Episode Details

In this case study episode, Mike Bruno walks Michael Stant through what he calls the "50 plus golfers special": stiff low backs, locked up hips, and tight legs. They cover why golfers need about 40 degrees of hip internal rotation, why the low back ends up cheating when the hips can't move, and why popular stretches like the 90/90 can backfire. Mike breaks internal rotation into its three real components (rotation, extension, and adduction), lays out a three-phase plan from ground-based rehab to speed and power work, and shares a 15-week case where a golfer went from barely finishing nine holes to playing 27 pain-free in one day on a four-day golf trip. They also look at golf combine data showing one-sided deficits in hip, shoulder, and core.
