00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.760
This loss of posture drill is called the catch-up bottle phenomenon and it can

2
00:00:04.760 --> 00:00:09.320
also work in the release section as well. I call it the catch-up bottle

3
00:00:09.320 --> 00:00:13.760
phenomenon which is basically when you slow something down other things can

4
00:00:13.760 --> 00:00:17.440
speed up, right? Imagine I've got a catch-up bottle and I'm trying to get the

5
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:21.320
catch-up from the end of the bottle down to the top. I'm gonna speed it up and

6
00:00:21.320 --> 00:00:24.680
then I'm gonna stop my hand and all the catch-up is gonna go flying. Same thing

7
00:00:24.680 --> 00:00:28.440
as if you're in a car and then you were to hit collide into something your body

8
00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:34.440
goes flying. Well it's a little less of a dramatic impact but if I'm swinging a

9
00:00:34.440 --> 00:00:39.840
golf club and my upper body starts to stand up essentially this shoulder just

10
00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:44.000
hit a wall and so what'll happen is when this shoulder hits a wall now my arms

11
00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:48.520
and my hands are gonna go. So that's why it's important during this transition

12
00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:49.280
to

13
00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:54.000
make sure that the upper body continues to flex down all the way through until

14
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:58.000
you get into the release which is when the upper body starts to really stand up

15
00:00:58.000 --> 00:00:58.000
.

16
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:04.240
On the 3D wherever you set up as you start down we'll tend to see more

17
00:01:04.240 --> 00:01:09.080
flexion until you get the club about parallel to the ground then when you go

18
00:01:09.080 --> 00:01:13.160
through the release your spine will start to extend even though it won't

19
00:01:13.160 --> 00:01:18.600
look like it because that right shoulder is gonna stay low. If as soon as

20
00:01:18.600 --> 00:01:22.680
you start down that body stands up it's gonna always cause those arms to

21
00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:23.120
release

22
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:28.800
too soon. Same thing if my elbow gets hit if my shoulder gets hit anything

23
00:01:28.800 --> 00:01:29.000
along

24
00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:34.960
the side if it stops or goes in reverse that's gonna cause the catch up to come

25
00:01:34.960 --> 00:01:38.160
out of the bottle and that's gonna cause an early release which is gonna mess

26
00:01:38.160 --> 00:01:38.300
up

27
00:01:38.300 --> 00:01:43.160
my contact. So there's more of a concept type drill just something to think

28
00:01:43.160 --> 00:01:43.360
about

29
00:01:43.360 --> 00:01:50.160
and you can apply it with say the delivery and go the upper body down any

30
00:01:50.160 --> 00:01:55.240
of the other drills that focus on transition and the upper body kind of the

31
00:01:55.240 --> 00:01:59.880
Jackson 5 the left shoulder down all those things will help support keeping the

32
00:01:59.880 --> 00:02:03.280
catch up in the bottle until the last second which gives you much more of a

33
00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:07.240
whip-through impact which gives you a lot more power. So focus on that for a

34
00:02:07.240 --> 00:02:12.040
good transition and don't spill your catch up.
