Got it.

知道了

Uh-oh.

啊哦

No way.

不可能

How often do you stand over the golf ball with one, two, three, four and five things?

你有多少次站在高爾夫球上方，拿著一個、兩個、三個、四個和五個東西？

How's that working out for you?

你覺得怎麼樣？

Look, if you're anything like my students, they come to me, they want to know how to hit drivers straight.

聽著，如果你和我的學生一樣，他們來找我，想知道如何把球打直。

They want to know how to be more consistent with their drive.

他們想知道如何使自己的驅動力更加穩定。

They want to know how to add some more distance.

他們想知道如何增加距離。

But the problem is, what they try to do, they're trying to almost make it too complicated.

但問題是，他們試圖做的事情，幾乎把事情搞得太複雜了。

They're trying to hit so many different positions, and they're ruining their golf swings.

他們試圖打出很多不同的姿勢，結果毀了他們的揮杆。

And look, I don't know about you, but I don't know what age you are, but most of us are different ages.

聽著，我不知道你的情況，但我不知道你的年齡，但我們大多數人的年齡都不一樣。

We've got different levels of flexibility, and it's really important that I help you find your swing so that you can, in a sense, swing in such a way that is natural to you, and you can generate natural power and hit it further with ease.

我們有不同程度的靈活性，我幫助你找到適合自己的揮杆方式真的很重要，這樣你就能在某種意義上以自然的方式揮杆，產生自然的力量，輕鬆地打得更遠。

So in this week's video, what I want to do, I want to share with you some of the things that I share with my students to help them, in a sense, develop their own natural way of swinging so they can generate effortless power whilst giving them that extra bit of accuracy too.

是以，在本週的視頻中，我想與大家分享一些我與我的學生們分享的東西，從某種意義上說，幫助他們發展自己自然的揮杆方式，這樣他們就能產生毫不費力的力量，同時還能給他們帶來額外的準確性。

Before I get into the video, look, if you're new to the channel, if this is your first lesson of mine, please consider subscribing.

在我開始講視頻之前，如果你是頻道的新用戶，如果這是你第一次聽我講課，請考慮訂閱。

I release videos just like this one every single week to try and help you improve your game.

我每週都會發布這樣的視頻，以幫助大家提高比賽水準。

Plus, you never have to remember a thing.

此外，你永遠不必記住任何東西。

I'll always put a free downloadable practice guide in that description box below.

我總是會在下面的描述框裡放上一份可免費下載的練習指南。

So let's now start to help you hit drive a bit more consistently and gain some extra yardage with a swing that's going to work for you.

現在，讓我們開始幫助你更穩定地擊出開球，並用適合你的揮杆方式獲得一些額外的碼數。

So there are two stages to this.

是以，這有兩個階段。

The first stage, with any power, and this is something that I just don't see with amateur golfers enough, is they make it look too difficult, right?

第一階段，對於任何力量來說，這是我在業餘高爾夫球手身上很少看到的，他們讓它看起來太難了，對嗎？

So the first thing I want you to do is I want you to have a lovely, relaxed, effortless golf swing.

所以，我想讓你做的第一件事，就是讓你的高爾夫揮杆動作可愛、輕鬆、毫不費力。

And to do that, stage one, you have to learn to let go.

要做到這一點，第一階段，你必須學會放手。

And kind of what does that look like?

這看起來像什麼？

Well, if I show you this as a simple analogy, I often get a person to do this.

好吧，如果我給你打一個簡單的比方，我經常讓一個人這樣做。

You grab a golf club and just swing it.

你拿起高爾夫球杆就揮杆。

Now as I'm doing this, this club is flowing through beautifully, freely.

現在，當我這樣做的時候，這個俱樂部正在美麗、自由地流淌著。

It's effortless.

毫不費力

I'm forming a pretty decent circle, right?

我形成了一個相當不錯的圈子，對吧？

And a consistent and repeatable action, right?

而且是始終如一、可重複的行動，對嗎？

Yet I'm not controlling it.

但我並沒有控制它。

I'm just letting it go.

我只是順其自然。

Yeah?

