AXIOM BootCamp 2, Chris Tyler, Nov 2021, Session 4

Session 4 of 4

---

Good afternoon, good morning, and good evening to some of you.

Welcome back.

Bootcamp session number four.

I'm excited to have you guys all back here joining me on this fine Saturday.

Hopefully everybody's had a wonderful week so far.

Hopefully everybody's having a great start to their weekend.

Today is going to be a jam-packed day.

We got a big day because this is the end, right?

This is where we put it all together.

And we start sending you out into the world like beautiful blossoming butterflies that are all going to be out there compressing the golf ball.

And I have seen some absolutely remarkable progress this week.

And I'm sure Craig will vouch for it as well.

We've seen some very good stuff from the lower body.

We've seen some great stuff from the release.

We've seen some people getting kind of frisky enough to try to put those two things together and really make some good looking golf swings.

We've seen people be disciplined.

We've seen people still working on getting the lower body stuff right.

Why?

because they want to get success.

And so I got to commend you guys because we've done this quite a few times in the past, right?

And so the questions that we've been answering, the reviews that we've been doing have all looked very good.

So welcome back.

Hopefully everybody's had a wonderful, wonderful start to their weekend.

And today, like I said, It's a jam-packed day and I'm going to try to get us through this.

So that you guys don't have to spend any more of your time on Saturday.

Before we got Thanksgiving coming up with me.

I want you guys to be able to get out there and work on things and get things rocking and rolling.

So I did see a question about getting the hips to fire first to help move the hands and arms down into the hitting area.

That's exactly what we want.

The hips and the golf swing are going to help add speed to what the hands and arms are going to be doing from one side of the body to the other.

So if you think about it, if I'm not going to move my body at all, and I'm just going to have my arms swinging back and forth from one side to the other, without me getting tense and without me.

trying to actively speed my arm up.

How would I speed my arm up?

Well, I would take that same movement and now I would start adding some hip work to it, right?

Now, if you look, I'm not trying to get more tense through my hand and my arm.

It's just actively speeding up for us.

So can everybody hear me all right?

I did see somebody that just say muted.

Everybody hear me all right?

Okay, sounds good.

Awesome, awesome.

Welcome, welcome, welcome.

We have a jam-packed day.

So for those people that are getting settled into the room now, we'll just give you a couple minutes.

I know some of you will be in a little bit of a hurry today to try to get me into the nuts and bolts of it, but we got a lot of stuff to cover up front.

So basically the format today is going to be, we're going to take Q&A, we're going to talk about some of the faults, and then we are going to get into a warmup, right?

I'm going to start walking you through a good warmup to get your lower body working.

We're going to tie the release back into it.

And then we're going to finish this golf swing off.

And you're going to still hear me lead towards the lead side dominant release.

And I think most of you have really gone down that pathway.

I saw a couple of people working on the trail side stuff.

Totally fine.

Remember, we're not objectionable to that.

That's why we've introduced it.

But you're going to see a bulk of the presentation today really centered around the lead side stuff that you've always heard from us.

Um, I will show you at the end a good way to be able to get the trail side working for you.

If you're one of those habitual offenders where you've swung the club over the top and you've created a big old slice, I get it.

We're going to give you some of that stuff to be able to help you work you through that.

So letting everybody get settled.

On the nine to three, where should the pressure be in my foot?

be at at the three or the six?

So on the nine to three, where should the pressure be in my foot?

So when you're moving, your pressure should be.

If you're working to get shifted back over to your lead side, it's going to start into the six o'clock region and then it's going to move up through seven, eight, nine.

And that in turn, if you couple that with that special sauce sort of movement that you've heard me talking about for the first few sessions, that's a good way to get your hips to be able to work dynamically.

So when you start moving from one side of the body to the other, you want to get back into six o'clock and then you want to aggressively move through seven, eight, nine.

You want to think about.

that 7, 8, And 9 right?

So that's where you want to really try to fire and try to get the hips moving in that direction.

So definitely don't want you to get lost in thinking about what position you have to be in in the clock.

That can kind of take away from the whole purpose of Axiom.

Axiom is just, again, that's that vortex generator that helps us create that big movement, right?

So, getting your weight to move around that foot and then understanding that six So please repeat the special sauce, Dennis.

No problem, sir.

That's coming right out of the gate.

No problem.

So, all right.

Another question coming in.

I'm in the backswing.

In the backswing of a five to 10-yard chip, the weight doesn't quite move all the way to the back, to the trail heel.

How does Axiom apply to those?

So you're going to think about with smaller shots, and this is going to be true to when you get really, really proficient with the movements, is thinking about that circle becoming smaller and smaller and smaller.

When you first start out, we want you moving around the whole perimeter of the foot, right?

And the same thing when we start introducing that arm movement, you're going to see a very overcooked movement that eventually is going to be tightened down.

You just want to think about that circle becoming smaller and smaller and smaller, okay?

So Andrew says, Chris, at post-up, the left hip goes back up and away, as you said in the first session, or down and back, as you said recently.

They feel different to me.

Okay, so I like to use a combination of both of those, but to be honest with you, there's not a lot of time to be able to make that stuff happen because we know that you guys have your speed demons, you know, attached to your shoulders that want to get active.

So the way that I've been describing it to people is when you start moving from your right side to your left, if you think about the left butt going down and back initially, that first initial movement while you're driving from that trail foot is what helps maintain that deeper sort of tush line.

And if you think about the butt moving back simultaneously, with that push movement that you're getting from the trail side, you are getting the hips fully cleared out and you are getting that lead leg to a passively straight position.

Now, we understand that in the world of post-up, right, that we should be moving this left hip up and away.

So I'm using kind of a combination of both of those at some points, just because some people are going to resonate with one side, some people are going to resonate with the other.

But to be honest with you, what I really like is when you start moving from six up through seven, eight, nine, and you start really pushing, okay, thinking about that entire body being moved in the direction of the target.

If you counterbalance that movement with the butt moving down and back, okay, then you're going to end up into that post-up position because this movement from the trail side is helping clear the hips out.

Okay, so great question there.

So I see, Craig, can I still have next swing reviews?

Okay, Luke's asking a specific question.

Okay, so it looks like the questions are coming to a halt here.

So I've been to a part of swing reviews.

Okay, Mark Lester, on the release at the top of the swing, pros finish with a club parallel to the ground.

Is that important or can I finish straight up?

So on the release at the top of the swing, pros finish with a club parallel to the ground.

Is it important or can I finish straight up?

I'm not sure I understand the question, Mark.

Sorry.

So at the top of the swing, pros finish with a club parallel to the ground.

So that's a big misunderstanding in the world of golf instruction.

that we have to get the club to parallel, okay?

You don't have to get the club to parallel at the top of the swing in order to be able to produce speed, right?

Look at Jason Day.

Jason Day was notorious for having a very short backswing, right?

And that guy produced tons and tons of speed.

All that added movement, I should say, is just added movement that can create timing in the golf swing, right?

That's just your wrist getting fully set at the top of the swing.

And that in turn generally starts sending people down this pathway where you start stretching out the muscles in your wrists and your forearms.

That's the stretch shortening cycle going to work.

And it's going to start forcing the club to work back in the other direction.

I personally, as a kid, when I grew up, I tried to get the club to parallel or pass parallel.

Why?

Well, because I saw John Daly.

I saw all these long drive guys, you know, getting the club wrapped around their neck.

Is it needed to be able to produce efficiency in the swing?

Absolutely not.

So the question is about the finish.

So when the hands and arms are extended out in front of the body, the club parallel to the ground, you're talking about should the club be straight up then?

Is that what the question is?

I'm sorry, I'm just not following the question.

Okay, so if you see, in your nine to three format, and you see us in this position, but you're like this, okay, again, things are happening pretty quickly.

So if momentum and inertia pulls your wrist into that position, We don't really care.

The thing that you want to make sure that you understand is that you need to have the lead wrist flat.

And it needs to rotate and point behind you just to this frame right here.

Everything that happens above this is the golf ball is already long gone.

What it is though, is a way for us to be able to kind of reverse diagnose where you're moving from, right?

If we see you've turned your body a lot more and your shoulders have turned flat, then we know that you actively turned through the hitting area.

So hopefully that answers Michael.

Absolutely fantastic question.

Should I be hitting a ball for the swing review or not?

Some of you can be hitting balls.

Some of you should not be hitting balls.

If you're working on refining movements and you want us to check to make sure that those are correct.

Before you start going into kamikaze mode and start hitting all these balls, then that's fine.

For those of you that are going to send in reviews with you hitting balls, I would recommend that be the first review, but then every review moving forward until we get it to the way that we want it.

we're probably going to tell you to lose the ball out of there until we get you into good, good spots.

Now, I also get a good mix of people that send in reviews where we allow you 30 seconds of video footage.

So you can make a practice swing first, okay, doing whatever you're working on so we can see if those movements are done correctly.

And then you can move the ball into frame and then try to hit it.

So we'll leave that up to you.

But I will say that, you know, the reviews that are going to be most productive, if you're starting out with us, we want to see what you're doing at first when the ball is present so we can see.

where your natural movement patterns lie.

But after that, we'll probably put you in timeout just depending on how bad things are or how good things are.

Who knows?

Okay.

So good question.

All right.

So I have a tendency to hit the ball off the toe long distance.

Any suggestions?

So there's a lot of factors that lead to toe strikes.

Okay.

So believe it or not, it could be the shoulders turning open too quickly and then you rotating the face too fast.

If that's the case, then you do expose the toe of the club to the golf ball.

And vice versa, when we see people hit the heel of the club, we tend to see them create a little bit too much secondary axis tilt, which generally leads the club coming more from the inside, which exposes the hosel of the club to the ball and forces them to try to flip it over.

