 HIT THE GOLF BALL FURTHER
I think just about everyone wants to hit the ball farther.  We have covered a lot of topics on how toLPGA_Driver_Swingincrease power and speed in your golf swing.  But we haven’t really gotten into the “why”.  Once you understand the why I believe it is much easier to apply those principles into your training.  To understand how power is developed, let’s first look at how muscles work. There are two parts to the activation of a muscle. First, there is the power supply. This is your nervous system. Without the signal from the nervous system, no muscle could contract. The name of the nerve that signals a muscle is called a motor nerve. Second is the muscle itself. A muscle is made up of hundreds of micro-contractile fibers, called myofibrils bundled into muscle fibers, which are bundled into muscles. The combination of the motor nerve and all the muscle fibers it innervates is called a motor unit. One motor nerve can actually supply thousands of muscle fibers.
