034: Understanding Force Plates and Ground Reaction Forces


Listen Later

How much do you really know about the forces under your feet during the golf swing? In this episode, Erik, Jayson, and Tyson explore how force plates reveal what golfers can’t see: the timing, direction, and magnitude of ground reaction forces that drive efficient movement. They discuss how using live feedback helps players feel and rehearse proper pressure shifts, why static weight and dynamic force aren’t the same, and how changing a player’s forces can reshape their entire swing. Whether you’re an instructor or an avid golfer, this conversation uncovers how understanding the invisible side of your motion can unlock better speed, balance, and consistency.
