Band Split Stance Press
Split stance band press that pairs pushing strength with a trunk that refuses to rotate.

Why it matters for golf
The staggered stance narrows the base, so the core has to stop the band from twisting the trunk mid press. That is stability while the limbs move fast, the exact demand of the downswing.
Coaching cues
- Split stance, brace before the press.
- Press straight out to full extension.
- Hips and shoulders stay square to the front.
- Control the hands back to the chest.
Common faults
- Trunk rotating toward the band as the arms extend.
- Drifting out of the split stance rep by rep.
