The Role of the Glutes in the Golf Swing Most amateur golfers (and many teaching professionals) mistakenly think that power in the golf swing is mostly generated with the shoulders…
For maximum power creation in the golf swing, with minimal negative stress on the body, the ground must be the first link in the kinetic chain of energy transfer. Newton’s…
The adductor muscles of the hip are a group of muscles of the inner thigh. As the name suggests, the main function of the hip adductors is the adduction of…
The infraspinatus muscle is a thick, triangular muscle. As one of the four muscles of the rotator cuff, the main function of the infraspinatus is to externally rotate the arm…
In anatomy, internal rotation (also known as medial rotation) is rotation towards the centre of the body. External rotation (or lateral rotation) is rotation away from the centre of the…
Kinesiology, also known as human kinetics, is the scientific study of human movement, performance, and function. Kinesiology applies the sciences of biomechanics, anatomy, physiology, psychology, and neuroscience. It addresses physiological,…
