three fundamentals’, giving the reader means by which to analyse mechanics and appropriate the necessary adjustments required for maximal gains and efficiencies.

For coaches, becoming versed in Golf Science has become somewhat of a necessity, as the subject has become increasingly mainstream. However, caging this information in a useable way, making it accessible and understandable is a different matter entirely.

As players, understanding Golf Science and applying it to coaching instruction received, can often seem at odds! With this in mind, ‘The Physics and Biomechanics of Golf’ explores academic research. It explains these topics, encompassing also: muscle physiology, joint loading, dynamic sequencing, the workings and strictures of the central nervous system, etc. It seeks to unify this information into a ‘three fundamental framework’ accessible to all.⛳️

📖The first half of the book covers:

• CHAPTER 1: Forces and Fundamentals

• CHAPTER 2: Muscle Physiology

• CHAPTER 3: Physiology and Biomechanics

• CHAPTER 4: Proprioception in Biomechanics

• CHAPTER 5: The Physics of Golf

• CHAPTER 6: Wedge Theory

The accompanying product images show the contents pages for these chapters and their incumbent sections.

‘The Physics & Biomechanics of Golf’ was written to promote deeper understanding of golf’s scientific & technical foundations. It provides concepts, exercises & proprioceptive drills to complement instruction, as well as build complete understanding & maximise performance for players.
