PGA Pro Marcus Edblad debunks the 'epidemic' of over-coaching ground forces and leg work. He introduces the 'Circle of Speed' concept, demonstrating that if the club follows a proper circular path on the side of the body, the legs and hips will automatically function as silent helpers to provide power and stability.
Legs are 'silent helpers' that react to the club's motion rather than driving it independently.
Avoid a 'straight back, straight forward' swing path; the golf swing happens on a circle to the side.
Forcing hip rotation often leads to a loss of sync, power, and directional control.
To generate upward speed (like long drivers), you must naturally squat 'down' first as part of the circle.
Trust your hands and the circle; the lower body will find the most efficient way to support the motion.