So I think more times than none, it's the upper body wanting to turn open a little bit more, and you're trying to slam the face shut with the right hand, which with the rate of rotation of the club face is going to expose the toe.

But in order for us to be able to give you a 100% accurate answer, we would have to look at your golf swing specifically.

Because same thing with like a fat shot or a thin shot.

There's lots of different variables in the swing that can affect that, right?

We're going to check angle of attack.

We're going to check, you know, the direction the club is being delivered into the hitting area.

We're going to check rates of rotation in the face.

So, yep.

So if you've never done a swing review then and you want us to identify what your toe strike is, a good, good solution for you is if you get lucky enough or unlucky enough, I should say, to capture one on video.

where you get one off the toe specifically, send it in.

I deal with reviews like that on a day-to-day basis.

When I get students to the point where I'm having them hit a lot of balls, right?

And I'll give you this example of this guy, Andrew, that I worked with, worked with for a couple of years now.

He hits 50 balls a day.

He does a one-to-one ratio.

And he tells me exactly how many balls he hit on the center of the face and how many balls he hit fat, thin, towards the toe, towards the heel.

And he will send one in that says, okay, this is one of the fat shots.

Can you help me identify what it is?

a very big part of the learning process is not just understanding the movements that we want you to do, but understand where your mishits come from so that you can work yourself away from that.

That's a huge part of this process, right?

Because again, there's lots of different variables to be able to, you know, that can affect what's going on down in the hitting area.

Tons of them, right?

Tons of them.

All right.

So could that be early extension?

I have early extension.

I hit off the toe often.

So Early extension can lead to it again, but it's very dependent on where your hands and your arms are in space, right?

So if I come down and my hands and arms work out away from me, and then I start standing up out of posture, right?

Then you can see that there's a lot of plane shift and a lot of rerouting.

So people think about the golf swing is, you know, this sort of arc, right?

And I agree with that.

There's a big arc to the swing.

And you think about, you know, a two -plane golf swing versus a one-plane golf swing.

What you want to remember is that there's.

Every single little body movement that you make in the swing can ultimately affect the plane that the club is being delivered on.

And you've heard us talk in the past about swing plane being completely consequential to body movements, which it is.

But as instructors, what we're looking for, we're looking to do is help you balance the swing plane so it doesn't have all these peaks and valleys to it.

You want it to be very, very under control so that your delivery through the hitting area is much easier for us to be able to manage.

So hopefully that makes sense.

I think we're ready to get underway now.

We're about 15 minutes in with questions.

Please remember at the conclusion of today, when I'm done wrapping things up so that I can get you guys to do things with your families or if you guys want to go work on things, that for those of you that want to stick around and ask questions, by all means, stick around with us.

All right.

Craig is answering questions diligently in the chat right now.

I'm also going to stick around as long as we need to because today is graduation day, right?

We want to make sure that when we get done today, that you know exactly what you're doing, why you're doing it, and how you're going to get it done.

If you don't have those three things answered in your brain, then stick around because it's super important to me.

And this has been, obviously, some of you probably have noticed this.

It's been a pretty nerve-wracking experience for me because we changed the program dramatically from the first.

Axiom Bootcamp to where we are now.

And the reason for that is, is because we know that this process is going to work.

And the proof has been in the pudding.

I've seen a lot of great success, which I'm excited to be able to report back to Chuck and be able to continue on the forward path with the students.

So it's been a very kind of, it feels like it's been a little bit all over the map at times with me, because again, it's just a different delivery.

But I'm very confident that if you follow the procedures that we're going to outline for you, and you go back through it, and you just kind of work through Um, even when I do the warmup today, if you do this every single time that you get ready to start practicing, then you're practicing with a purpose and you'll get to the end result and you'll make sure that your lower body works good.

You'll make sure that you've got control of the hitting area and then you can build upon it.

And that's the fun part is that it allows you to stay moving.

It allows you to hit golf balls and it allows you to build this into a full swing.

So that you go out there and play some good golf.

Because, quite honestly, I don't want you guys to suck at this game.

Okay.

So now that we're getting ready to get underway, if you guys could do me a big favor, because The chat can get a little distracting and I want to make sure that we don't have everybody getting lost in what's going on in the chat.

Try to keep that quiet unless there's something extremely pressing.

We do have an absolute crappy day going on here in Florida where you get a lot of rain, a lot of wind, which you guys know how that works in the world of internet.

So if something pops up where you guys can't hear or see me, then obviously let me know.

So with that said, so let's talk about some of the faults that I saw this week.

One of the biggest faults that I saw, and this is again, My fault for not pressing you on this hard enough is that for those of you that were doing a lot of body drills specifically, so when you were working on getting your hips cleared out, I saw a lot of people turning their chest to finish.

Now, obviously in a perfect world, this is where we're going to finish our golf swing.

We're going to be up onto our right toe.

Okay.

We're going to be in a position where we don't have any creasing in our toe box.

This is the finish of the golf swing.

We're not teaching you to get to that finished position.

We're teaching you to get to the most important part, and that's impact.

Everything that happens after impact should be the club pulling you into that position.

Now, again, as I said to you guys in session three, I don't live under a rock, okay?

Some of you aren't going to produce enough speed, enough to pull you into a finished position.

And the last thing I want you guys to do is start trying to make all this speed down here, and you kind of deadlock your right foot on the ground, and then you start compressing your lower vertebrae.

That's going to hurt you.

So for some of you, if you can get your chest to stall enough to where you can get your hands and arms to extend out in front of your body, just like I have, this is perfectly fine.

And then from here, you can move up into a finish.

So I did see a lot of people actively turning their chest.

So when we go through our warmup out of the starting point, when we get to our finish position, I want you guys to make sure that your shoulder line is square when your hips are open 45 degrees.

Don't allow your chest to turn open because that is going to make the club very late to release.

Now, for those of you that are going to be a push releaser and that are going to stay on the trail side, the most I want to see your shoulders open is going to be somewhere in the ballpark of like 15 to 20 degrees.

And so what that looks like from an up the line standpoint is my chest is going to be pointed just out in front of me, not nearly as open as my hips.

Okay.

So that was the first fault.

Second fault, stopping the arms.

Super common.

Right?

Because all of you guys want to do a lot with your hands.

I get it.

It feels coordinated.

It feels fast.

I can't press this into your brain enough that you don't have to do this work.

Okay?

You don't have to.

If you try to do that, then you're going to make the club face insanely unstable.

Okay?

You can hit good shots like that, but you're just more reliant on timing.

And timing is something we're trying to extract from your golf swing.

So it does the same thing every single day.

Okay, just bottom line.

So if you noticed on camera that when you were doing some sort of release drill, okay.

That your hands weren't over towards the middle of your thigh or towards the end of your thigh.

At impact, okay, there's a pretty good chance that you didn't have enough angle going back, so I saw a lot of people coming down with angle like this.

So you can feel like you get a little bit more set.

Or you stopped your arms to make time for the club to flip over.

Okay, think about that Now, in order for me to keep my hands in front of the golf club, I need to keep my arms moving, okay?

So you want to feel like your arms are moving.

Now, it's going to feel maybe a little less fast to some of you at home because I can sit here all day long and do this and feel the club really fast.

I can feel that whip-like sensation.

But step back for a second.

Remember, things are going to be happening really fast in the golf swing, really fast, okay?

Milliseconds.

So if you're trying to make that movement happen and you're stopping the arms, then the golf ball is going to go all over the place.

So this is a fault fix for you is think about both arms continuing to move past your body.

You're going to try your best for those lead side dominant people to keep your head and your chest back behind the golf ball as long as you can.

And what it's going to look like is your hands and arms are extending out in front.

You're going to create this side bend.

So don't be afraid to get the arms to move as one unit over to the other side.

If you stop and do this, and then the club pulls you out away, it's the death move in the swing.

Remember, I said that to you guys when we started taking on the release drills.

Is that the only thing that really matters is your face angle down here at impact, okay?

20% of it is the path, 80% is face angle, okay?

So the other fault that I saw, and this kind of sets off that negative chain reaction of events that I talked about, is in transition, you started moving your hips left and your upper body hung back.

Now, what's the problem with this?

This thing right here, your lead shoulder, is your determining factor where the club is going to bottom out.

And I assume that you guys are setting up in a way where you want the ball, or I'm sorry, the club to bottom out in front of the ball, right?

We always heard that expression, you take a divot in front of the ball.

If your bottom out point is moving back because your shoulder is moving back, then that's going to force your hands, again, to become a little bit more active.

So a good way to overcome that, again, I'm giving you some fault fixes today, is to actually think about your lead shoulder.

staying down, but think about keeping it down past impact.

Now it's not going to stay lower than your right.

It's always going to, your right shoulder is always going to be lower than your, than your, your lead shoulder, but you want to feel like it stays down until your hands get just outside your lead thigh.

Okay.

Again, a lot of times people try to create that secondary axis tilt too quickly.

And that just looks like this.

Okay.

So you can see how I lean back and the club flips, right?

That's no bueno.

I'm bilingual, huh?

How about that?

I'm not really.

So the other final fault that I saw is that when some of you tried to blend this together, you started being less aggressive with your hips.

I saw some people that were at the start of the week before they started adding their hands and arms to it, they were being really aggressive with hips, okay?

But when you start getting the arms to move, you just kind of started fluffing around a little bit.

Get your legs and your hips to be the primary focus.

This hand and arm function, that you're doing from one side of the body to the other, yes, it's extremely important.

It's the face angle stuff.

But when you're trying to get this dynamic and you're trying to make the swing longer, use your legs and your hips properly.

Do not start thinking so much about this.

