Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) swing analysis helps golfers improve their game by understanding the biomechanics of their swing and identifying any physical limitations that may be hindering their performance. This process involves a comprehensive physical screening and a detailed evaluation of the golf swing to create a personalized plan for improvement.
Here’s a more detailed look at the Titleist Performance Institute approach:
- Physical Screening:
- TPI certified therapists conduct a 16-point physical screen to assess posture, strength, mobility, and functional movement patterns. This helps identify any physical imbalances or restrictions that may be affecting the golf swing.
- Swing Analysis:
- The analysis often includes video recording of the swing and potentially 3D motion capture technology to analyze the sequence of movements, ground reaction forces, and other biomechanical aspects.
- Kinematic Sequence
- TPI focuses on the kinematic sequence, which refers to the coordinated movement of different body segments during the swing.
- Personalized Plan:
- Based on the screening and swing analysis, a personalized plan is developed that may include physical training, golf-specific drills, and adjustments to swing mechanics.
- Goal:
- The goal is to create an efficient, repetitive, and consistent swing that maximizes speed and accuracy while minimizing the risk of injury.