是嗎？

A lot of golfers in their swing look more like this.

很多高爾夫球手的揮杆動作都是這樣的。

They're trying to create a perfect circle.

他們試圖創造一個完美的循環。

They might make a reasonable effort, but what do you notice about the club?

他們可能會做出合理的努力，但你能注意到俱樂部的哪些方面？

It's traveling slower, it's more jagged, it's more effort to do this, and I guarantee it's less consistent.

它的行進速度更慢，鋸齒更多，做起來更費力，而且我敢保證它的穩定性更差。

So it's counterintuitive to let go.

是以，放手是違背直覺的。

And that is stage one.

這就是第一階段。

So what I'm going to show you how you do that, first of all, while still having some control, but obviously letting go, you don't want to be kind of hitting the ball much further, but you're going right and left, which will bring us into stage two.

所以，我將向你展示如何做到這一點，首先，你要保持一定的控制力，但顯然要放手，你不想把球打得更遠，但你要左右開弓，這將把我們帶入第二階段。

And I'll show you how the body can support that naturally to help you hit it straighter, too.

我還會告訴你身體如何自然地支持這一點，幫助你把球打得更直。

So let's start with this feeling of what you need and how you need to basically learn how to let it go.

所以，讓我們從這種感覺開始，看看你需要什麼，以及你需要如何從根本上學會如何放手。

I'm going to bring Leo in just for this one.

我要把里歐找來，就為了這一次。

So, Leo, do me a favor.

里歐，幫我個忙

So what I want you to do is I want you to grab hold of this golf club.

所以，我要你做的就是抓住這根高爾夫球杆。

And this is how you start to learn how to let go.

就這樣，你開始學會如何放手。

So all we're doing, Leo, is just pull the club around.

所以我們要做的，李奧，就是把球杆拉來拉去。

And see if you can move it.

看看能否移動它。

So you can't move out of my hands.

所以你不能離開我的手。

And what do you notice when you're pulling this?

當你拉這個的時候，你會注意到什麼？

Yeah, really stiff.

是的，非常僵硬。

Really stiff.

非常僵硬。

It's kind of like there's no play in my arms.

就好像我的手臂沒有彈力一樣。

All I'm going to do is this.

我要做的就是這個。

And you can get your partner to do this almost before you tee off.

幾乎在開球之前，你就可以讓你的搭檔這樣做。

You'll be amazed at how much tension you've got.

你會驚訝於自己的緊張程度。

Right, now watch.

好了，現在看吧。

Try and pull it out of my hands.

試著把它從我手裡拽出來。

Move me around.

把我移開

Yeah, way easier.

是啊，簡單多了。

You can move me all over the place, right?

你可以把我移到各個地方，對嗎？

Yeah.

是啊

So Leo can move me all over the place, but you can't pull the club out of my hands, can you?

所以里歐可以把我移來移去，但你不能把球杆從我手裡拔出來，對吧？

No.

不

Okay, awesome.

好吧，真棒。

Good, buddy?

好嗎，夥計？

That's all right.

沒關係。

So what I've got here is I have a firm enough grip to hold on to the golf club, but I've got beautiful play in my arms.

所以我現在的情況是，我有足夠的力量握住高爾夫球杆，但我的雙臂卻能打出漂亮的球。

My arms are relaxed.

我的手臂很放鬆。

My grip is firm enough that I've got some control of the club head.

我的握杆足夠牢固，是以我對杆頭有一定的控制力。

Just start with that as stage number one.

就從第一階段開始吧。

Learn to let go.

學會放手。

And I get it.

我明白了。

You're going to be out there.

你要去那裡。

And when you do this for the first time, it's going to feel a bit nerve-wracking.

當你第一次這樣做時，會感到有點緊張。

You know, you've lost control of the driver.

你知道，你已經失去了對駕駛員的控制。

It feels very strange to suddenly let go.

突然放手的感覺很奇怪。

And this will feel very much out of control.

而這種感覺會非常失控。

But just imagine this.

但試想一下

You've got maximum control, right?

你有最大的控制權，對嗎？

So let's start with letting go.

