I was doing a golf lesson at my local golf club with instructor.

After hitting about 150 balls or something and driving back home in my car. I just had this terrible pain in my middle back / lower back.

My muscles are not like "super-weak" or whatever. I'm pretty fit average or better (percentile of age group 24 yrs) according to my personal trainer and recent fitness test.

The only muscle possibility seems to be imbalance. weaker back and abs muscles, in relation to my stronger legs and stronger arms and chest. Possibly...

I don't have much deformities that I know of!

Culprit could also be something in the golf swing.

I remember that the golf pro noted to me, that I raise my left heel at the backswing. It seems that many pro golfers do this also.

Could it be affecting the back pain issue though? Like a tilted hip turn causing pain of vertebrae? http://www.golfdigest.com/golf-instruction/2010-03/save-your-back-foley


Are you still having pain? Swinging a golf club seems to twist my back. Chiro straightens me back out and voila.

nah it went away next day.

But if I had gone playing 18 holes after 150 range balls, I couldn't have hit golf balls very well with the backpain.

    • Not really, no. I don't know the history, what you've worked on, what you've tried and moved away from… etc.
    • Day 9: 2/16/25 Putting through 50 mm gates from 11”. Swing pressure shift drills.
    • Definitely not a favorite… For some reason my wife and I started watching Cobra Kai. I know the original was pretty cheesy, but the inability of these people to get over shit that happened like 30 years ago is astounding. And these kids would be arrested, but they don’t even seem to get suspended from school. Would Danny not notice that Johnny’s son looks like Johnny? Etc.? Why would a completely different dojo that has the same name be “banned”? Oy. Not sure we’ll make it to season 2.
    • Day 139 - 2025-02-16 Weather led to a rescheduled GEARS lesson, so I used the time to work on my swing for 60 minutes or so. All downswing stuff. Some swings at 93 MPH. Most around 75-80.
    • A question I have is…this swing (fade, pull cut) does not  feel as good and easily repeatable as the draw swing we were working on previously.  I’m kinda in a weird spot where I do not know which direction will be the best to pursue. I like seeing a penetrating 5 yard draw but also like the thought of the fade not getting away from me as much.    Any thoughts on that?
