Why it matters for golf
The constant cable load hits the rear delts and mid back through the whole range. Those muscles hold the shoulder blades set, so posture survives a full round and the shoulders survive a full practice week.
Coaching cues
- Pull toward the face with high, wide elbows.
- Finish with the thumbs back and the blades squeezed.
- Control the weight back, no free fall.
- Tall spine, ribs stacked.
Common faults
- Dropping the elbows into a row.
- Rocking the torso to move the stack.
