ENTRENAMIENTO DE LA FLEXIBILIDAD EN EL GOLF

La producción científica orientada al desarrollo y estudio de la importancia de la flexibilidad en el golf se ha realizado en 2 líneas:
- A performance-oriented, giving priority to exploring the relationship between changes in flexibility and speed and hit (See References 3,4,5,6,8,9,10,11)
- Other-oriented injury prevention and conditioning
older populations (see references 1,7,12)

What conclusions and findings on flexibility are applicable in a training program?

First, the joints studied in studies
flexibility in golf are mostly the shoulder, hip and spine, and to a lesser extent, the wrists and the lumbar spine and pelvis.

Despite the consensus on the importance flexibility as a means of injury preventer, not clearly the techniques, methods and more appropriate periodization. Some studies suggest

training programs based on proprioception (curiously, shoulder and ankle, not his shoulder, as the program is registered and patented in the United States can be seen in Reference 8) or the NFP method (Facilicitación Neuromuscular proprioceptive, see Reference 3).

The flexibility has a direct bearing on the improvement of scrimmage, especially in the swing, improving range of the maximum angle in the scrimmage. Not known, the various methods of flexibility, which is the most
appropriate, while noting that proprioceptive training is undervalued and is already improving the number of rigorous studies dedicated. These studies point to the progressive decline in flexibility with increasing age and greater flexibility for women golfers to men, who, as a practical consequence at first glance, notes the importance of greater flexibility in working golfers over 40.

What can we make it clear? Like the approach proposed by Myers and collaborators (see Reference 6) is adequate to know the starting point for instructors and monitors. From there, learning the techniques used (or active methods passive, PNF), you can report positive or negative effects of flexibility on specific phases of hit or swing, or the ratio of the best values \u200b\u200bVarion flexibility with strength in specific muscle groups.

For example, if we look at the shoulder joint, we know that it is necessary to improve both flexibility and strength values \u200b\u200b
to improve in range and speed to reach the ball in the swing. Are there any techniques to improve flexibility in shoulder
can be counterproductive to the improvement in values \u200b\u200bof strength? Does proprioception of the shoulder works so as not to prejudice the dolls?
The answer to these questions make the quality of a fitness program or probation in golf.

Aside from the approaches of the official conference on Science and Golf, and publications of academic impact, perhaps the future of this discipline is at the neuromuscular perspective, especially the work done in golf by the Neuromuscular Research Laboratory University of Pittsburgh (Pennsylvania, USA).

FLEXIBILITY AND STRENGTH AND GOLF GOLF GOLF TRAINING

El enfoque científico del entrenamiento de fuerza en golf se ha dirigido especialmente a muscle groups of shoulder, hip and trunk rotators in strength programs designed specifically for golf.

not find any English study on this topic: It is striking that this occurs in a country that invests in the creation of golf-related areas and the training of players.

There is a line of study of improved performance, in which programs are implemented between 8 and 11 weeks and analyzed changes at the end of the program in federal golfers. These studies tend to analyze two types of variables: First, the functional improvement in muscle groups outlined above, and secondly, the improvement of specific values Performance in golf, the distance of the drive, putt or control the speed at the point of impact or acceleration.

This research looks for relationships of improvements and declines, and perhaps still at an early stage has not yet found a "formula optimization" are usually given for good functional improvements in functional groups, and even relate technical aspects such as performance on the drive or putt, not known, or consult experts in technical courses that could indicate the ideal or optimal values. Perhaps an interesting future direction is to relate ratios of different muscle groups with the flexibility or further analysis of physical and technical relations.

Other lines of research focus on rehabilitation, rehabilitation and injury prevention, especially in the back of the golfer, and to a lesser extent, on the shoulder. We

now a more detailed analysis of the research strength in performance-oriented golf:

Sell's article and others (Reference 1, year 2007) shows that there is little scientific research on golf, despite the high number for proposals for training and support. Therefore, this paper studies the importance of strength, flexibility and balance.
After applying tests golfers of different levels, it is concluded that the qualities that differentiates the quality of the golfer are:
* values \u200b\u200bof strength and flexibility in the hip, trunk and shoulder stability
* Balance-open eyes
This study was conducted in male golfers uninjured average age of 45 years.