所以，讓我們從放手開始。

So the first thing I do is I'll show you this.

所以，我首先要做的就是給你看這個。

A lot of my students are quite stiff.

我的很多學生都很死板。

They don't have a lot of flexibility at times, so I exaggerate.

他們有時不太靈活，所以我誇大其詞。

So I'm going to lock my body in place to start with, and we'll see how far we can hit it with just a beautifully free, flowing motion of this golf club here where I'm swinging my arms nice and relaxed, but keep my grip firm enough that I've got some control over that head.

所以，我打算先把身體鎖在原地，然後我們看看用這根高爾夫球杆的優美、自由、流暢的動作能打多遠，在這個動作中，我的手臂揮動得很好，很放鬆，但握杆要足夠穩，這樣才能控制住杆頭。

So get myself set.

那就準備好吧。

Lock my body in place.

把我的身體鎖在原地

Barely move.

幾乎一動不動

Look, just one in the club head. 253 yards.

看，球杆頭中了一球。253碼

And that just felt easy, right?

感覺很輕鬆，對吧？

And for a lot of players who don't have the mobility, this is the 100% place to start.

對於很多不具備行動能力的玩家來說，這是一個 100% 的起點。

So build some freedom in.

所以，要給自己一些自由。

It can be scary at first.

一開始可能會很害怕。

It feels out of control.

感覺失控了。

You might not hit it as good as that to start with, but this is stage number one.

一開始可能打得沒那麼好，但這是第一階段。

Learn to feel a beautifully flowing golf club, and then we'll move on to stage number two and how we add more control to this.

學會感受高爾夫球杆的優美流暢，然後我們將進入第二階段，瞭解如何在此基礎上增加更多控制。

So now you've got this lovely, relaxed, flowing kind of motion.

現在，你已經有了這種可愛、放鬆、流暢的動作。

Your arms are swinging freely.

雙臂自由擺動

It's going to feel a bit out of control, so let's add some control to it by showing you how the body is going to help you, right?

這會讓你感覺有點失控，所以讓我們通過向你展示身體將如何幫助你來增加一些控制，對嗎？

So the very first thing to do is we need to add in an arc to this golf swing, a proper arc where the body, in a sense, helps this club swing on an arc, okay?

所以我們首先要做的就是在揮杆過程中加入弧線，一個適當的弧線，從某種意義上說，身體可以幫助球杆在弧線上揮動，明白嗎？

Now, the simplest way of doing that is I don't want you to force the arc and put it into a position.

現在，最簡單的方法是，我不希望你強迫弧線，把它放到一個位置上。

I want you to just naturally keep that lovely, flowing swing.

我希望你能自然而然地保持可愛、流暢的擺動。

So take your trail pocket, move your trail pocket as you're swinging backwards towards the target.

是以，在你向目標後方揮杆時，拿起你的蹤跡袋，移動你的蹤跡袋。

And what this does is it creates, look, a rotation, and as you rotate, the club swings on an arc.

這樣做的目的是產生旋轉，當你旋轉時，球杆就會在弧線上擺動。

I'm not putting it there, yeah?

我沒有把它放在那裡，是嗎？

A lot of players, unfortunately, without realizing, maybe because they just want to hit the ball straight, they stay still, this pocket stays what it is, they pick it up with their arms, and they're chopping down on the golf ball.

不幸的是，很多球員並沒有意識到這一點，也許是因為他們只想把球打直，他們一動不動，這個球袋保持原樣，他們用手臂把球拿起來，然後向下劈高爾夫球。

As I'm swinging here, look, I'm swinging the club freely, watch, and then there we go, on an arc.

當我在這裡揮杆時，看，我在自由地揮杆，看，然後我們走了，在一個弧線上。

Where's my pocket going?

我的口袋去哪兒了？

Going towards the target, and away we go, right?

向著目標前進，我們就出發了，對嗎？

So that's the first thing.

所以這是第一件事。

Get that club swinging on an arc simply not by controlling it, but by just allowing your pocket to turn towards the target.

讓球杆在弧線上揮動，只需讓球袋轉向目標即可，而無需控制球杆。

Now we've got an arc, right?

