00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.240
This rope drill is sequence training with the shallow stick. So ideally the
2
00:00:05.240 --> 00:00:09.920
shallow stick is somewhere around four feet long. This is only about three feet
3
00:00:09.920 --> 00:00:16.200
but you can you can take these concepts and you can get really specific. Go see
4
00:00:16.200 --> 00:00:21.520
a Mach 3 trained guy and they can help you with all the details or you can just
5
00:00:21.520 --> 00:00:26.600
kind of take the general concepts such as using a PVC or even a flexible PVC
6
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:31.220
and a rope. So what we're going to do with this one is we're going to get some
7
00:00:31.220 --> 00:00:38.080
sequence training by working on where we get this rope to smash or snap. So
8
00:00:38.080 --> 00:00:44.280
essentially if I if I do this I've got it anchored just off center with the
9
00:00:44.280 --> 00:00:48.560
camera but ideally you'll pretty much face the anchor point or have it just
10
00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:55.800
slightly down target or away from the target. So what I'm gonna do here is I'm
11
00:00:55.800 --> 00:01:00.320
just gonna get the feeling of the rope swinging back and forth and you'll see
12
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:06.960
my goal is to get the center of the rope to fly down towards the target. If I
13
00:01:06.960 --> 00:01:13.040
was to go early with the arms even if I go hard with my body on the way through
14
00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:18.800
if I go early with the arms the ripple will go more at the chair. If I wait for
15
00:01:18.800 --> 00:01:26.200
things I can get the ripple to go more at the target. So this gets a feeling of
16
00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:30.680
kind of waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting and then getting
17
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:36.480
down into this position before I then let go of the energy or let the arms
18
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:40.480
really go. For those of you who tend to get really aggressive and pulling down
19
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:44.360
this is gonna feel quite uncomfortable but that's that's a good thing when
20
00:01:44.360 --> 00:01:48.680
you're working on this sequence training. So I'm gonna swing it back and forth
21
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:48.800
a
22
00:01:48.800 --> 00:01:55.160
few times just to get the ripple going and then I'm gonna try and add some
23
00:01:55.160 --> 00:01:55.480
speed
24
00:01:55.480 --> 00:02:00.920
out towards the target. So that was a good one kind of like that and I don't
25
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:04.080
want to do too many reps the second I start to feel like I'm really slowing
26
00:02:04.080 --> 00:02:09.440
down it's no longer speed training so 10 to 15 seconds at the max if I'm going
27
00:02:09.440 --> 00:02:15.080
really hard more in the 4 to 8 second range. We'll do one more little set so
28
00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:24.920
get it going back and forth try to really get it to pop out towards the
29
00:02:24.920 --> 00:02:30.560
target. So if you're working on your sequence training a rope with a PVC
30
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:36.160
pipe can be a great addition additional tool the longer or a little bit longer
31
00:02:36.160 --> 00:02:40.720
PVC pipe then your golf club forces you to really shallow prevents you from
32
00:02:40.720 --> 00:02:45.440
getting steep keep these swings more from about chest height to chest height so
33
00:02:45.440 --> 00:02:50.120
not kind of a whole swing or else the rope may wrap around you it's really for
34
00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:54.000
working on that sequencing down and being very stable through the hitting
35
00:02:54.000 --> 00:03:00.120
zone. So try that to work on your overall golf swing sequence.
