Vertical Torque: Positive & Negative Values Explained On Smart2Move 3D Dual Force plates
Smart2Move explains the technical nuances of vertical torque using 3D dual force plates. The video breaks down how positive and negative values represent rotational forces exerted by the golfer against the ground to power the swing.
Vertical torque represents the rotational force (Z-axis) created by the interaction between the feet and the ground.
Positive and negative values on the Smart2Move software indicate the direction of the twisting force throughout the swing.
Understanding torque values helps identify how efficiently a golfer is using the ground to rotate the hips and torso.
Proper vertical torque timing is essential for a powerful transition from the backswing to the downswing.