現在我們有了一條弧線，對嗎？

So there's the first thing.

這就是第一件事。

But that alone won't get you striking it, right?

但僅憑這一點，還不足以讓你怦然心動，對嗎？

We need to, in a sense, get what I like to call the lower body working effectively.

從某種意義上說，我們需要讓我所說的下半身有效工作。

See, the better players, the natural players, the effortless players, you'll see them when they come into impact.

你看，更好的球員、天生的球員、不費吹灰之力的球員，當他們發揮出影響力時，你就會看到他們。

As they're coming down, this weight, this pressure is on this left foot, this lead foot here.

當他們下來時，重量和壓力都壓在左腳上，也就是這隻腳。

This is their platform that they're going to use to bang, hit the ball from.

這是他們用來擊球的平臺。

If you slice it or hook it, what I see all the time is you may create this arc.

如果你把它切開或鉤住，我經常看到的情況是，你可能會產生這樣的弧線。

You may be swinging with momentum, but at the top of your swing, your weight's over on this side.

你揮杆時可能有動力，但在揮杆頂端，你的重心在這一側。

Now the problem is it's too late.

現在的問題是為時已晚。

From here, look, the slicers will try and hit the ball by coming over the top.

從這裡看，削球手會嘗試從上方擊球。

The hookers will, oh, I've got to get forward.

妓女們會，哦，我得往前走了。

They slide, they get stuck underneath, and they start hooking this golf ball.

它們滑動，卡在下面，開始鉤住高爾夫球。

So how can you go about naturally organizing this motion in a way that's going to be more consistent?

那麼，如何才能以一種更加連貫的方式自然地組織這一運動呢？

So what you can do is grab a bag of shopping or something fairly heavy, and learning to kind of transfer weight from one's foot to the other, it's too complicated.

所以，你能做的就是拿起一袋購物袋或相當重的東西，學習把重量從一隻腳轉移到另一隻腳，這太複雜了。

You can't think about that, right?

你不能想這些，對嗎？

So you need to learn what it feels like, and this, for me, my students love because it's really effective and transferable to a golf club.

是以，你需要學習它的感覺，對我來說，我的學生們很喜歡這一點，因為它真的很有效，而且可以運用到高爾夫球杆上。

So grab a bag of shopping, and if you do this with me, it'll really, really help.

所以，拿上一袋購物袋，如果你能和我一起做這件事，那將會非常非常有幫助。

So we said, look, there's the arm swinging away.

所以我們說，看，那隻手臂在搖晃。

We've got the trail pocket now, look, moving, look, towards the target.

我們已經找到了蹤跡袋，看，移動，看，朝目標移動。

But notice here, notice how now you'll see almost my body, almost working my lower body, working towards the target before the bag gets to the top of the swing.

但注意這裡，注意現在你會看到我的身體，幾乎是在下半身發力，在球袋到達揮杆頂端之前就已經朝著目標發力了。

Why is it doing that?

為什麼會這樣？

It does it naturally because what's happening is I swing the bag, my body, look, doesn't want to keep going this way because it'll lose balance.

它能自然地擺動，因為我擺動袋子時，我的身體不想繼續這樣擺動，因為它會失去平衡。

It's almost, in a sense, counterbalancing the weight of this club and getting itself ready, look, to sling on the way through.

從某種意義上說，它幾乎是在平衡球杆的重量，讓自己做好準備，看，準備在途中吊球。

So notice this, at no stage am I trying to put the club in position, right?

所以請注意，我在任何階段都沒有試圖讓球杆就位，對嗎？

When people talk about lag in a golf swing and power, lag is created naturally by doing this.

當人們談論高爾夫揮杆中的滯後和力量時，滯後是通過這樣做自然產生的。

Look at this in action.

看看這個行動。

So you'll see the great players, they're coming in with lag.

所以，你會看到那些偉大的球員，他們帶著滯後性來了。

Look, one and two.

看，一和二。

It's like I don't have to try to create lag.

這就好像我不用刻意去製造滯後感。

It's created by momentum going this way.

這是由向這邊發展的勢頭造成的。

If I stop now, the club is going to release in a flick position.

