This stretch is amazing, got me to hit a 78. The back 9 didnt go as well though.

[@mattpaulk3772]

Glad I found your channel Joe. I realize flexibility is the primary inhibitor of my game, not my mechanics.

[@09Youba]

Great information Joe. Former Golf Coach at 75 and still a single digit. Stretch everyday and always looking for new methods.

[@garynunez3108]

I am going to try this out. Looks like it will work well. I will let you know 😊

[@jochan352]

Flexibility is so important and in ONE stretch, it showed me where my limitations were. Thanks Joe.

[@marcussheldon9220]

Brilliant please more on golf stretching. We all need that 90 degree turn and learning to keep the left arm straighter through out the swing more on that please and stretching more for seniors not so flexible. Thanks 🙏

[@danieldesouza4383]

Stretch felt great and can not wait to add it to my normal stretching routine before my golf games. Hoping this takes my golf game to a new level.

[@shersagefitness]

So perfect. I am creating a golf fit class yoga-based and this may be the best piece of research I have come across. Going to subscribe. Thank you for the mentoring!

[@kylegreear11_22]

I do this stretch almost everyday now. Golfing 5-7 days a week as well. Helps with that upper body shoulder movements.

[@senseipaans]

Good stretch!!! Like that it DOESNT isolate one body part. Its n compound movement just like the golf swing. Before i found your video, i was WONDERING what to stretch and how to stretch it to get more shoulder turn. NOW I KNOW! thanks.

[@joetherapy]

Thanks Stefan! Let me know if you want more golf content!

[@Sdschnaible]

I hope I'm not the only one that is not close to being able to sit up unsupported. 57 with history of back surgery and have been inflexible as long as I can remember. Just starting my stretching journey to help my golf. Thanks for the great videos!

[@jcmoye1]

Keep working at it, do some yoga stretches every night

[@tombarnes3961]

I am a 50 year old that plays a lot but as time goes on and age and flexibility lessen this stretch helps. Its hard but the body feedback tells the tightness. Thankyou for all your videos

[@dwaynerapley111]

I've just got into golf and have a athletic, muscular build. Struggling to even get into the base 90/90 but I'm determined to achieve this

[@bossdawg165]

Same here just realize this if you ever played football. A lot of the training we did was to strengthen our ankles and knees which is a direct contradiction of what we’re asking them to do here. I just started playing golf…how I found this video. No I’m trying to stretch in ways I’ve never stretch before. I feel stiff as a board

[@kevrobbo77]

always had a tight right side hip. felt it when playing football when stretching my left leg out. this was back in my 20's. now in mid 40's just tried the 90 by 90 and when the right leg in behind i struggle to stay upright. when left leg in behind its easy.

[@linebrisebois6908]

That is exactly what I was looking for. I will try this stretch for sure! Thank you! 😃

[@joetherapy]

Thank you for watching!

[@kenhartling5610]

Awesome! First stretch I have found that hits exactly the spot in my lower back that stiffens up from golfing. It hurts so good! Thanks!

[@kevrobbo77]

my chiropractor said my thoracic (middle back) was so right it was causing all my lower back pain. hes right to, since seeing him i never notice it hurting now. he works on my middle back and right hip for the most part.

[@lindamassa750]

That had a nice twist in that stretch - awesome !!!

[@just2watchvideoss]

I like the way you explained things, even the extra sauce at the end. Good job.

[@minhalchatoo5825]

Thanks. Great Stretch to get extra rotation in the backswing!!

[@oscardelvalle6311]

Hi Joe, I am experiencing lower back and right hip pain after my golf rounds. I thinks this video can help, agree? Any other recommendations?

[@joetherapy]

Check out this video I did with Clay Ballard for Top Speed Golf. See how you perform on the assessments and that should get you started in the right direction! kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5Cmmq2ddr98ftU

[@tonebassin2571]

This is awesome. I have been struggling with my backswing. I am 47 yrs old but pretty good shape. Only been playing for 1.5 yr. But I am stiff as a board 😆😆And this is what I have been lookong for .Thank you

[@ldm616]

Love it. Hold time and/or reps?

