00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.280
This video is trained for the warm-up now there's kind of a hot topic in in
2
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:10.120
golf and motor learning where it's trying to distinguish between improved
3
00:00:10.120 --> 00:00:14.480
performance versus actual learning well one of the ways that I coach my golfers
4
00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:20.720
is to always be training for the warm-up which means if I if I go through a
5
00:00:20.720 --> 00:00:24.560
practice session and I'm hitting a bunch of balls and I'm doing blocked and I'm
6
00:00:24.560 --> 00:00:28.560
doing games and random and tests and all these different things but then I come
7
00:00:28.560 --> 00:00:34.000
to the golf course maybe not just the next lesson or the the next round or the
8
00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:38.510
next practice session but if each time I come to the golf course my warm-up isn
9
00:00:38.510 --> 00:00:38.640
't
10
00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:43.560
getting progressively better then it shows that I'm not really learning a
11
00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:47.600
whole lot it shows that I can I can design a drill where I get short-term
12
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:51.760
performance benefits but it doesn't lead to that long-term learning which is
13
00:00:51.760 --> 00:00:56.200
ultimately our goal. The reason we want to use the warm-up is because basically
14
00:00:56.200 --> 00:01:01.440
when I get there those first five or six swings are really going to reveal what
15
00:01:01.440 --> 00:01:05.680
is my pattern it's going to reveal what I'm trying to do with the golf club
16
00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:10.680
before I find these the rhythm that gives me the success for you know whatever
17
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:13.880
pattern I'm currently swinging. So if you're doing the drills and working on
18
00:01:13.880 --> 00:01:18.760
your pattern and the first few balls aren't getting better it's basically
19
00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:23.760
showing that yes the drills may be helping you play better that day but for
20
00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:28.260
the long-term effect you want to make sure that the warm-up is taking less and
21
00:01:28.260 --> 00:01:33.200
less for you to feel comfortable and that your first few shots in any given
22
00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:38.240
practice session are getting that much better. So that's one of the arguments
23
00:01:38.240 --> 00:01:42.800
against doing really long practice sessions. If you have the time it is much
24
00:01:42.800 --> 00:01:46.840
better to do shorter more frequent practice sessions because it's
25
00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:50.920
essentially like having four or five warm-ups as opposed to just having the
26
00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:57.720
one. So one piece of advice that I'll give to a lot of my students is you can
27
00:01:57.720 --> 00:02:02.240
go hit full swings for you know 20-30 minutes and then go work on putting and
28
00:02:02.240 --> 00:02:06.600
then come back to full swing it's almost like having a new starting point and
29
00:02:06.600 --> 00:02:10.400
you have to go through that warm-up again so you get to see what the brain
30
00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:14.040
actually took away from all the drills and all the games that you were trying
31
00:02:14.040 --> 00:02:16.320
to train.