如果我現在停下來，球杆就會以輕彈的姿勢鬆開。

But now I've got that sensation of throwing the shopping, as it were.

但現在，我有了一種購物的感覺。

Suddenly, it will start to transfer to my golf club.

突然間，它就會開始轉移到我的高爾夫球杆上。

Now, using a bag like that, it's just instant.

現在使用這樣的袋子，簡直就是立竿見影。

Every student gets it, and the more effort you put into it at home, the quicker you'll get this.

每個學生都會明白這一點，你在家裡付出的努力越多，你就會越快明白這一點。

On a golf course, I sometimes get people to kind of put head cover on the driver, simply to add weight to the head.

在高爾夫球場上，我有時會讓人們給發球木杆套上杆頭套，以增加杆頭的重量。

Because when you've got something heavy, you're less likely to use your hands to try and put it into place.

因為當你拿著很重的東西時，你就不太可能用手去把它放好。

You're more likely to swing the heavy weight by using that kind of body.

使用這樣的身體，你更有可能擺動重物。

One and two.

一和二

One and two.

一和二

Pocket to target, and two.

口袋瞄準目標，二是

Look at that there.

看那邊。

One, look how I'm moving, and then swing.

第一，看我怎麼動，然後搖擺。

You're creating natural momentum with no extra force.

你創造的是自然動力，不需要額外的力量。

The moment of truth.

關鍵時刻

How do you put this effortlessly into hitting your golf shots?

如何將這些毫不費力地運用到高爾夫擊球中？

The first thing you've got to do is you're going to have to let go.

你要做的第一件事就是放手。

You're going to have to give up control to get it.

你必須放棄控制才能得到它。

The first thing I love to do is, again, ask myself, are my arms relaxed?

我喜歡做的第一件事，就是再次問自己，我的手臂放鬆了嗎？

My grip's firm, but are my arms relaxed?

我抓得很緊，但我的手臂放鬆了嗎？

Yes, they are.

是的，就是這樣。

You could just hit shots to start with like that.

你可以一開始就這樣打球。

Then what I love to do is, look, I'm going to start with a few swings.

然後，我喜歡做的事情是，聽著，我先揮幾下。

I'm going to feel my right pocket working towards the target.

我會感覺到我的右口袋在向目標移動。

Now, if I do this and add some momentum into this backswing, my body will already naturally, if there's momentum going this way, it will automatically want to resist that and go towards the target.

現在，如果我這樣做，並在上杆中加入一些動力，我的身體就會自然而然地，如果有動力往這邊走，它就會自動想要抵擋住這一動力，並朝著目標前進。

If I'm too careful, which I see a lot of players, just like shopping, you just won't do that.

如果我太小心，我看到很多球員都是這樣，就像購物一樣，你就不會那樣做。

It's just not natural.

這太不自然了。

Be brave.

勇敢一點

Get that sensation of a flow.

獲得流動的感覺。

Trail pocket to target.

小徑袋瞄準目標。

Just feel some momentum.

只是覺得有些動力。

You'll notice you're doing it if you start hearing that whoosh motion.

如果你聽到 "嗖 "的一聲，你就會發現自己正在做這個動作。

One and two.

一和二

That's the other thing I love to do is add one and two to this because the one and two bit is like, one and, I'm already now moving, and two.

我喜歡做的另一件事就是在此基礎上加上 "一 "和 "二"，因為 "一 "和 "二 "就像 "一 "和 "二"，我現在已經在動了。

It's like, throw the shopping back.

就像，把購物袋扔回去。

One and two.

一和二

There's a rhythm to all of this that you can really add to your momentum.

所有這一切都有一種節奏感，可以真正增強你的動力。

Now, as I stand on this golf ball, I really let it go.

現在，當我站在這個高爾夫球上時，我真的放開了。

I don't care where the ball goes to start.

我不在乎球從哪裡開始。

Be willing to basically give up some control.

願意從根本上放棄一些控制權。

Nice and smooth to start with.

一開始就很順滑。

Get myself set.

讓自己準備好

One and two.

一和二