[@jcmoye1]

Awesome stretch you are amazing. Thank you.

[@j.d.7050]

Is it beneficial to stretch the same way in the other direction as a right handed golfer?

[@golfplay3]

bravo. how about wrist mobility? medial lateral deviation work...

[@rozmarcy2282]

I'm a golfer. I currently am struggling with the 90/90 stretch. Your stretch makes a lot of sense.

[@toneabet6252]

great vid. im 33 with lower back tightness after playing golf. can do these stretches quite easily, but do feel a nice stretch as well. going to do them for a while and see how i go. thanks

[@alitoghral85]

Hey Tone, lower back tightness, is there a specific pain, is it chronic?

[@toneabet6252]

@@alitoghral85 the pain went away. I did these stretches for 2 days and forgot about it. Must have been something minor

[@WesAlticeGolfPerformance]

Nice video and stretch for golfers. I am a golf coach and would love to see some stretches to help with the internal and external rotation of the shoulders and well as some hip flexors. I come across a ton of students who sits down most of the day and they have lower crossed and upper crossed syndrome. Thanks Joe!!!!

[@robertlarsenjr5064]

I liked the slightly harder version of the push/pull with the hands. Arm bent as you are pulling. I would recommend having that hand being palm up. That's the position you need in the top of the golf swing....palm up like you're holding a tray. 💪

[@pedersen47]

Thanks Joe this is amazing. How often should I perform? Once a week?

[@ShaneChilly]

Daily ideally

[@edgarcamacho6885]

Great stretch. Took me about a month and a half to have my arms in front. Still working on this stretch because I have really tight hips

[@ejkite3961]

Great stretch. Do you suggest we do the opposite to improve lead hip rotation in the thru swing

[@plastibob]

Thanks for the great tip - do you do the opposite side as well to balance things out?

[@barking_mad6649]

I can barely sit upright when sat this way (over balance) , it's very tight in my right hip, but if I reverse the posture I find it much easier, but that's not the exercise 😁 should I just keep repeating the posture until I get better at it?

[@YogawithAliBeale]

I can't wait to try this thoracic mobility is such an issue for me.

[@abcmegan19]

Hello! Awesome video. Do you mind if this video is downloaded and shared to the country club members of various golf courses? We are doing a golf/tennis/health tip campaign for the beginning of 2021

[@dryguyrainproof]

Thanks Joe, these stretches certainly are very useful. They are helping my 50 yr old body!

[@jamesburwash5635]

Hi Joe I am 60 years old, just to confirm this is for a right handed golfer? your left leg is in front right leg behind. Anyway I injured my back last week and I am trying this stretch I could not even sit straight up ! Now trying it with right leg in front and left behind was much easier although I had to keep tight hand on ground. Right now I am trying other stretches to also increase my back flexibility. Yoga camel, knee to chest , knees side to side. Thanks for the video something to work on!

[@jcmoye1]

Yes

[@christiansarran4692]

I literally fall over trying to sit up. Anything to do to loosen up? Probably explains why I can’t turn.

[@spraggo0007]

Hi Joe thank you very much for posting this video...at this point I can not sit in the 90/90 position..could you please give me some exercises to free me up..I am stretching every day with a pole for rotation and flexibility but obviously need to free up my lower back mid back and waist area ..any help would be fantastic .kind regards. Spraggo

[@bh5606]

What do you have for forward swing?

[@joycegudding831]

What is restricting ability to bend right knee and hip back without holding myself upright?

[@mucked4u283]

With 1 thumbs down this surely is a triple AAA exercise. Great off season routine. Thanks

[@soccerlove_dad]

Great lesson! Thank you for sharing. It helped a lot.