If you want to think primarily about the release and you're uncertain if you're doing the lower body stuff, then preset yourself at impact and just work on the release drills.

Don't have movement there yet.

You can work on this as two separate components.

And I actually gave a golf lesson yesterday to a person.

where I did that exact same thing, is I had him work on two separate components of his swing to ultimately blend it together at the end of the session, right?

Think about that.

Think about how much more productive we were in that two -hour time frame when we were together.

Worked on the first fault, worked on the second fault, and then blended them together.

And then I told him, I was like, you have the ability now to be able to go back and forth between the faults and try your best to be able to get the best success with the movements, back check them on camera.

So that's it for false.

Okay.

So as I said, you guys at the start, I have to, if I, I'm going to clap for you guys because, and I'm not trying to sound corny or cheesy, right?

Just work with me for a minute.

The questions that were asked, the movements that we've, we've seen and the people that have a desire to really get this stuff.

Great.

I, I, it's just, it's blown me away.

Okay.

It really has.

So I thank you guys because it's helped make this process a little bit easier for me to be able to deliver it to you today.

Because if I walked in here on this final session and I just saw mass chaos, I would be like, man, what did I do to this program, right?

But I saw exactly what I was hoping would happen.

And I think Craig did too, because Craig and I speak on a day-to-day basis and we get to kind of talk back and forth about the stuff that we've seen.

Even the questions in the community forum are all great.

You can really, really get a lot of success with this if you use all the resources on the website.

The community is a great place for you to be able to ask questions, right?

And I'll give you those options when we get done camp because we don't want you just to think that, all right, I've done four sessions.

Let me go back and watch all these replays and that you're going to be, you know, left on your own.

You have support.

We're going to help you.

Okay.

So the format today, what we're going to do is we're going to warm up first.

Okay.

We're going to get really focused on how to get this lower body stuff, a hundred percent perfect.

And I'm going to give you a different way to practice it.

Those of you that liked what we did in the first two sessions, you can stay with that.

We're going to be doing the same thing.

I'm just.

restructuring it a little bit.

And then after we do that, we are going to finish the backswing.

Now the backswing position, when I have you go through this with me, and I'm in fact, if you guys are following along with the PDF, then skip ahead, go to page 19.

This is where we're going to start and we're going to work backwards.

And the reason for that is, is because we don't care if you're going to be lead side or trail side dominant, either way, you're going to get to the same position at the top of the backswing.

but vastly, and I mean vastly different ways, okay?

And so this is where you're gonna have to make sure that you get to that spot.

Because what we saw in the first Axiom Bootcamp is we saw when we gave that free range of movement.

That a lot of people started creating faults in the backswing that can lead to absolute catastrophic faults on the downward half, all right?

So that's why I'm gonna have you guys skip ahead and use slide 19.

So for those of you that wanna be interactive and start warming up with me, we're actually gonna start today with feeling the axiom movement through our right foot.

Those of you that are left-handed, you can do it through your trail foot.

But we're gonna do this not in golf posture.

We're gonna do this.

You can put your hands in your pocket, okay?

Oh, Troy, thanks very much for joining us.

You can do this with your hands in your pockets.

You can do this with your arms across your shoulders.

I'm gonna do it with my hands in my pockets.

And I just want you to just feel this just for a minute, okay?

I want you to feel the weight move around the perimeter of your foot.

Allow your lower half to move a little bit here.

Now, what I want you to do is visualize, okay, visualize this with me for a moment.

When you start moving around to six o'clock, right, which should be back towards your trail heel, okay, when you start going up through seven, eight, nine, I want you to think about your entire body being pushed in the direction of the target, okay?

Even if you go too far, right?

We're not doing a violent movement here where you're gonna put stress on your hips, okay?

What I want you to do is just start waking your legs up.

But I also want you to visualize that that movement from six, seven, eight, and nine is aggressively helping you push your body in the direction of the target.

This is how I want you to warm up, okay?

Now, the reason why I want you to start warming up this way is because feeling movement is exactly what we want you to do within the axiom.

We don't want you to get locked up, okay?

If you start getting locked up, then you're going to start using your arms and your shoulders.

You gotta get this stuff moving, okay?

So Alan, that is definitely a big issue when your PDF is only 16 pages and I just asked you to go to page 19.

So maybe I have a mistake on my end.

We'll address that, but I'll show you the slide that we're gonna work off of, okay?

So now, once you've warmed up, I just gave you the movement of loading and then weight transfer.

Now, how do you think I want you to finish it off?

Well, here comes the secret sauce that you heard us talk about.

Right, this is the move that has really helped blend all of this stuff together.

So you don't have to think about your hips and your backswing.

You don't have to think about squat to square, and you don't have to think about post-up.

You're moving through those positions, right?

We're like, we don't have to think about squat to square, we don't have to think about post-up.

No, you don't have to.

That's why, if you think about this, it's two separate pieces and then putting them together, we're cooking with some major hot sauce here now.

The Secret sauce, I'm going to turn up the line for you, is I want you to imagine that you have a chair sitting back behind your left butt, right?

And all you're trying to do is you're going to take your left butt and sit back in the chair, okay?

Just like that.

Left butt sitting back in the chair.

That's it.

So if you think about your left butt sitting down and back on that chair, not going all the way back to where your heel is coming up off the ground, sit down and back.

That's all I want you to do.

within the confines of that big axiom movement that we just worked on.

So when we start going into this, you're gonna focus on that weight moving around the perimeter of your foot, and you're gonna make sure that you feel your whole body aggressively moving when you get to seven, eight, nine, but you're gonna counterbalance it with the left butt going down and back.

That's it, and you're gonna end up in the spot, okay?

So now what I want you to do is I want you to go ahead and get into your golf posture.

Okay.

And I want you to get your arms across your shoulders.

And we're going to start moving around the merry-go-round, and we're going to start going to six eight, nine.

And you're going to think about that left butt going down and back.

Okay.

Looks like a little small movement, right?

Okay.

Now what you can see here is that this is all lower body driven.

I'm not doing anything with my upper half.

Okay.

We're going to add that in just a moment.

Okay.

Let me turn up the line.

Okay.

Round the clock, six, seven, eight, nine.

So for those of you at home that are watching that demonstration, it doesn't look like this, right?

They don't see a lot of excess movement.

Why?

Well, because it's a blend, right?

When this is all said and done, when you get really, really proficient with it, it's going to look like that.

Okay.

It's not a big movement.

Now let's talk about that.

It's a big movement at first, but we consolidate it down.

We were founded on the idea that we are going to protect and preserve your body.

Having all of these added moving parts is going to put stress on the critical joints if you don't do it accurately.

So you have to have a good blend of the hip shifting and rotating.

But also, if you think about the left butt going down, that adds that component in where now you've maintained tush line.

And how many of you at home, how many of you at home battle with this?

Okay, how many?

A lot of you, right?

Everybody wants to bring their hips forward.

So left hip down.

So left butt, left hip, right?

I want you to think about your left hip going down and back, right?

Left butt, down and back, same thing, okay?

I want you to think about it going down and back.

That coupled with you moving aggressively from your right side to your left is going to get you into the same position, right?

So my left butt, my left hip, everything's going down and back as I'm moving hard from six, seven, eight, nine.

It's going to give you the same results.

I encourage you to get up out of your chairs and try it out if you haven't, right?

And we're four sessions in.

Hopefully, you guys have tried this out.

And some of the guys that I've worked with that have sent me some really nice notes over the last few days, it's been pretty awesome to see.

I know there's a guy in the chat, Charles, who's made some absolutely insanely good progress.

And he's been a person that's always said, how am I going to get my hips more open?

Well, We got to get you working, right?

We got to get you using your legs and your hips the proper way.

We got to prioritize where that movement comes from.

So if you think about it as kind of two separate pieces, right?

You have the axiom movement and then where you're going to be moving and pressure shifting through seven, eight, nine to help get your body moving this way.

And you counterbalance that with what your left butt or your left hip are doing in transition.

Think about it from your left butt.

Sorry that I said left hip, but work with me.

Think about that left butt moving down and back as you're driving hard from that right side, and you're going to end up where?

Well, you're going to end up in that post -up position that you hear us talk about.

Now, what's a post-up position?

Post-up position is just the left leg moving to a passively straight position.

What does passively straight mean, Chris?

Well, you're sitting there having a conversation with me.

We're just sitting here talking.

I don't lock my legs out straight, right?

It's just a passively straight position.

If you try to snap it into this ramrod straight position, you're going to blow your knee out like Tiger did.

right?

That's not good for your body.

There's a lot of rotational force that's going to be taking place.

Okay.

So that's the secret sauce movement that you've heard us talk about since session one.

Okay.

It's using the axiom, thinking about when you start moving through seven, eight, nine, that you're using that to aggressively move your entire body, not just your hips, your entire body, but you're counterbalancing that with your left butt moving down and back.

And you're going to end up in the spot that you need to be.

Okay.

So first down and back or at the same time?

Down and back, man, all same time.

So down and back towards the chair, okay?

Down and back there, okay?

That coupled with the drive off the right side and you are in the spot.

Now, after you get that warmed up, what do you think I want you to do?

I want you to start adding the shoulders, right?

I want you to start getting the shoulders to turn so you can start doing this, right?

Now, I know that every one of my reps, If you look at me, my chest looks like it's turned open.

If you look at it from a down-the-line perspective, my shoulders are going to give you the appearance that they're trying to open up a little bit.

I am very, very tight and restricted in my hips.

I just am.

In order for me to get to that full post -up position, it tries to pull my shoulders around.

When I have a golf club in my hands, I restrict that as much as possible, and I try to stay closed.

For a lot of you at home when you're doing these drills, I want you to use.

the golf ball as your point of not trying to let your shoulders turn past.

