Swiss Ball Workouts - Level 2 (Dynamic Bounces)
Level 2 – Dynamic Bounces
Second gear of the workout is a balance-posture drill. Begin the exercise by sitting on the Swiss ball with arms outstretched, holding a pair of ‘spikey balls’ with a pistol grip (left). Then, with both feet on the floor and keeping a good upright posture, slowly bounce up and down. At the same time, raise and lower your arms so that your hands start to bounce onto the Swiss ball. I recommend you do the exercise three times, for 30 seconds apiece.
You should feel your shoulder girdle, trunk and leg muscles all working together and a sensation of getting ‘taller’. So it’s really ‘firing’ your core, postural muscles. You’re wakening the golf muscles and should feel your body getting into a strong, upright posture, which is essential for a good golf set-up.