[@rwaters254]

Joe, thank you so much for this KZbin Channel, I am so glad I found it! Quick Questionon the Greatest Golf Stretch- Does it matter if you are left handed or right handed? Or do you just do this stretch first with right leg in front and then reverse with left leg in front? Thank you , Randy

[@rwaters254]

I went ahead and purchased your book- Great stuff- I have reviewed and now working on getting maybe 10 stretches that are specific for golf muscles. thanks again.

[@MrACEguy09]

i struggle with getting my rear end flat on the ground before i push/pull. my hips are not flexible. Work in progress.

[@keithkeith2106]

I keep falling over. I can do it with my right leg at a 90 degree angle but can’t do the other leg at all. Thoughts??

[@AKhan.28]

Thank you for this! Really helps

[@ssantoshhernandez]

Great video

[@justinkowalsky7396]

What is the best way or stretch, for more muscular golfers to keep their lead arm straight. I either find my delts causing my arm to slight bend or muscle tightness in the arm itself

[@joetherapy]

First place I would check is T-Spine rotation especially if you're talking about the backswing. If your spine can't rotated your arm will bend to compensate.

[@justinkowalsky7396]

@@joetherapy yes the backswing, I have a tendency to slightly bend my lead arm when I get towards of end of my rotation. My delts do hit me under the chin but my t-spine rotation could be it. I notice that I drive more straight and consistent with greater rotation. I believe you may indeed be right. I need to find the correct stretch for that. Do you have a video on that?

[@TheAerisyn]

Do you do it on the other side as well? Or just 1 side depending on left/right handed ness...

[@niklaskil92]

You should probably always stretch both ways to avoid any imbalances especially since golf is already pretty one-sided. Not a doctor tho:)

[@ryanmanning5835]

So Crazy I can do the 90/90 split easy on one side but I can't even get my upper body vertical when I switch my legs around to the left crazy. Joe honestly why is that???

[@paulmullin6632]

how long for each stretch and how many

[@curtis397]

Just tried this. Thanks. Left knee had trouble getting to the ground. Felt pain and had to stop. Probably just my knee....

[@2758758]

thx

[@yfredpok]

It is impossible for me to take this position, which is too restrictive, do you have an alternative?( I am 75), Thanks

[@quantumpotential7639]

The goal is to get is to get into this full stretch at 125 years old. Then you will be pounding the ball over 300 yards shooting well below your age every time you tee it up. The good news is you have a half century to work on this and get super limber.

[@williamericksen3443]

Very good and hard for 80 yr old , but necessary

[@rmljr52]

Will build this into my workout routine. I thought I had a good turn until I looked at my swing in the mirror. i just can't stop falling over.

[@patten1962]

I Fall to the left. Can not stay up without using my left hand and arm.

[@spraggo0007]

Yes I am the same ..do you know what exercise is needed so we can get in position and not fall to the left.?

[@jefffawcett]

There’s no possible way I can get in that position without falling over

[@barking_mad6649]

​@@spraggo0007yeah, keep doing the 90/90 position, hold it as long as you can and repeat. Obviously don't push too hard but that will stretch you out.

[@user-he8xt3xe6p]

Weak hip flexors is all

[@sethmorales1519]

Hey people having this issue should possibly use a wall or something upright, I’m 35 and pretty flexible and half Asian lol so I don’t have much of a issue but after a long work week as a electrician I can’t and I use a wall till my hips are little more stretched out

[@oldguymotocross4866]

How long should you hold this stretch and how frequently should you do it? It feels outstanding!

[@chuckyl3978]

Are you still holding it ?

[@kc8923]

Im 63 with lack of hip and lower back mobility, wish id know all this 50 years ago! I cant even get into the starting position!😂😮

[@trsdos80]

This is pure genius, but it is going to take me a while I lean 45 degrees to my left when I try to get into the 90/90

[@joetherapy]

No rush! Work the 90/90 first and work your way up to the Upper Body Rotation😀

[@kirkhampton8843]

Wish I had this exercise 35 years ago. Makes me sorta sad I didn’t.

[@garylucas7050]

Other golf stretches are available 😂