Okay.

Use that as a focus point.

Now, after you've done the axiom movement, you've coupled it with your special sauce.

You've now added the body turn.

Now, what do we add to the mix?

Well, we add the lead arm, right?

We add the lead arm or the trail side.

When we get the lead arm in the mix, I want you to remember when you start moving, okay, and you start turning your body, I want your arm to come back to nine o'clock.

No further back than nine o'clock, okay?

Now, as we get to this position, okay, we're going to make sure that we work from six up through seven, eight, nine.

We're going down with our left butt, down and back, and then we're letting our arms swing through.

So you can see that it's done really, really slow and chunky, just trying to focus on getting the mechanics put together.

Okay, same thing.

Okay, now you want to feel like your hip.

and your left leg are getting to that post-up position as your lead arm is passing in front.

Okay?

Now, remember, after you've decided that you're going to be lead side and you've gone through that process, and I'm not going to give you a specific number of reps that I want you to do.

And for those of you that have listened in on some of the Q&A, I want you to be able to play around with the numbers of reps that you're doing on each one of these phases, right?

If you need 30 or 40 reps with just doing this, That's totally fine.

What are you trying to do in your practice session?

I want you to ask yourself that question.

Well, I hope that you guys are all trying to get your body to move a different way, but you also want to be focused, right?

You want to be focused and you want to start creating awareness.

Now, I understand that there are going to be some people that aren't kinesthetically aware of their body.

I'm one of those people.

So you have to start real slow.

You have to use a mirror.

You have to use a camera, okay?

Otherwise, you don't know what you're doing, right?

work at the pace that you feel comfortable with, but you wanna challenge yourself, right?

So today I'm gonna be working on getting my nine to three swing with some really good axiom movement through my foot.

I'm gonna try to get to that good solid position that Chris was talking about.

I'm gonna make sure that I get that stuff right without the golf club, okay?

Then what I'm gonna do is if I get really good results on camera, I want you to put the club back in your hands.

When the club comes back in your hands, I want you to have your troublemaker back on the club.

Okay.

I know that you guys, some of you caught the terrible thing that I called it last session, but it is what it is.

Okay.

So I want this back on the club.

Why?

Well, because it needs to feel like a golf swing.

I know that every single one of you can go out there and make this really nice looking left arm only swing.

And you can have lots of lag and lots of release.

That's awesome.

Right.

But how many of you are going to go out there and commit to hitting golf balls like that?

Not many.

And so this is one of the things that, you know, we've, we've been discussing on the backend is that we need to get.

The the both hands and arms on the golf club, because it has to feel like a golf swing for it to be able to translate.

That's the whole big picture, right?

So you're working to get this, this whole movement into a golf swing format.

And so then you start getting the club back in there, you start moving through the position.

So I'm not going to go and do a whole bunch of reps right now.

But again, what you're going to do is start moving around the perimeter of your foot.

You're turning into the nine to start getting the ball back in the mix.

Once you start getting the ball back in the mix, start hitting some shots, pay attention to how you're hitting the golf ball.

If you want to start real small and build your way up, that's the beauty of this is that we're not giving you this really, really iron clad sort of way that you have to practice.

We want you to be able to use the information that I gave you and be able to control your own practice sessions.

You have to go out there with a plan.

You have to try to create awareness.

And you have to go through the movements just like you would if you were learning anything else in this world.

For those of you that have ever learned how to do, think about a manual transmission.

I've used this example before in this camp.

But you don't go out there and start heel-toe shifting and rev matching.

And then all of a sudden, you're ripping through gears when you first start learning out the processes of a manual transmission.

What do you do?

Well, you learn the whole mechanical movement of it.

It's slow, chunky format.

And then you practice it.

It's the same thing here.

Okay.

If I had some sort of magical pill to give you guys to get this stuff done, then I would give it to you because it would make my life a whole lot easier and your lives a whole lot less frustrating.

Right.

But that's just not the way it works.

Let's, let's, let's be, let's live in a world of reality.

You have to take time.

And plus what you have to understand too, is that you guys are wired with so much bad stuff in there sometimes that you have to just take the time and go through the unsexy part of this.

Right.

I know, I know it sucks to hear that.

Right, so, like, the guy that came in yesterday, okay, came in from um, Boca Baton.

And he says, Okay.

I'm going to be back in like three or four weeks to have this done.

I was like, I'm going to be honest with you, I don't want to see you because in three or four weeks time you're not going to have this done.

But if you want me to sit out here for two hours in two straight days each session, and you want me to watch your movements, then I'll gladly do that right.

I will gladly do that where I'll sit there, but I don't like wasting people's time or money.

And I'm sure Craig and I'm sure Chuck are the same way.

So I know that business model sucks because I'm sure most of you in this room have been sold a series of lessons before, right?

How many of you walked into a pro shop and they're like, five golf lessons for whatever the price is.

You're like, yeah, that's it.

I'm going to have like five weeks.

I'm going to be a golf superstar.

Okay.

If that instructor knows what they're doing and they teach you how to train your body.

and they get you a solid plan that's going to allow you to make all these changes in that short period of time, fine, great.

They've solved world peace when it comes to golf.

This stuff takes time, But that's the good thing about Axiom is that being able to start moving into and through positions and doing it the correct way.

Without having to do a lot of this mechanical thinking about where you're trying to move to in space, it's going to change the golfing world.

I'm going to tell you right now, and we've seen it.

I've seen a lot of people that just, quite honestly, sucked with lower body movements and had early extension their entire life, now are starting to make golf swings, staying in posture.

Think about that.

Right?

Pretty crazy.

So here we are at graduation day.

I just walked you through a step-by-step process on how to get yourself warmed up.

Now what we've got to do is we've got to finish this puppy off.

And a lot of you are going to try to do this too early.

A lot of you will.

I've seen some of you guys at home trying to hit golf balls too soon.

Take your time.

Don't try to have the golf ball in the mix.

So as I said to you just a moment ago, if you find this slide, I think it's slide 19.

If this is off on your PDF, I apologize, but it's just going to be Chuck in a completed back swing position.

And the reason why I want to start here is because the back swing position that we're going to be working towards, whether it's trail side or lead side dominant, is going to go to the exact same spot.

Okay, if you look at my right elbow, it's in line with my torso.

It's not back here.

If you look at my right elbow, it's more or less at the base of my chest.

If you look at my left wrist, my left wrist is anatomically flat.

Okay, so both movements are going to get you to that same spot.

If you found that you have a right elbow that flies away from you, if you find that your hands and your arms are deep, If you find that your hands and arms are too far in front of you, then you need to be able to kind of play around with which side dominant you want to be in.

Because the right side dominant stuff or the trail side dominant stuff, what we've noticed is when you start getting this big circular movement that I'm going to teach you at the very end of the session, that when you start going bagging around, you can start getting your arms deep.

And if you're not using your legs properly, then I don't know where the golf instruction world led.

People to believe that.

It was so much better to be from the inside hitting golf balls, like, you know, way in from here than it was from, you know.

Being a little bit on top of it, it's not that much better.

Okay, it's actually what took me out of professional golf is coming too far from the inside.

Okay, so that will force you to hit a block or a quick hook.

So the point of what we want to do here is we want you to understand that.

Both movements are going to get you to the same spot, but just different ways now, the way that we like to get you up to the top of the swing, Okay, actually, let's start without a club.

I'm going to show you from the lead side dominant standpoint first.

So for those of you that want to work on this with me, great.

Put your trail hand behind your back or put it in your pocket, okay?

And all we want you to do is we want you to think about your left arm hanging down here freely.

We want you to use that pressure shift.

We're going to use pressure shift at first here because we're not going to be moving through the position, okay?

So the pressure shift, if you guys didn't pay attention to anything I said in session number one, a pressure shift is just going to be, your right hip, right?

So this belt loop is going to move kind of back towards your right ankle and you're going to push down on your right ankle, okay?

Shame on you for not paying attention.

So you're going to pressure shift and then you're going to take and you're going to turn your body.

So you're going to take your right shoulder and pull it back behind your head, and you're going to feel like your left hand moves up above your right shoulder, okay?

Now, this is going to feel, you can kind of hear me grimace, right?

It's going to feel like some work.

because you're going to have some shoulder activation here, because your arms in the golf swing are doing this.

This is shoulder elevation, for those of you that don't know it.

That elevation is going to feel like some work.

So is the body turn.

So is the loading process.

Now, this is going to become easier when we bring your troublemaker back to the side of it.

It's going to help offer support to it.

But we want you to be able to do a bunch of reps where you just think about the pressure shift, body turn, and then you want to let your arm get moved up above your right shoulder and feel like your hand gets.

just above the right shoulder and make sure that this wrist is anatomically flat.

Okay.

Not cupped.

You can go bowed if you want to, but you don't need to.

Okay.

Anatomically flat.

Okay.

So your, your left wrist or your lead wrist, I should say, I'm sorry that I'm beating up all you left handers at home today.

Your lead wrist is going to start a little tiny bit cupped here to dress.

Okay.

And it's going to start, it's going to begin to rotate and it's going to begin to start to set.

So there's going to be some wrist cock.

And by the time you get to the top of the swing, it's going to work itself into an anatomically flat position.

The momentum of the club will help kind of move that into that spot.

Okay.

So you want to make sure that that left wrist is anatomically flat.

Now, remember this finishing move that we're giving you is after you become really proficient with the nine to three stuff, right?

Think about that.

Don't start trying to go into kamikaze mode.

Like you're trying to hit golf balls out of the back of the range.

I've seen plenty of people hit it far enough.

I hit it plenty far enough myself.

Go out there and get this stuff right first, okay?

And then from there, you start working on the finishing move.

