How to do it
Anchor a resistance band at chest height behind you and hold the other end across your chest with both hands.
Take your golf address position facing away from the anchor point.
Turn your chest away from the anchor as if starting a backswing, feeling the band's resistance.
Return slowly to start and repeat, keeping the arms relaxed throughout.
Goal
Strengthen the feeling of the torso initiating and powering the backswing turn.
Feel cue
Feel the resistance in your chest and back as you turn, not in your arms.
Mistake to avoid
Pulling with the arms against the band instead of rotating the torso.
