Muscles?

Hello Dariusz, I was wondering about the advantages/disadvantages of building muscle for the GS and also which muscles specifically, thanks Shawn

I do not really want to disappoint you, Shawn - but my researches concern only hard structure of the human organism, which is like licking only the top of the iceberg of biomechanics.
I have too little time to devote and don't consider myself wise and competent enough to go under water surface to explore the whole iceberg.
Thus, I prefer to say this and not to pretend I know something and give bad advices.

Cheers

Dariusz, thanks for your honesty, some people would give a shot at it, rather than to just say, I don't know. I would think that it would help for sure, Mr. Hogan himself had a drawing of the muscle groups used, I would think you could do good to focus on these, but just like anything else could maybe be taken too far. The famous video of him on the beach w/his friends you can still see the speed at which he can still swing, some swings in his prime when he was really "getting after it" there was a noticeable difference. The club after all, is a weight that we are swinging, the faster we swing it, more weight we will be feeling. just thinking. thanks Shawn

Ahh, definitely ! If only I could devote all my time without worrying about daily problems I'd at least try to explore the muscular/ligamental level or hire real experts to work only on given golf subjects.
It would make the whole trip much more challenging and fascinating.
Maybe some day...someone will go this route Smile

Cheers