So that's just a little kick in the butt at home, all right?

So now, once you've done that, okay, now you can add the club back in the mix.

Same thing, same procedures.

Little pressure shift, okay?

You're gonna turn your body.

Left arm is gonna end up at the top of the golf swing where your left arm anatomically flat.

It's gonna feel pretty heavy because the club is gonna have some momentum and inertia.

But as I said to you before, this is gonna start becoming a little bit easier when you bring the trail hand back to it.

Now let's talk about how I want you to bring your trail hand back to it.

A good method here is you do this rep where you press your shift and you turn.

Okay, now you can bring the right hand back up just to touch the side of the club.

Okay, you can see that I'm in a pretty decent spot here.

Okay, just touch it.

Just by touching the club with two fingers, you would be wildly surprised to know how much that takes the stress off of the left arm.

Right?

So very, very important that you can understand that this is going to act like a support brace, right?

Just a little support system to Then once you start getting proficient with it, you can take that right hand and you can start letting it follow along with the movement all the way to the top of the swing.

Okay?

See how I had to adjust my posture there?

I'm so fat and lazy these days sometimes because I'm not fat and lazy, but I'm a little husky or buxom, right?

I sit at a computer a lot.

And so when you look at me, I'm a little bit rounded from my thoracic spine up.

So I have to remind myself when I'm on, you know, teaching you guys that I've got to get into a better posture here, right?

So we're not all perfect, right?

So I appreciate the enthusiasm though.

All right.

So now from here, what we're going to do is we're going to pressure shift and turn our body.

Okay.

And we're going to make sure that we end up at the top of the swing.

Okay.

So we're letting the right hand follow along with these movements.

Okay.

There.

Now.

Once you get to that position, what do we want you to do?

I hope everybody in this freaking room can answer that question.

We want you to start aggressively getting off the merry-go-round and doing your lower body movement properly to get to that spot.

Now, you're going to hear a lot of people ask me questions at the end where the shallowing move starts to happen.

Shallowing move in the golf swing.

If you remember, the hands and the arms just did this.

They're moving vertically.

The trail arm is flexing a little bit.

When you get to the top and you start moving aggressively from your trail side to your lead side, okay, your hands and your arms, if you keep them relaxed, is going to shallow the golf swing automagically.

If you go up there and you're fighting with tension, trying to keep things locked into space, then guess what?

Then as soon as your hips start rotating, okay, I'm going to show face on here, Kevin, don't worry.

I'm going to turn here in just a moment, okay?

If you get up to the top of the swing, and you lock your arms and your shoulders in place, and you start turning your hips, where are your hands and arms going?

They're going that way, okay?

They're going that way, and that is not going to do you any good.

So this position at the top should feel relaxed.

So if I start shifting, then you're going to see that my arms start coming down off of my shoulders, and I end up in the spot where I'm going to be delivering the club through the hitting area, okay?

So what this is going to look like from face on, okay, is we're going to try to get nice and wide on our right side, okay?

I don't turn that much.

There you go.

So remember, prioritize movement.

If you start trying to pick your arms up into that spot and you don't turn your body, then your arms are going to fire fast.

So how do we finish off the swing lead side?

You start out left arm only.

You make sure that you turn your body to get your arm in the.

the left wrist into that anatomically flat spot.

Piece of cake.

Then you start bringing the club back into the mix.

For those of you that are bothered by momentum and inertia in the club, you can start with the club upside down.

This is a very common practice that you will hear us utilize with students that are maybe battling with losing some sight of where their body is.

Why?

Because when you take momentum and inertia and you add it to the mix, it's amazing how fast the brain wants to shift its attention to what the club is feeling.

So you can do these reps.

Okay?

Same thing.

Okay?

Now, as far as the natural shallowing of the club, Stephen, if you go up to the top of your swing, and let's think about this objectively for a moment here, okay?

This movement, if you take your arms and you lift them up, straight up, right?

Now, if you lift them up to where my elbows are at the base of my chest, and you let your arms settle straight down, right?

This movement right here is going to be happening in the downswing.

It's independent movement from what your shoulders are doing.

Now, let's talk about how to do that.

If you go up to the top of the swing and you don't move your hips and you don't move your shoulders and you lower your arms down, that's the shallowing move that will be happening.

Now, how do we have that work for us?

Well, you've got to stay relaxed in your shoulders.

If you start, again, holding onto too much tension up there, then your arms are not gonna start coming straight down.

So for those of you that have maybe battled with getting the club to work in this direction of the hands and arms, then go up to the top of your swing and feel this for a moment, okay?

Feel your arms do this.

Okay, then aggressively start moving through your axiom movement, okay?

And do the same thing.

So you can see that the hips are going to work on moving the hands and arms out in front.

The hands and arms, You want to feel like they're moving as vertically as possible from the top of the swing.

And allow the hips to dictate the path that the hands and arms are working back out in front.

Body rotation moves the hands and arms out in front.

So very important that you understand that.

So that's the finish of the backswing.

Now, There's going to be some specific checkpoints that you're going to see that.

If you're working on these things slow and chunky, and you want to make sure that you're in the right spot with your hands and arms on the way down.

Those are referenced, but again, that's missing the point.

If you're trying to get to a certain spot midway down, that's not gonna be any good, okay?

You should already have that spot achieved by your nine to three swings, right?

So don't try to think about the positions.

Now, again, If you need to go back and you need to start kind of understanding where your hands need to be down here.

And you need to work on things and reverse engineer back in there, totally fine.

That's why we give you that freedom, that flexibility.

That's why the program is designed the way that it is.

So we get some questions popping up here.

What if you have trouble getting your left arm across your chest?

So your left arm across your chest.

I don't think I said my left arm is going across my chest.

I said, I want you to turn your body to move your arm there.

Your left arm, if it's going across your chest, you're pushing from your lead arm.

That's not going to do you any good.

The right arm.

So if you hold your arms out in front of you, this is a good way to think about this.

This is five minutes to a perfect backswing.

Craig did one called pitfalls where people, we got to watch people screw this one up.

Okay, so if you lift your arm straight up, okay, and then you flex your right arm, okay, from your perspective, I have my right eye covered, right?

So I'm looking out, I can't see through, I can't see you through my right eye.

Then from there, if I go into golf posture, okay, now watch.

I'm gonna hold this position.

Now watch.

I just turn my body, okay?

I didn't swing my left arm across my chest at all.

That's a bad, bad misunderstanding in the world.

That's actually, if you, I don't know if you guys have read through or seen a lot of our videos on some of the injuries, but the number one golf-related injury years ago was lead shoulder impingement.

Think about that.

I would have thought it was like lead hip, lead knee, or back, right?

Lead shoulder impingement.

What does that cause from?

Well, I remember golf instruction telling us to shove our arm across our chest, and that was how you created your backswing.

right?

That is golf instruction that I want to move away from very quickly.

All that does when you start locking your left shoulder up and you start turning your body really hard, then there's a subcromial space that gets all jammed up in there and they have to go dig out.

So if any of you had the shoulder impingement, you would know how uncomfortable it really is.

So back in the notes here or back in the questions.

So Chris, it seems like a slight rotation of the club left hand is required from the top to get the logo.

Yeah, exactly.

So very good question.

If you're thinking about the rate of rotation from here down to here, probably not the best thing for you, okay?

Because again, you start kind of thinking about all the nuts and bolts of when you have to time that stuff up, not a great thing.

But if you think about it as two specific positions, here and then here, okay?

Then you're on fire, okay?

Here and then here.

There are going to be some cases with students that maybe they go up to the top of the swing and they start laying things off and they don't start squaring the face early.

Then that would be addressed in a very specific sort of lesson with us, right?

There's videos on the website called squaring the face early.

There's one called trace the plane line.

There's one called the knuckles down logo down drill.

So, but if you're thinking about things that are happening fast from here down into the hitting area, that's a good way for you to get a little bit locked up.

Remember, this is all about movement.

right?

We're giving you a little bit of freedom here to have some movement, but in order to get to that big full swing anyways, you better have this stuff, right?

You better have the release stuff, right?

And you better have a good nine to three swing, right?

That's why we put this program back together is that if you start thinking about all of the backs and all of the minutiae that goes along with it, and you're not doing this stuff well enough, then I'm not going to guarantee you your success.

I'm not going to tell you that you're going to hit the ball well, because getting up into this spot, if you get to here and it looks great on camera, Okay, which is awesome.

You can make a whole lot of mistakes on the downward half if you start driving hard off your right leg and your hips come forward, or let's say you spin really hard, whatever it is.

So very important that you understand that.

So what if you're restricted with elevation of your left shoulder?

So elevation is 135% of variable.

So what I mean by variable is we like to have things kind of middle of the road, right?

Where we can get the most efficiency out of the movement.

Chuck did a study on high hands versus low hands.

So we like to have the right elbow right at the base of the chest.

That doesn't mean that you have to go to that spot.

If you want to be a little bit lower, fine.

If you want to be a little bit higher, like Davis Love III, who, if you look at his golf swing back in his heyday, had heaps and heaps and heaps of elevation.

But you have to remember, having all that elevation is great because it's widening the arc.

But now you have to rebalance and say, okay, now what does he have to do in the downward half?

Well, he's going to have to be real patient with his body, right?

He's going to have to allow his arms to really start coming down without any sort of violent move from his upper half.

Otherwise, he's going to move it out away from him.

So you don't need to have a lot of strength or a lot of mobility in the shoulders.

And same thing with, you know, when you see a right elbow position at the top of the swing, and a lot of you can test this in just a moment, right?

I have some humorous rotation available to me.

So humorous rotation, if you want to test this, okay, because this is going to help you set it on plane.

