Recommended Drills
1
Step Back Separation Drill
Focus
Hip and Shoulder SeparationExecution
From your normal stance, step your back foot behind your front foot, coiling your hips. From this coiled position, stride forward and swing, feeling the 'stretch' between your hips and shoulders.
2
Explosive Hip Turns (Fence Drill)
Focus
Explosive Hip RotationExecution
Stand with your back hip almost touching a fence. Take dry swings, focusing on rotating your back hip aggressively without hitting the fence. This forces the hips to clear and rotate powerfully inside the swing space.
3
Medicine Ball Rotational Throws
Focus
Kinetic Chain SequencingExecution
Stand sideways to a wall holding a light medicine ball. Load and separate, then explosively drive your hips to initiate the throw, releasing the ball into the wall. This trains the body to lead with the hips and transfer energy to the upper body.