In another study (Lephart et al, reference 2, year 2007) was applied training program for golfers trained 8 weeks (nearly 2 / 3 times per week for at least the last year) with an average age of 47 years . After applying a specific training program conditionally applied to golf, in 3-4 sessions a week, tests were made of the following values:

* Strength in the trunk, shoulder and hip
* Flexibility * Balance, Stability

* *
swing mechanics golf specific Performance Following

8 weeks of training were significant improvements were seen in:
* Strength: trunk rotation, shoulder abduction,
* Flexibility: improved continuously in the trunk, shoulder and hip.
* Rotate the upper body at the point of acceleration of the swing.

no significant improvements were seen in:
- Distance and speed of scrimmage
- Stability and balance are

Decreases in:
- upper trunk rotation in the acceleration and impact points
- pelvic rotation points "top" and acceleration


Another study (Doan et al, Reference 3 in 2006) implemented a program Conditional physical training of 11 weeks in 16 golfers (10 men and 6 women) of Division 1 of the NCAA and found improvements of between 7.3% and 19.9% \u200b\u200bin values \u200b\u200bof strength, power and flexibility. In addition, it helped improve speed "clubhead" without harming the putt. However, putting distance control was significantly improved in the group of men but not women.

Another study (Fletcher et al, Reference 7, year 2004) that implemented a training program for 8 weeks, combining free weights and plyometrics, there was a speed improvement "clubhead" and the distance of the drive, as well as values force and acceleration necessary sequential different muscle groups involved in the gesture.

Discjuggler Need To Reboot




Hello again, this time he wanted to speak of emotions ...

"Why the title?
... it is because I am joining these letters to form words, which in turn form sentences, more or less sense, I want to dedicate to someone very special to me ... and this title has special significance for the ... Louis, is for you :-)

Let's start with sadness, so that the title makes more sense ...

... Sadness ... What emotion

more "curious", right?

Who has not ever felt sad?
Who has not felt sorry ever?
Who has not cried for a lost love, disappointment, a disappointment ...?
Who has not felt sad for no reason?

Sadness is an emotion, but what sorrow is a negative emotion?

... Are they positive or negative emotions?

Are only positive emotions that give us a pleasant and well-being?
Or are they those who provide positive learning?
What emotions are those that give us good?
What emotions are those who provide learning?

Is sadness a positive emotion or negative? ...
Is the joy a positive or negative emotion? ...
Is impatience a positive or negative emotion? ...
Is security a positive or negative emotion? ...

... Are emotions in themselves negative or positive?

Do you know?, Sometimes there are days cold and gray, cloudy days truly ...
...
stormy days ... where it rains incessantly, and where dark gray color and is able to spread

soul ... ... but, these days do not last forever, and through the clouds, when least expected, as these are neglected, a small ray of light can his way up to become a great stream of light, which gradually gives way to clarity, brightness, and, thanks to the drops that caused the storm, resulting in that wonderful rainbow of color can illuminate our hearts ...

Better the storm or the rainbow?
Does light or dark?

And I wonder ... Can

to form the beautiful rainbow, without the drops left Rain ...?
Does the morning dew, not frost last night ...?

Is it possible to enjoy the light, unless we know what gloom?
Is it possible to appreciate the colors, if you previously have not met the gray?
Is it possible to know what it feels victorious if we have never felt the failure?

As darkness becomes light, ...
As the clouds comes the rainbow ...
As ice turns to spray ...

Sadness, without really knowing why, becomes joy, ...
Or a good day, indifference or even hatred, are transformed into love, ...
Love that, in turn, can bring frustration,
... or impatience,
... or more joy,
... or more love ...

Funny how emotions are changing, transforming and mutating go depending on many factors ...

is curious to feel how, what we have endured, sometimes we do enjoy, without having changed substantially ...

is curious to hear how, after the ringing of the rain falling on the ground full of leaves of the forest, makes its way to the murmur of the river water to slide over its course, while the background is awakened Pizpireta twittering of the birds of forest over the trees ...

is curious to hear how, after the breathtaking beauty of the lightning, there is the sound of thunder, and after that, we have that sense of stillness and peace, until a new lightning location to another thunder ... to perceive the end, the smell of wet tells us that the storm has ceased ... and that a new day, full of light and splendor, is presented before our eyes ... a new day full of possibilities, full of exciting emotions to feel and enjoy ...

Do you think it's a good idea to monitor a storm in the summer? Or control the course of the river at will?

So why do we insist on scrutinizing and judging our emotions? Let's face it without trial, without fear ... are there because they are part of us, because they are part of our essence as human beings, and never wanted to hurt us ... we simply go along to accompany our lives, to make us see, feel, hear ... live ... Let us live our emotions

naturally, without being interpreted incorrectly, giving us permission to accept and realize that emotions are part of ourselves, are part of our being, our most essential ... let the drops of rain will give way to our rainbow inside to finish sniffing the fresh smell of wet indicates that the storm has ceased ... and finally comes the calm ...

Vivamos ...

feeling ...

... And who said sadly?

:-) Be happy.