I know everybody wants that.

pretty looking backswing before they have good impact positions, but I get it.

If you hold your right arm out in front of you, you flex it to 80 or 90 degrees, and then you move your hand out away from you, you can see that I have a lot of external humerus rotation.

This at the top of the swing helps hold the right elbow in line.

Now, I've seen people, I actually have a lot of people I work with, that have no mobility.

They can't move their arm away from them at all.

Because they might have had rotator cuff surgery, or maybe they've got, you know, some issues with their labrum or more, maybe they've got a frozen shoulder, whatever.

Those are variables, so variables will work within the confines of.

So, we just want you to kind of stay down the middle of the road.

We want your hands to be above your right shoulder, we want the right elbow in line with your torso, and that's really it.

So all right.

So I think that if you follow that procedure, getting your left arm Into the correct spot with your right hand, then becoming a backseat passenger, those movements.

Then you're gonna find that you hit that really good-looking spot.

Everybody claps for you because it looks so good on camera right now.

Let's talk about those of you that are Trailside dominant.

And the reason why I say this in this manner is because.

This big circular movement that you've probably seen from the axiom, from the the Trail arm is a little distracting.

To me.

As a golfer, that's always been lead side.

I've always been lead side dominant.

So to make this big movement with my arm, it felt a little bit unorthodox.

But I did see right out of the gate when this thing was introduced, a lot of people that swung the club over the top their entire life get this little fault fixed.

So I can't do this with a golf club in my hands because of the setup that I have here in the studio here.

But I can show you with the arm.

So basically, the axiom is founded in movement in one direction, right?

So we're going to be making that clockwise circle around the perimeter of our foot.

And now, if you think about making a clockwise circle with your right arm, independent from that movement, right?

This is what we call the air guitar, right?

And then you try to marry those back together, right?

So you're going to start moving around the merry-go-round.

And you're going to start using that special sauce, right?

Now, this is a very, very big pronounced movement.

that's going to be eventually toned back, right?

Now you can see is as I'm getting off the merry-go-round, you can see that I'm strumming up on that guitar.

So for those of you that have played Guitar Hero, or maybe some of you are guitarists, right?

The big payoff there is when you start moving off the merry-go-round, that you're going to be strumming up on that thing, right?

Now, that movement, when you think about it in a golf swing format, okay, is going to help keep the hands and arms from doing this on the way down, right?

So if you're moving in one direction, you can see that it's almost impossible.

It's impossible for me to get my hands and arms to do this.

What's 90% of the golfing or 99% of the golfing population battle with?

Well, they battle from being over the top and slicing the golf ball.

But we also understand that a lot of you are very well-versed golfers.

A lot of you have played golf for an extended period of time.

So most of you aren't swinging in the club over the top that much.

But if you are, you've always been one of those very big upper body driven swings that uses too much arms and shoulders, then you're going to want to go down this pathway.

You're going to want to try to get your right arm to feel like it's doing that.

Now, when you start introducing the club back to your hands, okay, and I can't do this here because I have a giant fan above me right up here.

I'll break that.

When you start doing that movement, okay, it's going to feel very robust.

It's going to feel huge.

But as soon as you bring the left hand back on the side of the club, it's going to feel a little bit less, right?

And then what you can start doing is you can start tightening that circle down, right?

You can start working through getting that circle to be a little bit smaller and a little bit smaller and a little bit smaller.

And that keeps you into that trail side dominant sort of pathway, right?

Again, I wanted to go down the pathway where I've, you know, I've spent a lot of time over the last 10 or 11 years within the website.

And a lot of the success that I've seen has always been through the lead side.

But again, I'm not ever, ever against taking on new ways of instruction that are going to help you guys get to the end result.

That would be foolish.

That would be, I would be dead in the golf instruction world.

That's one of the things I hate about golf instruction is that none of us agree on anything, right?

None of us do.

And so if you go and you watch other golf pros or you listen to other instruction, it's like, they're not willing to try to take on and understand what else is out there.

Like for instance, I saw somebody on YouTube the other day teaching reverse pivot.

I don't know if I mentioned this early in the camp, but he was teaching reverse pivot.

And the following, he has a big following.

He was literally teaching people to do this.

And the following of what you were seeing in the comments was like, this guy was a god.

And he's had a sword.

And some of you will know who I'm talking about when I say sword.

He had a sword in his intro.

And he's like out there, he's like, I'm going to show you Ben Hogan's best secret ever.

And he was coming up off of his right leg.

And I was seeing everybody do this.

And I was like, but when you look at it, I can't get, I'm not going to go into the comments and be like, this is wrong.

Because what are we trying to do?

We're trying to help you get better at golf.

So if you have to go down the pathway of using your trail arm to help you overcome a fault, right?

Then go down that pathway.

But you're always going to hear me specifically.

And you'll probably hear Craig specifically because we're both very lead side dominant.

players ourselves, but also lead side dominant instructors, you're going to hear us steer you in that pathway.

Because I've worked with a lot of people that have had trail side dominance their life and been able to get them to switch over and actually develop really good golf spins.

And the beauty of the RST fundamentals is that it is the safest, most efficient way to spin the golf club.

And nobody can argue with us on that one because it's backed by physics.

It's backed by science.

When we start talking about biomechanics, some of the stuff that we talk about, It would blow your mind because.

You think about even your knee and your hip, and how a little pressure change through your foot can actually put your knee into this really dangerous position when your knee's just not designed to rotate.

Those are things that we understand.

And so with all we've ever taught at Rotary Swing, we've always taught you to be safe.

And you can still be safe with doing this stuff with your trail side.

But just remember, keep things toned back to where you're not going to start having excessive movement and put your body under the gun.

Can you show how to focus on clockwise rotation of the club using lead arm?

So I virtually did that.

And the reason why I want to remove that from your brain right now is because of how easy it is for you to get your left arm to this spot, right?

I know a lot of you want to try to feel that movement from the lead side.

You can do this from the lead side.

This is, again, this is reflected on the video.

If you go and watch Chuck, okay, Chuck is.

the master of delivering information and the master of being able to demonstrate this stuff, he's going to probably give you a little bit better sort of visual of it.

I don't, again, like to feel excessive movement in my swing because I've never had it.

And so if I don't have it, then it's harder for me to teach it and show it to you properly.

Hopefully that makes sense.

But you can.

You can go back and there's reference videos on these slides that will connect to what you're asking for.

But you can do this.

with the lead arm as well.

Again, that's a different way to kind of look at it.

But if you look at an easy way to get your backswing into the right spot, because it needs to be in this spot, no matter if it's right side or left side, turn your body and elevate your hand above your right shoulder and you're there, right?

If you just think about where your hand and your arm are going to end up, you naturally start moving this into this position as long as you're moving in the correct order.

So sorry, Greg, I'm not trying to evade the question, but I was, I'm really trying to keep things kind of the way that I know that you're going to get success based off of the way that I teach So can you believe it?

That's the information, right?

I know I didn't give you tons and tons and tons of stuff with the trail side, but I showed you how to do it.

And I showed you that you can start making this movement happen and you can bring the club back in and then you can bring the lead side back to it.

Remember, the position that you're seeing up here is where you need to be.

If it's deep, you're going to be in trouble.

Don't let yourself get deep.

But I will say this.

For those of you that have never felt that shallowing move of your arms, you'll definitely feel a shallowing move start to happen when you start moving your right arm around the clock.

So now what I would like to do is I would like to just do a quick recap, okay?

The recap of this whole program is this.

Start slow.

Make sure your setup is good.

I've seen some setups.

That's ideal.

If you don't think a setup is important, then stick around.

Let's talk about it because setups can affect the way that you move pretty radically.

Preloaded right sides, stance width, too much knee flex.

That stuff we listed on your slides for a pretty good freaking reason, right?

Okay.

Because of the fact that we know that these faults or these added things that you might be doing create mountainous amounts of faults behind it.

Okay.

So start small, get the setup right, but also go down the pathway where you start focusing on what your legs and your hips are doing.

Get that stuff right.

Do it slow and chunky at first and then use the movement that I talked about here today where you're really starting to, okay, I'm using the axiom movement.

I can feel that pressure shift and now I know when I get to 6 o'clock and I move to 7, 8, 9 that I should be feeling my body move.

I should be feeling that.

Counterbalance it with what we're talking about with the left butt and you're cooking.

Start putting the shoulders back to it.

Add the arm.

Get the club.

When the club comes back in, get both hands on there.

Start small.

Build it up.

Get to the point where you can hit golf balls.

If you can hit golf balls at nine to three and you can look like this at impact, right?

Just like this.

If you can look like this at impact in nine to three format, then I will tell you to go forth, my child.

Because if you remember, I said to you guys in session number two, the only thing that matters in golf is impact, right?

Impact.

We want your hands over on your left thigh.

We want your hips open 45.

We want your club face square, okay?

These positions right here, if you can do that in nine to three, okay, and you can move through it properly, then go to full swing.

Finish this puppy off.

Stop playing miserable golf, right?

This is going to allow you to be able to kind of be your own coaches now because you can go out there and say, I don't see that my impact position is good.

What did Chris say?

Well, I addressed a lot of the faults, right?

If you start looking at it and you're like, okay, my hips aren't into that good spot, then aggressively start working on your hips.

If you see that you're flipping at it, well, focus on what your arms are doing.

That's why this program is my favorite delivery.

because I said it to you guys, I don't know if you guys caught it, but Chuck and I, when we were doing clinics together, we did 38 of them.

We started working from hip high to hip high and people were like, I'm hitting hip high to hip high shots all weekend.

But by the end of the weekend, when they were hitting steamboat laser beams, like, which I don't know if you've all heard a shot that's compressed, what the ball does, it hisses.

