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).
