October 12, 2023Kinetic Sequence refers to the order in which the different parts of your body move during a golf swing. An optimal kinetic sequence generally progresses from the ground up. Beginning with the feet, moving to the hips, then to the shoulders, and finally to the hands and club. This ensures that power is efficiently transferred through the body to the club and, subsequently, to the ball. If your arms move prematurely or out of this sequence, it can reduce power and accuracy of your swing. This sequence is crucial, not only for maximizing power, but also reducing the risk of injury by ensuring that the body moves in a coordinated and efficient manner. Below here are a couple more examples of kinetic sequence in other sports.
The kinetic sequence in throwing a baseball involves coordinated movement. Beginning with leg drive, progressing to hip rotation, followed by torso and shoulder rotation, then elbow extension, and finally wrist flexion. Efficiently, transferring energy through the body to propel the ball with power and accuracy toward the target.
The kinetic sequence in hitting a tennis ball involves initiating with lateral leg movement, followed by hip rotation, subsequently transferring energy through torso and shoulder rotation, then progressing to arm extension and finally wrist snap, ensuring a seamless energy flow through the body to impart power and spin to the ball.