It's nice.

It's sexy sound.

I love that sound.

In fact, I could turn my back to a golf lesson and just listen to that sound and know if you guys are doing things right.

When you can start doing that, then slowly start building more into it.

If you go down this pathway where you reverse engineer, like I taught you how to do over these last four sessions, I guarantee you success.

I guarantee it.

Craig guarantees it.

Chuck guarantees it.

And this is, again, how you have to approach the situation.

So now let's talk about your pathway moving forward.

Each and every one of you is going to be a little bit different.

Everybody is.

Some of you show up with some big faults.

Some of you show up pretty close to being able to do this stuff.

Whatever it is, do not feel like you're alone in this journey, okay?

You can go back through the video replays and watch it over and over again.

Those are there for you and for the rest of your lives, okay?

Go back through.

If you find that the answers aren't really relating to you, then use swing reviews, okay?

We have unlimited swing reviews available, and then you can buy packages of reviews if you need to.

I find that the unlimited swing reviews is probably.

The best bang for your buck because it gives you unlimited access to myself or to Craig.

And we can sit there and go through this stuff piece by piece with you and we can customize your program.

And that helps you kind of get away from getting lost in all of the videos that are on the website.

Right?

Because I know a lot of you will go down this rabbit hole where you start trying to look at all these videos.

Like, Oh, boom, that's what, that's me, right?

But that may not be the best way to fix it.

So having a hand holding experience is generally pretty beneficial to you.

If the, again, please don't take that as a sales pitch.

I hate sales pitch stuff.

So just get past that.

So if you need that constant support, we're there.

We got plenty of spots open in both groups.

If you want to use the community forums, I saw some great stuff going on in the communities where you guys were asking great questions.

Other students were jumping in.

Craig was answering a lot of the questions that's there as well.

Okay.

But being able to go and use the reference videos and use this, this reference slide as well, and kind of relating it back to how I deliver the information.

Again, I said this to you guys out of session one.

I'm going to deliver the information differently than Chuck.

Chuck's going to deliver the information differently than Craig.

We're all going to deliver a little bit differently.

But it comes back to the same thing, okay, it comes back to the same principles and same fundamentals that we always teach, just different ways to be able to get you there.

And so hopefully you guys have enjoyed what you've seen over these four sessions.

And I want to thank you guys very much for taking time out of your, out of your days to sit here with me.

Because I know that a lot of you guys are really busy, I know that you guys have other important things going on in your life and It means a lot to me.

And the feedback that you guys have given me has been awesome.

I really, I appreciate it.

And I know I'm not awesome at delivering information.

Sometimes I talk fast.

I get it.

But just understand that my passion in the world of golf instruction is to help you guys get better.

And hopefully you guys get to see that with today's presentation and the three subsequent ones as well.

And I really do hope you guys have the best success with this stuff.

And so if there's anything that we can do moving forward to help you guys in this process to become really good ball strikers, please let us know.

If you want to send some good feedback, that's always welcome.

Much appreciated.

I got a chance to talk to a lot of awesome, awesome people over these last few days.

And so I do appreciate everything you guys have done.

Now, with that being said, I know a lot of you guys have things to do.

You guys can get out of here.

Go have some fun, work on it.

Show us what you got, right?

If you want to just send in some videos in the forums and be like, hey, we're into the community.

Like, look at this, like by transformation.

Awesome, right?

Don't be giving away the secret sauce to the other people out there, right?

This is our move, right?

This is our secret.

Okay, have some fun with it.

Get out there, play some awesome golf, okay?

And thank you guys again for an awesome, awesome four sessions.

Now I will open up to questions.

If there are any questions, all right, see, everybody's taking off.

Everybody's got things to do on a Saturday.

I get it.

I got some things to do on Saturday too, but I'll stay here.

All right, wish we could have stuck with a PDF page per page, could have kept notes per page.

So Orlando, you can go back and click through this.

I made this last minute decision and I apologize, okay?

I made this decision because we have time constraints.

And a lot of you on Tuesday heard that I was gonna do some live training with other students, and I wanted so badly, but going back through this and being able to get the information into your brain about how to get everything condensed down into an hour's time, Was impossible, it was impossible for me to do it right.

I'm very long-winded and I want to find the key points that are going to press into your brain to be able to build this swing.

So I apologize, but I had to make a last minute decision to help move the presentation along.

And, uh, get you to the spot where I think it's going to be good.

So all right, how long will the webinars be available to watch?

You should have them for the for life we we in the past we we gave you.

I think 30 or 60 days we had to lock them out because People are starting to share those.

And that's not good that we don't want that.

So they will be available.

All right.

So is the clockwise move applicable when you are just practicing nine to three or is it only for the extended swing?

No, nine to three can be moved with the axi movement all day long.

All day long.

Thank you, Nicholas.

I really appreciate So can you go over the timing between weight shift post-up and drop in the hands with gravity?

Absolutely.

So timing is one of those things we're trying to move you away from, but you have to remember that the muscle tension signals that your brain's going to get when you go through this stuff, right?

The first thing we want to do is make sure that we get full turn.

And as you're getting to that full 90 degree turn, your weight should be well back into six o'clock.

And this is when you should be working to get right off that merry-go-round as quickly as you possibly can.

Now thinking about the.

the stuff that's happening in between post-up like transition, like squat to square to that position is not something that we want you to have to think about the timing of because we're moving through it so fast.

So you want to just use the signal of, okay, I feel my weight moving around the perimeter of my foot.

I'm turning my body as fully as I can.

When the weight gets to six, this is when you need to start making some action happen.

Don't wait because if you wait, okay, then what's going to happen is you're going to start doing a big old closed hip slide.

which can get you into trouble.

So it's right when you get to six o'clock and you felt like your body is in that full turn position, start aggressively moving, right?

Really driving up through six, seven, eight, nine, pushing as hard as you want.

Remember, you can push your body in this direction because things are happening fast, but you better counterbalance it with that left butt movement that I talked about.

Because if you're pushing and you're not doing that movement correct, then you're going to come up out of posture.

Chris, can you show us the actual finish of the golf swing?

Absolutely.

A finish is just the safest way to decelerate the golf club.

So if I were to go and do my movement here, okay, you can see that.

I'm up on my right toe, right?

I'm.

My chest is turning the direction of the target.

I would say that this is a finished position because my toe box is not creased, right, so you can see my right foot, it's not creased.

Most of my weight is over on my left foot, all my weight's on my left foot.

So what that looks like from up the line?

Okay.

That's what it looks like.

All right.

So I noticed clockwise moves takes my head further off the ball in the back, so maybe focus on feet and not the whole body to fix.

So now this is a big fault that I've seen, and Craig can comment on this one as well.

If you start trying to hold still, it's very easy for you to rotate the weight around your perimeter of your foot and think that this is movement.

Now, if you see that your head's moving too far off the ball, okay, there's a good chance that you're turning him.

incorrectly.

So, you would want to make sure that you were taking the right shoulder and pulling it up behind the head and letting the left shoulder work down underneath.

If you need a drill to help you out with that, you can stick your head up against a wall.

Just make sure it's not a rock wall, right, Greg?

And you can do a little pressure shift, feel a little bit of slide, but then from there, just keep it really still.

Okay.

So when do we introduce shoulder elevation?

So shoulder elevation is happening very, very delicately through the takeaway into the backswing.

It's just a very gradual movement.

In fact, you really don't even see it into the takeaway.

We give you some specific kind of checkpoints that you can use in the pool noodle drill, which is an old video that I did 50 pounds ago and eight years ago.

But you can see that there's a good hand position that you can reference and then there's a hand position at the top.

Can you do a quick summary from no club to lead arm to add club then trail arm?

Orlando, didn't I already do that?

So can you do a quick summary from no club to lead arm to add the club?

Yeah.

So start with your lower body, right?

Start with your lower body, get that working.

Okay.

Remember, do that with the axiom movement.

Then you want to add the special sauce in by thinking about what your left butt's doing.

Okay.

Then you want to add the body rotation.

Okay.

With that going back.

So now you're getting your body to start working with it.

And then you're going to add the lead arm.

You're going to make sure that, and if you want, you can go back and watch the very start of the video today when I walked you through the kind of step-by -step process to get there.

Getting to nine to three is where you should really try to get to with that warmup and get the club in there.

And then from there, what you're going to find is, and this is something that I probably should have talked about in the session when we were going, is that if you start and you go to nine to three, and you start getting really proficient with this, then you're going to find, and this is something so common, you're going to find that the more practice that your swing is just going to become longer and longer and longer, you're going to be almost into full swing format.

And that happens subconsciously.

And that's okay, right?

That's a good thing.

And I hear it all the time.

People are like, all right, I only have my hands at hip high.

Well, no, I'm like, you got your hands and arms up around your right shoulder.

So very common.

So if you get to nine to three, and then you allow it to organically, which I don't like that word, but.

You allow it to organically get longer and longer.

That's a good approach too.

So if you have limited external rotation in the right shoulder on the backswing, should you have lower hands in the backswing?

And does that limited rotation contribute to the over the top?

So you can still have your right elbow flare behind you a little bit.

What that's going to do is it's going to stand the shaft plane up.

So let me explain this to you.

So if I go up to the top of my swing, okay, and you see my right elbow like here, now watch what happens to the shaft plane as I bring my elbow So you can, in both positions, you can get your arms to come down.

But again, the shaft plane is always going to look a little bit on the steeper side to you.

That's why a lot of times we don't, I don't like when people do a lot of their own analysis on the swing plane, because people don't understand the optical illusion that can happen with swing plane.

Or something like that.

Like for instance, if you get your wrists fully cocked at the top of the swing and you start dragging the hands and arms down, it's going to look very steep to us.

Right, that added wrist angle is going to not have it going through the middle of the forearm on the way down, right?

We all talk about these fancy positions that we all know so much.

Like the slot.

So the slot is one of my least favorite terminologies in golf instruction, right?

The slot is just again.

It's a butchered sort of understanding, so there's a lot of components to it.

So you can have your right elbow flared back, it's just going to be a little less off plane.

Okay, it doesn't mean that you're going to swing over the top.

It's a very dominant position for your right side to be in, right, so your right arm gets back here.

It wants to kind of help throw and release in this way, but you can still get to that spot and have your arms drop down.

You just remember that at that point, your right elbow is going to be maybe a little bit further behind you all the way down.

You might have to be a little bit more of a push releaser.

Totally acceptable.

So hopefully that answered your question.

I've noticed sometimes when I end backswing to impact, my head goes Far back towards six Any suggestions?

So you want to start minimizing or you want to start shrinking that circle down, right?

The right heel, you hear me?

And I said this to you guys before.

I make a mistake where I say right heel, right ankle, right?

I don't want you guys to get back here to where your toes are.

So you're going to want to start kind of minimizing and shrinking that circle down just a little bit.

But that's good that you're feeling that much movement right now.

So hopefully that answers.

See you, Neil.

Thank you, guys.

Thank you, Mitchell.

So yeah, exactly.

So Ronan, I'm talking about your head too.

So when you get to the extreme part here, okay, and your head's moving back, you're getting too far back into that position.

All right.

And if I was losing posture, it could be.

So you could be standing up out of posture.

You could have bad posture from the get-go, right?

So you want to make sure that you've hinged enough from your hips, okay?

And then make sure that you're not sitting back in the heels, okay?

And then start moving around.

You see my head moves back with it a little bit.

That's not going to happen when you're in full swing format.

This is just to help get your movement started.

If you're losing balance, you're going too far back.

Again, I said to you guys before, this is a much more pronounced movement at first.

It becomes smaller and smaller and smaller.

When this is all said and done, I want you to watch my right foot.

Watch.

Did you see me move around the merry-go -round?

Watch.

Did you see it?

Probably not.

You're not going to see it that pronounced.

But if you have like a force plate underneath me and you do a pressure trace, you can see that it works very much like that.

Just not, I don't see me go to the forward part of the foot as much.

All right.

Thanks.

Hope everyone can go out and hit some crispy KFC shots without the sword.

I see you, Conrad.

Crispy KFC, so I know you've seen the channel.

All right, so thanks guys.

Oh, thank you, Greg.

We really do appreciate it.

Thank you guys very much.

Okay, so it sounds like we are winding down.

If there's any other questions, I'll stay and answer a few more if there is.

Give you a chance to be able to type some of these things up if you need to or if you can copy and paste it.

Thank you, Dennis.

Much appreciated.

Do you use the Axiom for the short swing?

Sure.

Said that before.

Yeah, absolutely.

Feel free.

The Axiom, this footwork is virtually your engine of your golf swing, right?

This movement is helping you move your hips.

So whether it's done in these small little tiny little release drills, if you're good enough to be able to get that to be a focus point and still get your hands and arms to do it right, tie it together.

When you get really good at it and you start making little nine to three swings, totally fine as well.

You want to remember your hips and your legs are your engine of your swing.

The stuff that I was doing release related, if you need to have just some focus release stuff and just get on your left side and don't use that movement and then try to blend them back together.

So thank you, Anthony.

I appreciate it.

Even for a chip shot, Ronan, even for a chip shot.

There's actually, there's some videos on the website that talk about Axiom short game.

So Fred says, post-impact, I was falling back off my left foot heel.

Is that because I'm spinning?

So yeah, it could be.

So if you're falling back off the left heel, it could be the hips trying to rotate out too much.

Could be you didn't get the hip to neutral.

Just make sure that, and I talked about this, I think in session two or three, where from a static address position, move your left hip and open your hips up so that it's in neutral.

So you can feel like the position you're trying to get to, right?

You want to feel the weight kind of pinned underneath your ankle joint.

Okay.

And you want to feel your foot flat to the floor.

Okay.

And then move back to that position.

Okay.

And then start getting it a little bit longer.

Okay.

Really good, simple little way to be able to kind of correct that.

How do I get the PDF files?

You asked me that on session number four.

So I'm just giving you a hard time.

You should have had this in session number one.

Email customer support.

See us at rotary swing.

com.

And they'll get that over to you.

If your lead wrist doesn't naturally flatten at the top, what's a good drill?

So you need to make sure that your wrist and your forearm rotate, number one.

And you need to make sure that at the top of the golf swing that you're not trying to get control of it.

Trying to get control of the club is why people get across the line, right?

Or they get that cupped position.

So you get that.

That's because you're trying to get control of something that would feel like it's pulling back in this direction.

So a good drill is to do exactly what I just showed you.

Start out without the golf club.

and make sure that your left wrist and forearm rotate.

Now you're going to see that at the top of the swing, my forearm and my wrist are kind of pointed up towards the ceiling, not fully up to the ceiling, but you'll see that it rotates up.

Generally speaking, when you don't have your left wrist work to a flat position, it's from you trying to get in control of something or not having enough wrist and forearm rotation.

Okay.

All right.

So John, thank you very much.

Much appreciated.

Thank you for the kind words.

where to begin to bow your left wrist.

So if you want to go up to the top and bow your left wrist, you can.

You don't need to.

You got to be careful with that.

That's starting to change the complexity of the face angle.

So I can do it without the club fine, but when I grab the club, it stays cupped.

So this is where you got to kind of pick and choose your battles, right?

When you do it with a golf club flipped upside down, can you do it, right?

Can you do that with a club upside down?

If you can't, then I would probably suggest that you get it in for a review so we can look at it very closely, okay?

So if you do it without, okay, so you're doing it with the club flipped upside down, but when you go to the heavy end, you can't do it.

So that is probably just a control thing.

You're trying to get, think about it this way, okay?

I turn my body, my wrist is flat.

This club wants to pull down on my wrist, right?

It's very uncomfortable.

What we do to help support it is just give it a little bit of effort here.

Now, when you have momentum and inertia at high rates of speed, You're going to want to try to do that to get control of it.

So I would say bring your right hand back to the side of the club right away.

Okay, just let it follow along.

Okay, and then focus on the left wrist, feeling like the club is kind of pulling it down into that position.

If you feel the momentum or the inertia of the club pulling down in this direction, then chances are it's going to be flat at the top of the swing.

But if you feel like the club is pointed more up to the ceiling, you probably have too much tension.

All right.

I've done previous boot camps and it was said that the right foot stays down through impact.

Is that true when you're getting off the merry-go-round doing the axis move?

Yeah.

So the right foot, when you start moving from the merry-go-round, you're going to see that it kind of peaks up off the ground here.

Okay.

We still want it to act as a break for the body.

If you're super advanced with your hips, then you can come back down into what you've probably heard with the dead drill stuff.

We're totally fine with that.

But if you need that extra boost to help get the hips out of the way.

What you're seeing here is totally fine, right?

We just don't want you to use that in a way where it's going to bring your hips forward or it's going to cause you to spin, okay?

So thank you, Philip.

Appreciate it.

So I three-finger grip something that you use in a full swing, nine to three.

Yep, it's a three-finger grip.

I use it nice and light.

I try to keep it as light as possible.

In fact, I demonstrate this with just my pinky because everybody tends to overcook it.

With having too much tension there, then I start putting two fingers on and I start doing three fingers.

Okay, so good way to kind of go through it.

So, Wayne says, after impact, my shoulders feel too level instead of my left shoulder higher than the right.

Any thoughts?

So you're turning your body to through the hitting area, you want your upper body to stay back behind the shot, so when you get to impact, okay.

Right here, you want to make sure that your head and your chest stay back and behind it.

So a good way to think about it is keep your buttons on your shirt behind your belt buckle, okay?

If you turn your shoulders flat, your buttons are now over the top of your belt buckle.

But do not, and I repeat, do not start trying to do this before impact, okay?

Because then at that point, you're going to create the fault that drives me freaking bonkers, and that's having too much secondary access to the impact.

There, I just said it.

Okay, so how many reps does it take for muscles to start making a new move?

I've heard 1,000 to 3,000.

So 3,000 to 5,000 is generally where it becomes a movement pattern.

1,000 reps, if it's completely new, is where the brain can actually start grabbing onto it pretty quickly.

3,000 to 5,000 is when it becomes a movement pattern.

But that doesn't mean that you need to stop at that mark and you own it.

There's a lot of studies that talk about the 10,000 rep mark and the 20,000 rep mark being the master of movement.

Because what you have to remember is that that old movement pattern sits on the bench and it wants to come in off the bench pretty quickly.

So you have to continue to make that movement pattern stronger and stronger.

I've played golf for 34 years and my movement patterns are buttoned up.

Now, it doesn't mean that they're right, but if I wanted to change something within that movement pattern, it would be a very difficult process.

So I think we are slowing down a little bit.

So I want to say thank you very much to Craig Morrow as well.

Craig is an absolute storm ship trooper.

For those of you that don't know, Craig had a little accident recently and for him to be able to get himself into a position where he can come in here and answer so many questions.

Thank you, Craig.

You're awesome.

I appreciate it.

It's been such a good, good help.

So, all right.

Looks like we have neared.

the end of this golfing beautification process.

All right, guys.

Get out there.

Good luck.

Play some great golf, right?

I really do appreciate you guys taking time out of your day.

You guys have been an absolutely fantastic audience.

Thank you so much for the kind words.

Thank you very much for putting up with us for these four sessions.

Hopefully you guys get some great success.

We will talk to you guys soon.
